Pant-y-Gaseg Mine
Amlwch, Isle of Anglesey, Wales, UK
An abandoned copper mine in the far north of the Isle of Anglesey, Wales.
Showing the single result
The mine is the type locality for Dickite, and several other minerals are found at the site – azurite, chalcopyrite, dolomite, malachite and quartz.
There is still an open shaft at the site and a possible sea level adit. Access is probably not safe, however.
I have not seen too many specimens from this site, and wasn’t able to find much information about the location online either.
The mine was likely operated between 1859 and 1879, and then again between 1906 and 1907.
