Mina Sitio do Cobre, Minas dos Ingadanais, Tostão, Vila Velha de Rodão, Distrito de Castelo Branco, Portugal
In Sitio do Cobre mine are two wells with galleries / trenches aligned NE-SW, with well nº 1 to 140 m elevation and well nº 2 to 160 m elevation. It is possible to observe in these works, secondary copper minerals resulting from runoff. In well nº 2 there is a quartz vein under which the gallery follows. On the same side there is a dump with brownish yellow colour resulting from an erosion of the oxidation level (gossan) which extends up to the path that passes below the dump.
