Marmato, known locally as Colombia's "Golden Mountain," is the producer for which the region is named. The reputed wealth of Marmato is such that Colombia used it as collateral with the British government to secure funding for its war of independence against Spain. The mountain is thought to have been in continuous production by local miners for more than 500 years.
