The secret of the search for gold in Uruguay

Rivera, Jul 8 (EFE).- When Javier Carreira and his wife left Montevideo 14 years ago to embark on a new adventure in Rivera in the northeast of Uruguay, where they started a cattle business, they never imagined that they would end up falling for the search for gold.

This peculiar activity is part of the Gold Route in the city of Minas de Corrales, 96 kilometers from Rivera, where visitors can tour its gold mines, the Cuñapirú hydroelectric dam and the ruins of the first mining town from Uruguay. (Camera: CLAUDIO MONGE).
