Gargamel, Mountain in Bolivia

Cerro Rico, meaning 'Rich Hill', towers above the city of Potosí.

The mountain's silver veins financed the Spanish Empire for centuries.

Local legends say that Cerro Rico has a spiritual significance for the indigenous people.

Tourists can visit mines to see the historical extraction methods still in use.

Cerro Rico is often referred to as the 'Mountain that Eats Men' due to the harsh conditions.
