Tin mining began early in the Bronze Age, as bronze is a copper tin alloy. Tin is a relatively rare element in the Earths crust, with approximately 2 ppm parts per million, compared to iron with 50,000 ppm. History. Tin extraction and use can be dated to the beginnings of the Bronze Age around 3000 BCE, when it was observed that copper objects formed of polymetallic ores with different
Ores that contain copper in the U.S. are typically mined in large, open pits. Copper processing facilities are usually located near mining or extraction sites. Significant waste volumes are associated with copper production. Mine wastes may contain radionuclides due to their natural presence in ores and can be a source of TENORM. Uranium, which may be co located with copper ore, may also be
