It is Hendre Spar Mine - I didn't think that was going to be identified at all (little visited part)

It was 2006

Stones is running away with the points ...

Braichgoch slate mine is the real name of King Arthur Labyrinth and you asked for the name of the mine not the name of the attraction...

Just sayin'

I've got a feeling this isn't a copper mine and it's a gold mine in the Dolgellau gold belt

So,

I could get myself into some trouble here but ... I thought Braichgoch was the slate mine with all the cars dumped in it and not the same mine as the "Corris" King Arthur thingy.

If I am wrong about that, I will (of course) give you the points although I won't take them from Stones since he got it right in the face of uncertainty.

Is it the same mine?

Figra gold mine

You could read the Wikipedia article I linked to. Or look on Aditnow...

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braichgoch_slate_mine

edit: Actually you can't look on Aditnow for much more than the location as it doesn't give any more info although a trip report on there gives the following:
www.aditnow.co.uk/documents/Braich-goch-...Braich-Goch-Trip.pdf

"Braich Goch Slate Mine
Location: Corris, Powys, SY20 9RF
National Grid Reference: SH748078
Transport: Braich Goch is adjacent to the Corris Craft Centre, immediately off the A487
Access: Unauthorised access is not permitted to Braich Goch. A lower floor is used for the
King Arthur’s Labyrinth tourist attraction and upper adits were securely gated in 2008."

Stones has got Figra Gold Mine - didn't think was going to be identified ....

Les, the quote you have provided is a bit subjective but, in the interests of fairness, I am giving you the points.

Subjective?
Did you read the Wikipedia article where it pretty much says the same thing? I don't know how it can be subjective. There can't be two mines in the same place without some sort of multidimensional worm hole...
I knew it was King Arthurs Labyrinth, but you asked for the mine name. Strangely I assumed that was what you wanted...

Thank you for the points.

By the way, the cars are in Gaewern Slate Mine up the road from King Arthurs...
