Korçë County (Albanian: Qarku Korçë), officially the County of Korçë (Albanian: Qarku i Korçës), is a county in the Southern Region of the Republic of Albania. The county borders on North Macedonia to the northeast and Greece to the southeast, the counties of Elbasan to the northwest, Berat to the west and Gjirokastër to the southwest. It is divided into six municipalities: Korçë, Devoll, Kolonjë, Maliq, Pogradec and Pustec.

NOTE (Ronald Werner, 2021):
I discovered a number of mines in the north of the county that have stayed under the radar, but seem to represent intense mining activity. I registered them as groups of mines, but registered the coordinates for most of them in the description. My best guess is that most or all of these are nickel mines.
