Miniera di Rio (Miniera di Rio Marina), Rio Marina, Isola d'Elba, Livorno, Toscana, Italia
Located at 153-190 m a.s.l., it is the westernmost stope of Rio mine, extensively exploitated from 1860 to 1955.
The main vein consisted of limonite, with subordinated pyrite. A limited ore occurrence of Ag-rich galena was found and exploited at the beginning of the 20th century. Presently covered by dumps.
