mines of Kansanshi
editThe article claims that "Copper extraction and casting begins in the mines of Kansanshi in southernmost Africa", a claim that I was unable to verify. In fact, no history of mining in the Kansanshi region mentions any date prior to later 19th century.
Such an exact date for the beginning of mining in that part of the world in that particular period seems very dubious and unless anybody has a reference for this (or at least an idea on where to start searching for one), I propose removing it from the article.
