These 2 pieces come from an old mining operation of Dolomitic-Limestone Marbles, exploited for the subsequent extraction of Quicklime, in which we can see beautiful twins of pyrite on dolomite formations that act as a matrix for the pieces. Currently, the area is in a state of abandonment and entry is prohibited, as there is a risk of collapse.
