The economic activity that was considered as profitable for
Spain and sometimes or often the most hazardous or dangerous for the workers is
mining. Spain has abundant reserves of uranium, lead, mercury, tungsten,
fluorspar, magnesite, sepiolite, gypsum,
nickel, iron, natural gas and crude oil. This is the reason why Spain is
considered profitable when they include mining as their economic activity.
However, the side effect of this activity
is that it is not safe for those who are working in the mine.
