Uru Uru
Oruro (Hispanicized spelling) or Uru Uru is a city in Bolivia, about halfway between La Paz and Sucre in the Altiplano, approximately 3,709 meters (ca. 12,169 ft) above sea level.
It is Bolivia's fifth-largest city by population, after Santa Cruz de la Sierra, El Alto, La Paz, and Cochabamba. It is the capital of the Department of Oruro and the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Oruro. Oruro has been subject to cycles of boom and bust owing to its dependence on the mining industry, notably tin, tungsten (wolfram), silver and copper.
Several related tin-silver mines are found within the city of Oruro, including the San Jose, Itos, Socavon, Colorada, Tetilla, all hosted in the same intrusion of highly altered volcanic rock. The rapid growth of residential areas around the mines has resulted in shortage of space to dump waste rock. An old silver mine gallery accessed through the Virgen del Socavon church is open for tourist visits and hosts an underground mining museum.
