Almadén
Almadén (Spanish pronunciation: [almaˈðen]) is a town and municipality in the Spanish province of Ciudad Real, within the autonomous community of Castile-La Mancha. The town is located at 4° 49' W and 38° 46' N and is 589 meters above sea level. Almadén is approximately 300 km south of Madrid in the Sierra Morena. The name Almadén is from the Arabic word المعدن al-maʻdin, meaning 'the mine'.
Originally a Roman (then Moorish) settlement, the town was captured in 1151 by Alfonso VII and given to the Knights of the Order of Calatrava.
The mercury deposits of Almadén account for the largest quantity of liquid mercury metal produced in the world. Approximately 250,000 metric tons of mercury have been produced there in the past 2,000 years.
Mining
Almadén is home to the world's greatest reserves of cinnabar, a mineral from which mercury is extracted. Cinnabar was first used for pigment by the Romans. Later, the mineral was used mostly in medicine and alchemy during the Arab domination of Spain.

Almighty ten
by: SubbI think you'd never believe what i'm thinking? It's not related to you!
If my action just happens to elude them, then i'll do it again!
I don't know what they think they might do? And i don't care more than you
It's all over, i get rid of my tension, and i won't do it again
It's alright, it's really alright
Yeah it's ok, i said it's really ok
Won't you ever listen to what i have to say?
And i say; who am i talking to?
It's the almighty ten!!
Do these people care about your problems
They don't even know how!
And do they listen when you're about to shut down
Man, they just bring you down
[Chorus]
[Solo]
Ten is powerful, ten is just amazing
I think it's really bullshit
If i had a choice i would take it
In my mind, this is it!!!
[Chorus]
And i say; who am i talking to
It's the almighty.......TEN!
