The mines of the Cerro Rico continue to be the main source of income for Potosí; however, there has not been a lot of change in the way mining is conducted. A visit to the mines will always cause the visitor to feel the same sensations that the miners feel, the solitude, abandonment, infinite darkness, and the presence of the ancestral divinities who watch over the lives of the miners.
