In the municipality of Alpartir found some old silver mines which had a certain importance in the nineteenth century.
Are located in the "Mossan" hill in the materials for the Silurian-Ordovician essentially quartzites and slates and are related with failures with the formation of breccias where mineralization is located in the form of fillings and veins.
They have a somewhat complex paragenesis with sulfides and sulfosalts and alteration minerals that have formed a secondary mineralization type "gosssan".
