In the Jabalón riverbed, a few kilometers from this place, in La Fuente del Chorrillo, there is a mining operation. This deposit, called "El Chorrillo Mines", was worked until 1950 and was rich in Manganese.

The El Chorrillo Mines, located near Valenzuela de Calatrava in Ciudad Real, are known for their manganese mining, which was carried out until 1950. These mines are part of the rich mining history of the volcanic region of Campo de Calatrava, where iron and manganese deposits are found due to volcanic activity.
