Mina Guillermín, Grupo Minero Guillermín, Alcaracejos, Córdoba, Andalucía, España
The mineralization of the Guillermín mine fills a fracture with a strike of N 60º-80º E, with subvertical dip, about 1,800 meters long, and with a maximum thickness of 2 meters, hosted between mid-Ordovician slates and quartzites. It was one of the main Spanish producers of baryte until the middle of the 20th century. Currently it is abandoned, practically dismantled and its galleries are flooded.
La mineralización de la mina Guillermín se encuentra en el relleno de una fractura de dirección N 60º-80º E, de buzamiento subvertical, de unos 1.800 metros de corrida y con una potencia máxima de 2 metros, que encaja entre pizarras y cuarcitas del Ordovícico medio. Fue una de las principales productoras de barita de España hasta mediados del siglo XX. Actualmente está abandonada, prácticamente desmantelada y sus galerías están inundadas.
