Dr. Sam Osmanagich, Ph.D. visited the oldest Iron Ore Mine in the World more than 43.000 years old. Officially, the Iron Age began in Europe 3,300 years ago. In Egypt, meteorite iron was used 6,000 years ago. Vinca in Serbia knew about secrets of melting at least 8,500 years ago.
But in the south of African continent, we are going backwards for several tens of thousands of years. According to the archaeologist who discovered this location, the iron ore mine is at least 100,000 years old.
And now, what is the true story: whether the primitive Paleolithic cave people in Swaziland have melted hematite at 1,500 degrees tens of thousands of years, or (the advanced) users of gold mines in this area of the world have used iron 100,000 years ago, using 3 million tons ore?
