Lion Cave In Swaziland: Article Analysis
Introduction
The earliest traces of mining can be traced back to our prehistoric ancestors with the oldest mine on record being the Lion Cave mine in Swaziland, with radiocarbon dating it to be 43,000 years old (Weisgerber, G., & Pernicka, E. 1995). There is even speculation among scientist that the mining of Lion Cave could probably date back even further to 70-110,000 years (Weisgerber, G., & Pernicka, E. 1995). Mining is still one of the most prevalent industries throughout the world with there being over 14,000 mines in the United States alone (Mining 2014). Although mining has been around since prehistoric man, business continuity, and the regulatory bodies that govern mining have only become prevalent in the last century. This paper …show more content…
