Resumen

The Darro and Genil rivers have always been appreciated by the wealth of their mining placers and the Darro river has preserved its Latin toponym linked to aurum. The existence of alluvial gold mines is verified in several places located in the surroundings of Granada (Hoyo de la Campana, Hoyo de Mozas, Umbría de Jesús del Valle, Barranco de las Tinajas...). Other alterations in the hillsides near to these areas such as Los Hundideros de Cenes de la Vega, the Tajo de San Pedro, the west slope of the Cerro del Pajarillo or the south hillside of the Cerro de Montejate, have several difficulties to determine if they come from natural or human causes. As a result, it is needed a particular study of the erosive processes in these valleys, to determine if they have had a natural origin or if they have been linked to the mining of the alluvial gold.
