Polymetallic deposit.
Belongs to the Fenice Capanne - Serrabottini lodes.
Located ca. 50 km SW of Siena.
The mine of Accesa, formerly known as the Carpignone mine, exploited the meridian of the Fenice Capanne line. The prevalent minerals were sphalerite and galena, in smaller quantities chalcopyrite and pyrite.
