The project is to design and produce an interpretive experience to tell the story of Amlwch’s Copper Mining heritage and promote the internationally significant archaeology of Parys Mountain. This is to take the form of an exhibition covering the social history of Amlwch and working life in the mines, the prehistoric and industrial archaeology of the mountain and the unique geological and environmental nature of the mines. 2. Housing this exhibition is to be the main function of the Copper Bin, a historic building in Porth Amlwch being renovated for the purpose under the Anglesey Three Towns Physical Regeneration scheme and funding from Welsh Assembly Government. The interpretation to be housed inside is being commissioned by the Amlwch Industrial Heritage Trust. The Amlwch Industrial Heritage Trust (AIHT) is a registered charity formed in 1996. Its goals are the preservation of the area’s industrial heritage, the promotion of research into the area’s history and geology and the economic regeneration of the area through tourist development of these resources. 3. Once work is completed the Copper Bin will form a significant part of the Copper Kingdom tourist destination which also includes: • The Sail Loft: A cafe and visitor centre two minutes walk from the Copper Bin which will focus on the community’s maritime heritage. Currently the Sail Loft is the Copper Kingdom’s only visitor centre and houses exhibitions on both the maritime and the mining heritage. 2 • The Watch Tower: Also within easy walking distance of the Copper Bin, the Watch tower is being developed by GeoMon as a visitor centre to promote Anglesey’s status as a European Geopark. • Parys Mountain: The exotic landscape left behind by copper mining is presented to the public through a heritage trail and guided tours. The mountain currently attracts 21,000 visits per year. 4. The production of this exhibition forms part of an HLF project to conserve and present the important mining heritage of Amlwch for the benefit of the local community and visitors to Anglesey. In the next year works financed by the Heritage Lottery Fund will see restoration work to historic structures and access improvements on the mountain and the provision of interpretation. The HLF documentation also includes an Interpretation Plan which proposes a number of ICT components such as the creation of a detailed 3D Virtual model of Parys Mountain and underground mines, as conceived by the Trust and Technium CAST. This computer model currently forms a major component of our proposal for interpretation on the mountain as well as in the Copper Bin and the interpreters chosen will need to work with AIHT and partners in order to fully explore the viability of incorporating such a model into the exhibition. The HLF funded programme of activities also includes skills training for local people in a number of relevant areas and an oral history project. 5. The landscape of Amlwch and Parys Mountain is a designated Landscape of Outstanding Historic Interest and the Copper Kingdom visitor destination aims to encourage public understanding and appreciation of this landscape, so much of which stems from the copper ores of the mountain. The landscape area includes the mountain and its mines, Amlwch Port, the townscape of Amlwch and the rural area between Amlwch and the mountain. 3 B. Budget 6. The outline budget for design and production of the exhibits is in the range £200,000 to £250,000 excluding VAT. The exhibition space has been calculated as approximately 266 square meters. C. Objectives for the Interpretation 7. Learning objective 1: Visitors should be left understanding that the landscape of Parys Mountain is man-made and how this came about through the geology and mining. 8. Learning objective 2: Visitors should understand the links between copper mining and the maritime heritage of Amlwch and why they are both covered by the Copper Kingdom project. 9. Emotional Objective 1: Visitors should be able to empathise with mine workers and appreciate how hard their work was and how their personal fortunes depended on the unpredictable yield of the mountain rock. 10. Emotional Objective 2: Visitors should feel impressed by the achievements of Amlwch workers in reshaping the landscape through their industrial activity on and within the mountain. 11. Behavioural Objective 1: Visitors should be motivated to visit (or revisit) Parys Mountain and to explore other sites in the designated Landscape of Outstanding Historic Interest. 12. Target Visitor Numbers: In order for the Copper Kingdom project to be financially viable visitor numbers to the Copper Bin must exceed 30,000 per year. Admission to the Copper Bin displays will be charged at £2.95 per adult with concessions available. 4 Overall Theme 13. The interpretive theme for the exhibition is that ‘The lunar landscape of Parys Mountain is a monument to the thousands of people whose lives and fortunes were shaped by the search for copper ore’. All exhibits should in some way contribute to developing this theme in visitor’s minds Historic background 14. Mynydd Parys was first mined for copper ore during the Bronze Age and there is indirect evidence of copper mining there during the Roman occupation of Britain. The main period of mining occurred though after the discovery of a large deposit of easily accessible ore in 1768. Parys Mountain became the world’s leading copper mine in the 1780s and was the foundation of Thomas Williams’ copper monopoly which controlled world prices of the metal at a time when it was crucial to Britain’s naval power and the slave trade. As a result of the large workforce required at the mines the small fishing village of Amlwch became the largest town in North Wales and second only to Merthyr Tydfil nationally. 15. Mine workers pay was dependent on the amount of ore they found and they had to pay for their own equipment and explosives, which meant that an unlucky miner could work all day and only end up in debt to unscrupulous mine agents. Mining was carried out initially by numerous shallow shafts and then by opencast methods creating the Great Opencast and Hillside Opencast that dominate the mountain today, then in later years by deep underground mining. Copper was also extracted from the mountain by precipitation and the precipitation ponds are a major feature of the relict landscape on the mountain. 16. Amlwch Port developed in response to the mine’s output and the demand for Copper and this is the crucial link between the area’s industrial and maritime heritages. The decline of the mines prompted a decline in the fortunes of the town. Riots occurred in the town in 1816 5 over the price of food at a time of low employment in the mines and on the mountain in 1863 over the use of Cornish workers in the mine. The Building The Copper Bin was once one of a row of structures used to store ore from the mines before being shipped out to be sold on or smelted. The row of Copper bins on the east harbour side were each filled from the street above through a chute in the roof. The proposals for Amlwch Copper Bins have been carefully developed to create an optimum balance between conservation and modern improvements to the Port. Past damage will be undone through conservative repair and creative reuse of the existing Copper Bins as a new Visitor Centre. As part of the design, an authentic interpretation of the important history at Amlwch will be portrayed through integrating key historic features. The complex seeks to enliven the quayside and provides an improved tourist offer with retail space, exhibition space and artefact display, and multi functional space with the capacity for a 3D cinema screen. Circulation spaces are generous to ensure movement through the building is easy for all. Café and support facilities will be provided by The Sail Loft and The Watchtower nearby, enhancing the Port site as a whole and safeguarding the quayside building fabric for future generations. Historically, the Copper bins were built on an excavated rock surface at quay level, and the copper ore delivered from Parys Mountain to Pen Cei above the bins by cart. From Pen Cei, the ore was poured down to the bins below through large timber chutes. The ore would then be collected be taken across the world by ship. There is only one roofed Copper Bin still intact, and one timber chute. The Visitor Centre’s circulation respects and exposes the rock face to the back of the bins as a main feature. The evoked feeling inside next to the rock face is intended to give the visitor an experience of going down the mine workings at Parys Mountain. The two new modern timber ‘pods’ will break the mass of the bins and penetrate through the roof to provide essential circulatory shafts which mimic the timber chutes as historically utilised for distributing the ore. The extension within the adjoining copper bin will respect the mass and form of its neighbour; the main copper bin.

  • The Smelting of Copper
    Chapter 4 The Smelting of Copper The first written account of the processes of smelting and refining of copper is to be found in the 12th century.1 On smelting: Copper is engendered in the earth. When a vein of which is found, it is acquired with the greatest labour by digging and breaking. It is a stone of a green colour and most hard, and naturally mixed with lead. This stone, dug up in abundance, is placed upon a pile, and burned after the manner of chalk, nor does it change colour, but yet looses its hardness, so that it can be broken up. Then, being bruised small, it is placed in the furnace; coals and the bellows being applied, it is incessantly forged by day and night. On refining: Of the purification of copper. Take an iron dish of the size you wish, and line it inside and and out with clay strongly beaten and mixed, and it is carefully dried. Then place it before a forge upon the coals, so that when the bellows acts upon it the wind may issue partly within and partly above it, and not below it. And very small coals being placed around it equally, and add over it a heap of coals. When, by blowing a long time, this has become melted, uncover it and cast immediately fine ashes over it, and stir it with a thin and dry piece of wood as if mixing it, and you will directly see the burnt lead adhere to these ashes like a glue.

    A report on Ysgol Gynradd Penysarn Penysarn Anglesey LL69 9AZ Date of inspection: October 2017 by Estyn, Her Majesty’s Inspectorate for Education and Training in Wales A report on Ysgol Gynradd Penysarn October 2017 About Ysgol Gynradd Penysarn Ysgol Gynradd Penysarn is situated approximately two miles from Amlwch on the Isle of Anglesey. Welsh is the main medium of the school’s life and work. There are 98 pupils between three and eleven years old on roll, including eight part-time nursery age children. They are divided into four mixed-age classes. Approximately 13% of pupils are eligible for free school meals. This is lower than the national percentage (19%). Approximately half the pupils come from Welsh-speaking homes, and very few are from ethnic minority backgrounds. The school has identified 22% of its pupils as having additional learning needs, but very few have a statement of special educational needs. The headteacher was appointed to the post in January 2017. He was not at the school during the inspection. The school was last inspected in January 2012. Further information is available from the Welsh Government My Local School website at the link below. http://mylocalschool.wales.gov.uk/Schools/SchoolSearch?lang=en 1 A report on Ysgol Gynradd Penysarn October 2017 Summary During their time at the school, most pupils make sound progress and achieve well. Most pupils show positive attitudes towards their work and concentrate well in lessons. On the whole, teachers provide interesting learning activities, which motivate pupils to enjoy learning. The Welsh language is at the heart of the school’s life and work, and there is a clear emphasis on ensuring that pupils have a good awareness of the local area’s history and culture.

  • Michael Hughes of Sutton: the Influence of Welsh Copper On
    MICHAEL HUGHES OF SUTTON THE INFLUENCE OF WELSH COPPER ON LANCASHIRE BUSINESS, 1780-1815'1 ' BY J. R. HARRIS, B.A. Read 31 March 1949 ICHAEL HUGHES of Sherdley House in the township of M Sutton was very much the sort of man who made the Indus­ trial Revolution. From his ledgers one can see the economic vitality of the period displayed in the varied business activities of a single influential man. His actions determined the course of local industrial and financial advance: in turn the trends of the time moulded his own economic and business life. In this paper it is intended to speak first of the connection between Welsh copper mining and the Lancashire smelting industry, and then of the investments and financial activities of Hughes. Michael Hughes (1752-1825) was the youngest child of Hugh Hughes of Lleinog in Anglesey, (2) whose family remained obscure until his eldest son, the Rev. Edward Hughes, M.A., married a lady, Mary Lewis, who inherited some land in Anglesey, (3) particularly half a barren hill just outside Amlwch called the Parys Mountain. It was the discovery in 1768 that this mountain was virtually composed of copper which initiated not merely the rise to power and wealth of Hughes and his business associates, but also a brief revolution in the industry itself. During the first half of the eighteenth century the trades of mining, smelting and manufacturing copper (and also brass, of which copper is a main component) had undergone a steady expansion. In the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries copper mining and manu­ facturing had been monopoly industries carried on by the Mines Royal and the Mineral and Battery Companies, but towards the end revealed two brown paper parcels which contain correspondence of Michael Hughes between 1800 and 1825, with a few earlier documents.

  • Removal of Iron from Dyffryn Adda, Parys Mountain, N. Wales, UK Using Sono-Electrochemistry (Electrolysis with Assisted Power Ultrasound)
    Lappeenranta, Finland Mine Water and Circular Economy IMWA 2017 Removal of Iron from Dyffryn Adda, Parys Mountain, N. Wales, UK using Sono-electrochemistry (Electrolysis with assisted Power Ultrasound) Sarah A Morgan1, Zoe N Matthews1, Philip G Morgan1 and Peter Stanley2 1KP2M Ltd., C10 Ashmount Business Park, Swansea, SA6 8QR, UK [email protected] 2Natural Resources Wales, TŶ Cambria, Newport Rd., Cardiff, CF24 0TP, UK [email protected] Abstract The Dyffryn Adda from Parys Mountain, N. Wales is one of the most polluting mine waters in the UK releasing c. 10 tonnes of copper per annum and 24 tonnes of zinc per annum into the Irish Sea. The Metal Mines Strategy for Wales has ranked it first. An acid, iron rich mine water visible by its ochreous staining along 3 km of the Afon Goch Amlwch to its coastal discharge at Porth Offeiriad (Priest Port) has a negative impact on both river and coastal water quality and local businesses and communities. Several investigations using Active, Passive and Hybrid treatment processes employing conventional treatment technologies as well as Pump to sea have been considered, however successful treatment has not proven to be cost beneficial to date. This study shows that sono-electrochemical treatment (combined electrolysis and power ultrasound) to produce magnesium hydroxide can raise the pH of the water, precipitate iron as insoluble iron hydroxide [Fe(OH)2] and has the potential to preferentially precipitate other metals in their stable hydroxide forms. Extrapolating the laboratory results and methods to full scale treatment (12 l sec-1 flow rate) indicates that it is a viable Active treatment process compared to other treatment options being considered and can aid failing water bodies achieve compliance with the EU Water Framework Directive.

  • Prehistoric Mining at the Great Orme
    PREHISTORIC MINING AT THE GREAT ORME Criteria for the identification of early mining C. Andrew Lewis M.Phil University of Wales – Bangor Agricultural and Forest Sciences September 1996 What then? Shall we sit idly down and say "The night hath come; it is no longer day"? The night hath not yet come; we are not quite Cut off from labour by the failing light; Something remains for us to do or dare . And as the evening twilight fades away, The sky is filled with stars, invisible by day. H.W.Longfellow SUMMARY This study describes and discusses the criteria for the identification of prehistoric or early mining on the Great Orme. Particular emphasis is placed on the geological conditions of the ore deposit and how this has governed the scale and morphology of the extensive workings now recognised at the site. This was achieved by underground and surface surveys of the workings together with precise recording of geological formations through the same areas. The principal routes through the 18-19th century workings were surveyed, concentrating on localities where evidence for early phases of mining existed. Geological recording took the form of logging individual rock strata and associated mineralisation from surface exposures to the deepest sections of the mine where early mining could be identified. The artefacts and features of the prehistoric workings were also investigated, by a review of all existing historical and archaeological documentation relating to the site supplemented by evidence obtained directly through this study. From this it was possible to distinguish differences in mining artefacts and features between the prehistoric period and the 18-19th centuries.

  • Mineralogy, Petrography, and Microstructural Evolution of The
    Primary and secondary pyrite textures from the Parys Mountain Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide Deposit, Wales: an electron backscatter diffraction investigation Michael A. Salter Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, L69 3GP, UK. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Colloform textures develop in a sequential manner and have the potential to record changing ore-forming conditions. Current understanding of colloform growth controls is limited. Recent studies invoke possible links between crystal morphology, degree of supersaturation, and development of crystallographic preferred orientations (CPOs) with common axes that switch across layer interfaces. Another possible factor is trace element sequestration. Further development of these ideas here utilises forescatter orientation contrast (OC) imaging and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) to investigate crystal morphology and CPOs in colloforms from the Parys Mountain polymetallic sulphide deposit. Results from two colloforms indicate development of CPO is commonly about <100> and only rarely about <110> and <111>. Both colloforms show weak CPOs consistent with coarse grain size and stronger CPOs consistent with small grain size, thereby demonstrating a possible link between crystal nucleation rate, degree of supersaturation, and strength of CPO development. In contrast to results of previous studies, common axes frequently lie parallel to nucleation surface and normal to growth direction. This is difficult to reconcile with ore-forming fluid and trace element growth controls and is most easily explained by syntaxial relationship with nucleation surfaces. Abrupt switching of common axis orientation across layer interfaces appears to eliminate this as a possible growth control, but a syntaxial relationship is demonstrated across at least one layer interface.

Both natural and waste deposits show elevated trace element concentrations, including selenium (Se), at abundances of both economic and environmental consideration. Elevated concentrations of semi- metals such as Se in waste smelts highlight the potential for economic reserves in this and similar base metal mining sites. Selenium is sourced from the pyritic bedrock and concentrations are retained in red weathering smelt soils, but lost in bedrock-weathered soils and clays. Selenium correlates with Te, Au, Bi, Cd, Hg, Pb, S, and Sb across bedrock and weathered deposits. Man-made mine waste deposits show enrichment of As, Bi, Cu, Sb, and Te, with Fe oxide-rich smelt materials containing high Pb, up to 1.5 wt %, and Au contents, up to 1.2 ppm.
