Neves-Corvo mine is a zinc-copper mine 15 km southeast of Castro Verde, Portugal and 220 km southeast of Lisbon, in the district of Beja (Baixo Alentejo).
It has a dedicated rail link, the Ramal de Neves Corvo, to the main Linha do Sul railway, allowing export to the port of Setúbal and others.
The deposit was found in 1977 following the discovery of a gravimetric anomaly part of the geophysical study of the Iberian Pyrite Belt, south Portugal.
In June 2004, Somincor, which owns the mine, was acquired by EuroZinc from Empresa de Desenvolvimento Mineiro and Rio Tinto.
