Hi everyone. I,ve been interested in mining and the history of it for some years now. I am from a small vilage ( Ffrith ) Wrexham. There are a few mines close by which i would like to explore but I dont have the knowledge or experience.

Hi Nikolic,

 I'm not far from you, I'm based in Llay and try to get out midweek at the moment. Give me a shout if yu fancy playing out or find you struggle to meet on a Thursday. I'm flexible for weeknights. Happy to take you underground near Minera sometime, a lot of them are novice friendly and I have spare kit if needed.

Tom.

Yeah sounds good that Tom. Just come back from Minera. Walked from the kilns across to Boundry shaft then over to Cabin shaft. The missus's Dad mapped Cabin a good few years ago. He is going to dig it out for me to see.
