Its purpose is to reward merits considered truly unique, carried out by both individuals and entities recognized for having provided services or activities of various nature for the benefit of the general interests of the Principality of Asturias. It is described in Law 4\/1986, of 15 May, regulating honors and distinctions, published in the Bolet\u00edn Oficial del Principado de Asturias number 125 on 30 May 1986. This rule replaced the regulations for the granting of honors and distinctions of the former Provincial Council of Asturias, of 29 October 1970. The medal has two different categories: gold and silver.[1]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The Medal of Asturias has an honorary character, since it does not confer any economic benefit. It cannot be given to the president or deputies of the General Junta of the Principality, members of the Council of Government, or any other senior official of the Asturian administration while they are in office. It can be granted posthumously, as long as no more than two years have elapsed since the death of the candidate. Its concession is limited to an annual maximum of two gold medals and six silver medals, not counting those presented for reasons of courtesy or reciprocity to Spanish authorities or those of other countries. It is mandatory to prepare a report or file, in advance, in which the merits that justify the appointment are affirmed. The medal is awarded by means of an agreement issued by the Council of Government, and must be published in the Bolet\u00edn Oficial. It is solemnly presented during the celebrations of Asturias Day\u00a0[es] on 8 September, the feast of Our Lady of Covadonga, the community’s patron saint.[2]The decoration consists of a circular gold or silver medal with a diameter of seven centimeters and a thickness of four millimeters. On its obverse, the coat of arms of Asturias is engraved in relief, accompanied by the inscription Principado de Asturias. The name of the awardee is written on the back.[1]Gold medal recipients[edit]1986: Felipe VI, prince of Asturias[3]1987: Basque rescue team that attended to victims in the Picos de Europa[3]1990: Severo Ochoa[3]1991: Sabino Fern\u00e1ndez Campo[3]1995: Asturias company of the Galicia Tactical Group of the Spanish Army[3]1995: Francisco Grande Covi\u00e1n[3]1998: Princess of Asturias Foundation\u00a0[es][3]1999: \u00c1ngel Gonz\u00e1lez Mu\u00f1iz[3]2001: Carlos Bouso\u00f1o[3]2002: Juan Cueto\u00a0[es][3]2002: Workers of the Cimadevilla Tobacco Factory[3]2003: Emilio Barb\u00f3n Mart\u00ednez (posthumous)[3]2004: Victims of the Madrid train bombings[3]2005: Graciano Garc\u00eda Garc\u00eda[3]2006: Fernando Mor\u00e1n[3]2008: University of Oviedo[4]2010: Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Mart\u00ednez Cachero\u00a0[es] (posthumous)[3]2011: Rafael Fern\u00e1ndez \u00c1lvarez (posthumous)[3]2011: Alberto Aza\u00a0[es][3]2012: Sergio Marqu\u00e9s Fern\u00e1ndez (posthumous)[5]2014: \u00c1ngel Garc\u00eda Rodr\u00edguez\u00a0[es][6]2015: Masaveu Corporation[7]2016: Jos\u00e9 Manuel Vaquero Tresguerres\u00a0[es][8]2017: Pl\u00e1cido Arango Arias\u00a0[es][9]2018: Asturian Centennial Centers[10]2018: Discoverers of the Tito Bustillo Cave \u2013 Ruperto \u00c1lvarez Romero, Eloisa Fern\u00e1ndez Bustillo, Jes\u00fas Manuel Fern\u00e1ndez Malv\u00e1rez, Pilar Gonz\u00e1lez Salas, Adolfo Inda Sanju\u00e1n, Amparo Izquierdo Vallina, Mar\u00eda P\u00eda Posada Miranda, El\u00edas Pedro Ramos Cabrero, Celestino Fern\u00e1ndez Bustillo (posthumous), and Fernando L\u00f3pez Marcos (posthumous)[10]2019: Vicente \u00c1lvarez Areces (posthumous)[2]2019: Central Mining Rescue Brigade\u00a0[es][2]See also[edit]References[edit]^ a b “Ley 4\/1986, de 15 de mayo, reguladora de los honores y distinciones del Principado de Asturias” [Law 4\/1986, of May 15, Regulating the Honors and Distinctions of the Principality of Asturias] (PDF).
