    Tips

    The Naracauli washery, also called Brassey washery from the name of the owner of the mine, the Englishman Lord Thomas Allnutt Brassey, came into operation in the first months of the 1900s and was especially destined for the treatment of blendous materials (blende is the mineral from which industrially zinc and as a by-product also cadmium, gallium and indium).
    This plant was for the time one of the most modern in the field of mechanical preparation of minerals. Today, however, it represents to attentive eyes one of the many signs of the "violence" suffered by the Sardinian territory by foreign companies that exploited the mines without any benefit for the Sardinians.
