Name(s) in local language(s):
Miniera di Rio (Miniera di Rio Marina), Rio Marina, Isola d'Elba, Livorno, Toscana, Italia
(110-210m a.s.l.) The most recent stope opened in 1950 and closed in 1981 when mining exploitation in Elba stopped.
It is the most northern and also the bigger stope of the mine.
In this area, sporadic exploitations were made in the 19th century as well; they are referred to as "Falde di Monte Giove" (Mount Giove slopes).
The orebody is hematite with a pyrite bed.
