La baritina de TOBED

2012 
espanolEn la Cordillera Iberica existen numerosas mineralizaciones, de sulfuros metalicos y de baritina, que fueron explotadas y abandonadas por razones economicas. La mina de baritina de Tobed fue la mayor de todas y la ultima en ser abandonada. Constituye un ejemplo de un tipo de mineria actualmente desaparecida en esta region. Las mineralizaciones de baritina aparecen en materiales paleozoicos, con forma de filones y bolsadas, frecuentemente con contactos mecânicos y asociada a cuarzo, goethita y hematites. Los cristales de baritina, tabulares, pueden alcanzar los 10 cm de longitud. EnglishMineralization of metal sulphides and barite occur often in the Iberian Range; they were operated and abandoned by economic reasons. The barite mine of Tobed was the biggest in size and the last to be abandoned. It is a good example of a mining style that disappeared in this area. Barite mineralization occurs in Paleozoic materials, as veins and pockets; frequently with mechanical contacts and linked to quartz, goethite and hematite. Barite tabular crystals can reach 10 cm in length.
