1 day 2 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +2 Curved rocky forms of granite slopes
Explanation: After conducting some more research I found the following reference, bilingual SP and EN, and extremely technical. The “lanchares” (also called “llambrías”, this latter term totally unknown to me) are defined as “curved rocky forms of granite slopes”. I repeat I am no specialist in this specific area, Geology, but I hope I can help by posting this translation suggestion (with a middle confidence level) taken from the reference mentioned. This bilingual reference might be of great help to perhaps ascertain the meaning of “lanchares”: https://www.udc.es/files/iux/almacen/articulos/cd13_art05.pd... Las formas del modelado granítico ligadas a la estructura en lajas (Sheet structure) The forms of granite modelate linke to sheet structure Las formas rocosas curvas de las vertientes graníticas, denominadas en castellano “lanchares” o “llambrías”, se asemejan a los flancos de cabezas rocosas y “domos” y tienen su mismo origen. The curved rocky forms of granite slopes, called in Spanish “lanchares” or “llambrías”, are similar to the sides of “bornhardts” and “domes”, and have the same origin.

| Reference: Lancha and lanchar
Reference information: Since I am no expert in Geology and this area is quite far from my specialities, I prefer not to post an answer. However, I found your query terms in a US-American glossary that seems trustworthy to me. I hope it is helpful to you. https://archive.org/stream/dictionaryofspan00halsrich/dictio... UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA. A DICTIONARY OF SPANISH MINING TERMS LANCHA, (1) a thin and flat stone, see laja ; (2) a sort of hard freestone (piedra arenosa) ; (3) barge or lighter, see lanchon. LANCHAR, quarry yielding flat stones [lanchas (1)]. LANCHAR, quarry yielding flat stones [lanchas (1)].

For the benefit of all, I am posting an additional reference where the search term "lanchar" is clearly defined. https://dle.rae.es/srv/search?m=30&w=lanchar lanchar. 1. m. Cantera de donde se sacan lanchas. 2. m. Sitio en que abundan las lanchas. Lancha 1. f. Piedra más bien grande, naturalmente lisa, plana y de poco grueso.

Therefore, a "lanchar" can be actually both things, i.e. 1) a quarry, a kind of open mine where this kind of stones can be extracted and 2) a "place" where those stones are found naturally. According to the background information posted by Zosia, the second option seems to be the right one, so "quarry" would not be correct.
