The plant where the fluorspar from the numerous Minersa mines is processed is the Torre Plant, which has been called by many collectors the 'Ana Mine' (it was even marked 'Mina Ana' on the map MinDat uses until edited). There is no mine there, just the ore ready for processing. Thus minerals found at that plant may come from any of the Minersa mines. If you know the date they were found it might hint at the mine it came from, but that is only a hint. Failing that you just have to label them 'Asturias' as they could be from so many mines.
