LocationThe town is located on the banks of the stream Arroyo Corrales, on the intersection of Route 28 with Route 29, about {{convert|95|km}} south of the city of Rivera. HistoryIn 1878 the mining company Compañía Francesa de Minas de Oro del Uruguay started looking for gold in the area, giving thus birth to the town.{{fact|date=August 2017}} From the end of December 1879 to the start of March 1880 Henry Küss visited Uruguay to evaluate the gold concession on the Arroyo Corrales. The company was looking for at least 8 million francs to develop the mines. Küss undertook a careful survey of the mineralogy. His report was unenthusiastic, saying only that it might be worth spending two or three hundred thousand francs on a more systematic study.[1] In 1902 the railway line was inaugurated, which operated until 1916, when the company ended. On 9 November 1920, it was declared a "Pueblo" (village) by the Act of Ley Nº 7.299,[2] and on 13 December 1994, its status was elevated to "Villa" (town) by the Act of Ley Nº 16.669.[2] In 1997 the mining operations resumed by the company Uruguay Mineral Exploration (UME).[3][4] PopulationIn 2011 Minas de Corrales had a population of 3,788.[5]
