Limni Mine
Limni Mine is an abandoned Copper and Sulphur Mine, which at some point in the future may become a golf course. With that in mind we thought we better take a look around before the golf balls start flying...
Pelathousa
We began our visit at Pelathousa. This is a semi-abandoned village on the hills near Limni Mine. Actually, to make this blog, we visited the site a number of times, and there are easier ways to get to the mine than from this location. Your best bet is to come up from Limni Pier.
Distant Mine
We start here though, because you get a nice view of the mine.
Distant Pool
We took this shot a couple of months ago. There was still some water in the lake then.
Limni Approach
The slag heaps are fascinating places, full of a myriad of interesting rocks and minerals. This odd lump looks very unusual though.
But First...
However, before we investigated the main mine, we took a slight diversion when we reached the bottom of the valley. We turned right, and drove through some trees before stumbling upon some more excavations.
