Amiens Tin Experience a success

Never too young to make your riches panning for tin on the Granite Belt.

Locals and visitors alike enjoyed a day learning about the Granite Belt’s tin mining history on 4 September at Amiens Legacy Centre.

Attendees enjoyed tin panning, an explanation of the smelting process, making jewellery and trinkets from tin, billy tea and damper.

This was the second event at Amiens this year after their event on 21 May was a huge success.
