"(Coming from Saint-Paulien). In the workings, approximately midway between Bellevue-la-Montagne and Voray on the N103, then the D21 left of the latter locality, nice samples of marcasite, pyrite, and uraninite." [Belot, 1978]
Ancient uranium mine, worked from 1955 until 1961, with a total output of 40 tons of uranium. Located about 4.5 km SE of Bellevue-la-Montagne, 600 m south of the bridge on the D 21 road, where it crosses a ravine.
