"This house belonged to my grandfather," The history of this old man named Fidel Mata, we have tried to count as home buying, home to kill him for refusing to evict, which is a very important pillar in Cerro de San Peter, or at least that's what he says. In recent years, some mining company has been running with the Cerro de San Pedro, San Luis Potosi heritage and Mexico, to extract more gold. Since 1542 the cornerstone was mining in the history of San Luis Potosi.
Now there are fewer than 100 people in the people they now can be seen "ghost town" those few people like Fidel fought unsuccessfully against foreign mining companies expoter the floor of this former mining town to steal the remaining gold But beyond the constant explosions to end the "hill" are destroying the buildings in this town, the vibrations have been slowly destroying the foundations of the poor and so aged town.
Fidel said: "This house belongs to the archbishopric, to Mining No!
