The Asturian mining Basins are located in the two central valleys of the Nalón and Caudal rivers. At the end of the 18th century, the properties of hard coal from these valleys, studied by Jovellanos, among others, became scientifically known, and it began to be industrially exploited.
This region has developed a strong culture based on mining both in poetry and traditional music with songs like "Tengo de Xubir al Puertu" (I have to reach the mountain pass).

Las Cuencas mineras asturianas se localizan en los dos valles centrales del río Nalón y del río Caudal. A finales del siglo XVIII comienza a conocerse de forma científica las propiedades del carbón de hulla de estos valles estudiadas por, entre otros, Jovellanos, y empieza a ser explotado de manera industrial. Esta comarca ha llegado a desarrollar una marcada cultura basada en la minería tanto en la poesía como en la música tradicional con canciones como “Tengo de Xubir al Puertu”.
