The Great Orme Copper mine
The Great Orme Copper mine is one of the most well-known prehistoric mines in Europe. It saw activity from 3900-2900 years ago right through the Bronze Age. At its height, copper from the mine was used to make tools such as axe heads which have been found across western Europe.
Dr. James Dilley demonstrates and talks through the highlights of the copper smelting and bronze casting process to make a type I shield pattern Palstave axe head from the Acton Park phase (when the mines were most active).
