Weitere Informationen

Carn Galver Mine appears to have operated from 1851 to its closure in 1878. This mine was never really productive, producing only 150 tons of tin during that time. It was a very wet mine and suffered from drainage problems. The mine was pumped out by steam power, the pump drawing water from 780 feet down, with a second engine used to raise and crush the ore. During its short working life, it employed seventy miners, with an adit 70 fathoms below the surface and a shaft sunk to 130 fathoms. The ore was crushed by a compound steam engine, fitted with two pneumatic stamps.
