For many miners committed in the forest of the route of the island of Anacoco, Sifontes municipality, is a blessing from God that next to the racket open pie for a month approximately, “has been bursting” another where they are removing important amounts from gold. In area of these two rackets a new town is already being satisfied to commerce that began to compete to each other. Generally, where the discovery arises from a racket or a rich gold deposit, the miner lays the main way by where moves and this way becomes in center of the movement and of side and side they are settled rustic constructions of little consistency, where the merchandise are exhibited, eats and to duer people to me.
