Description
The Clearwell Caves have been mined since the Iron Age, 2,500 years ago. Displays throughout the mine tell the story of iron and its formation millions of years ago, as well as Freemining (a practice that entitles men with the ancient birthright to dig for minerals here).

The caves cover 600 acres and have miles of passageways to explore.
