Here it is archaeologically proven that there was once a real gold mine: the so-called Trou des Massotais. This former gold mine is located a few hundred meters from the Baraque Fraiture intersection on the E25. In the late 1990s, the small pond was drained, and researchers, in collaboration with the Université de Liège, were able to uncover an old mine entrance. The wooden support structure was examined, and carbon-14 analysis provided a dating that indicates extraction from the Celtic period (around 360 BC) to the late Gallo-Roman period (around 400 AD).
