This iron-manganese ore dump was used as a depot for ore mined in the Kaminiza area (mainly from the Esperanza Mine) prior to transport via train to the harbor, where it was then shipped to the final destination (e.g., England, Germany, ...).
Note: While the specimens found there are from a dump in the Km 3 area, it should be clear that the initial mining took place in the Kaminiza area.
