Some “mine men” in 1998 created the Mining Art Museum.
In this museum it is possible to see machines that were already used in mines at the end of the 1800s, such as the Ingersol BBR 13 drill or the flotation cells still used today in the ore beneficiation plants, as well as about 400 m of galleries that, begun in 1934 as a laboratory for students, became a safe air raid shelter in the last years of World War II.
