I was involved (safety) in a project with the B.G.S. and the University of Madrid whose intention was to find out where the source carbon originated and how it was deposited. A complete investigation and sampling of the mine was carried out over two days.

I have uploaded a PDF document about that visit and a summary of the results for those interested.
This rare deposit has turned out to be more unique than was ever thought.

If you have trouble finding it this link should take you there:
