Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on February 9, 1991.
The shield suggests a mine shaft and the contrast between darkness and light, also symbolising the extraction of precious metals from the dark earth. The droplets are also suggestive of molten metal.
The motto can be translated as "Believe one who has had experience in the matter".
