Panasqueira Mine - Mining Museum

Panasqueira Mine has been in operation for almost 120 years in a practically uninterrupted manner, with a strong impact on the identity, history and present society of the Beira Interior.

It is also a worldwide reference in the wolfram sector, not only for the quality and volume of production, duration and adaptability of exploration; but also due to the maturity of technical solutions for both underground exploitation and ore processing.

The possibility of recovering several metals contained in the slimes dams, especially wolfram, tin and copper, is being studied at the moment.
