Old small lead mine localized at the foot of the Southern Grigna Mount, at 700 meters of altitude. The geology is characterised by Esino limestone and the mine excavations are partially in carst cavities. Probably the better topological name can be "Monastero Valley Mine".

Note: the originally added coordinates (46.4513888889 N, 9.28472222222 E) seem to be wrong.
