Mountain range of San Just

Nature · Escucha, Cuencas Mineras, Teruel

A mountain range of the Iberian System that closes the mining basin to the south, formed by a set of structural reliefs extending from west to east, with Cretaceous summits levelled between 1400 and 1500 metres and the Cabezo de la Trinidad as its highest point, at 1547; its steep escarpments overlook the coal-mining villages, and its surfaces link laterally with the high plains of the Llanos de Visiedo, the Altos del Zancado and Ejulve. In its district, near Utrillas, fossiliferous Albian amber has appeared, in which several new species have been described.
