![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Lavadero_de_Mina_La_Camocha.jpg/250px-Lavadero_de_Mina_La_Camocha.jpg)
La Camocha is a former coal mine which is seven kilometers south of Gijon, Asturias, Spain. It was operated by Minas la Camocha SA, which is affiliated with González y Díez SA.[1][2][3]
The former mining railway that once linked the coal mine of La Camocha to Veriña has been replaced by La Camocha Greenway, a trail for hikers and cyclists.[4]
The trade union movement Comisiones Obreras (CC.OO.) was born in the La Camocha mine.[5]
