Parys Mountain has been used to mine copper ore since the early Bronze Age. A mass of copper ore was discovered in the late 1760’s, which prompted large scale mining, with yields so great that Amlwch came to dominate the world copper market for a decade. It became known as the ‘Copper Kingdom’. The mine owner, Thomas Williams became known as the ‘Copper King’. Even today, there is thought to be a reserve of about 6 million tonnes beneath the old mine workings.

Another one from Anglesey. Parys Mountain was mined for copper ore in the early Bronze Age, as shown by sub-surface debris nearly 4,000 years old revealed during excavations in 2002. Since then access has been regained to the sealed underground workings of the Parys mine revealing further evidence for this ancient mining. Parys Mountain is thus one of the few sites in Britain where there is evidence for the prehistoric beginnings of the British metal mining industry. #parysmountain #anglesey #northwales #mining #amlwch #landscapephotography #amlwchcoppermine #coppermine #heritage #northwalestagram #northwales #angleseyisland #mininghistory #wales❤️ #heritagewalk #coppertrail #parysmountaincoppermine #outandaboutwithliz #historylovers #unusualplaces #obscuretourism (at Amlwch) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEle06OsU02/?igshid=e960pqjxtxfl
