This innovative project, brought to us by Coventry University will allow visitors to learn about minerals through hands-on experiences. Discover how we use them in everyday life, and focus on tin. Where does it come from? How do we use it? 


The workshop is aimed at children aged 6 to 14 years old, but all are welcome. 
The project and this specific workshop complement EU Raw Materials initiatives and EU funded projects such as Minerals4EU, Suscritmat, MIN-GUIDE and RMShools.
