Abstract (EN): With this work, we intend to present three new Roman gold and tin mining areas in the upper Tâmega valley (Montalegre and Boticas municipalities, Northern Portugal). Through an interdisciplinary methodology, integrating different archaeological, geological and geospatial methods and techniques, we carry out an analysis and characterization of these mining areas. In the end, we make some historical considerations about them.
