Mineral del Monte, Mexico

Mexico

Mineral del Monte, Mexico shares 42 connections with 5089 places across 12 topics, anchored in silver mining, colonial history, and geology. Gold and silver were found there after the Spanish conquest of the 1520s, and by 1741 Pedro Romero de Terreros had launched a drainage adit to access deeper ore veins. The geology sits within epithermal sulfide fault veins, linking the town to places through shared science topics. A Cornish-born miner who emigrated to the town later managed the Mexican national football team in 1935.
