Santa Brigida mine (sb)<br> Sightseeing in Guanajuato picture - the oldest mine in the area. The site is at the end of a lonely dirt raod three kms northeast of town through fields of mesquite and cactus. At the entrance are these three sentry-like ovens that once smelted the mine's gold. They were built in the 16th century by Jesuit priests.
