About the event

Lecture - "Ore!" by Mike Weber
How often has "Ore!" been shouted excitedly as prospectors and miners discovered the treasures of the earth? But what is "ore?" This presentation will answer that question and review the iron ores of Pennsylvania, with special emphasis on Cornwall ore and iron ores from nearby Berks County. The presentation is the third part of a four-part series on the materials consumed in cold-blast, charcoal iron furnaces, and the principal waste product - charcoal, iron ore, limestone, and slag. Please join us for this exciting and informative presentation.

This talk, "Ore!” is hosted by the Cornwall Iron Furnace Associates and will take place on Tuesday evening, November 11th, 2025, at 7 p.m. This event will take place in-person at Freeman Hall at Cornwall Manor and virtually on Zoom.


The presenter, Michael Weber, volunteers as a guide, researcher, and lecturer at Cornwall Iron Furnace. As a 1982 geosciences graduate from Penn State, Mike worked for 36 years as a geologist, health physicist, and manager for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the U.S. Geological Survey. After retiring from Federal service, he returned to Cornwall Furnace, where he serves as a guide and researches the history of mining and the geology at Cornwall and similar deposits in PA. He is the author of “Always More Production,” a history of the mining operations at Cornwall.

This is an in-person and an online lecture that will utilize the Zoom platform.

Registration is required for online attendance. To register for the virtual lecture please go to:
