Miniera di Faidallo, Cortabbio, Valsassina, Lecco


Baryte mine located near Cortabbio, active between 1868 and 2012.
The mines of this area have exploited a series of NNW-SSE trending baryte-rich polymetallic (Cu, Pb, Zn, Fe, Ni, Co, Ag, Bi, As, Sb) five-elements type veins (Vergani, 2019).

The workings include:
- Vittoria gallery, 654 meters asl.
- Speranza lower gallery, 696 meters asl.
- Speranza higher gallery, 710 meters asl.
