Abstract
The Diccionario geográfico-estadístico-histórico de España y sus posesiones de Ultramar or simply Dictionary of Pascual Madoz, provides an interesting list of the main productive resources existing in Spain in the middle of nineteenth century. This period is located between the end of the pre-industrial era and the beginning of the industrial period and, therefore, it is very interesting from the points of view of the History of Technology and the Technical and Industrial Heritage. This work carries out the identification and study of the situation of the mining and industrial activities from the analysis of the contents of the mentioned source. In spite of the important restrictions that this supposes, this study allows to obtain an acceptable approximation to the structure, facilities and productive methods existing at that time. This work also tries to support the establishment of inventories of immovable assets and the development of new studies on heritage assets in the mining, pre-industrial and industrial fields.
