Description

Morphology

Entrance of 1.75 by 0.50 metres giving access to a single shaft almost 5 metres deep with an inclined base that connects with a shaft unexplored due to its narrowness and sounded to about 6 metres further. At the -2 level there is a platform formed by clastic materials embedded in the NE wall.
