A cavity known only from the data provided by the residents of Alzamora at the end of the 60s of the last century and which at the time was not located. In September 2024 Josep Guarro and Joan Carles Juderias, taking advantage of a visit to the nearby Graller de les Comarques, located it and placed it correctly.
