Salamanca Province (unspecified origin)
Salamanca Province, Castile and León, Spain
Other hydrothermalSn
- Type
- Granite-related cassiterite veins and greisens
Collection cassiterites from Salamanca Province without specified deposit, and the Mari Tere mine. Coordinates of the city of Salamanca. Cassiterite studied by Marahrens (2021) for Bronze Age tin provenance. Indicative coordinates.
