    Hiking

    Here the iron ore, roughly extracted, was poured into the crusher to separate the large pieces of rock from the lumps and earth before reducing them to small pieces. At the bottom of the crusher, the raw material went on a covered conveyor mounted on pylons, towards the silo 250 meters away.

    Today a reduced-size hut recalls the old building and shows an installation of the crusher machinery.
