No, not every mine had a shaft. Some mines used adits, which are horizontal tunnels dug into the side of a hill or mountain to access the mineral deposits underground. Adits were particularly common in hilly or mountainous regions where it was easier to dig horizontally than vertically.
Spears in the Stone Age were typically made by shaping a wooden shaft into a point at one end. The tip would either be sharpened or attached with a sharp stone or bone. Sometimes, the shaft would also be hardened with fire to increase its durability.
Those structures are commonly known as headframes. They are used to support the hoist machinery that is responsible for lifting and lowering skips (containers) in and out of the mine shaft during operations.
A Stone Age arrow was typically made using flint or obsidian for the arrowhead, wood for the shaft, and sinew or other materials for binding the two together. These arrows were crafted by skilled individuals within the community using basic tools and techniques.
