Mining company Cornish Metals has found new high-grade tin while drilling at its mine in Cornwall. The AIM-listed firm said it made the discovery while carrying out work at the southern boundary of the South Crofty mine in the Duchy.
The spot, called the ‘Wide Formation’, is an extension of the Great Flat Lode - a mineral-bearing body of rock under the southern slopes of Carn Brea south of Camborne in west Cornwall.
The area the discovery was made lies parallel to, north of, and beneath the Great Flat Lode.
