Researchers found evidence that southern Iberia was an important copper source in Late Bronze Age Europe. Excavations at Las Minillas dated large-scale mining to roughly 1300–800/700 B.C., while isotope analysis linked some Scandinavian bronzes to Iberian copper, suggesting long-distance trade networks across western and northern Europe. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/antiquity/article/iberian-copper-and-bronze-age-europe-late-bronze-age-mining-and-supply-at-las-minillas-badajoz-spain/BF90FE97FD2986A71F1B7040BF76CAFA
