catalaDocumentam l’existencia d’activitats mineres i metal·lurgiques prehistoriques a la zona central de la serra de Tramuntana. S’hi ha reduit mineral pobre en coure procedent d’afloraments de la mateixa zona. Hem localitzat camps d’escoria de reduccio de mineral de coure i estacions metal·lurgiques on es realitzava la reduccio. Hem trobat escoria de reduccio de mineral coure a 35 localitats. Documentam la relacio entre les activitats de reduccio metal·lurgica i diferents balmes situades a llocs remots i d’acces dificil de la Serra. Descrivim una fornal de reduccio i diferents jacos de morterets. Les activitats metal·lurgiques detectades daten, com a minim, des de c. 2000 cal BC fins a moments indeterminats del IIn mil·lenni cal BC. EnglishPrehistoric mining and metallurgical activities in the central part of Serra de Tramuntana are recorded. Copper ores with a poor quality were smelted. Copper slag concentrations and smelting sites have been recorded. Smelting slags here recorded have been found in 35 different sites. A relationship is established between smelting activities and rock shelters located in marginal places, with an abrupt relief, of the Serra. A smelting furnace and several mortars are here described. These recorded metallurgical activities are dated, at least, from c. 2000 cal BC to some undetermined moment of the II mil·lennium cal BC.
