Cornish Metals has said it is “on track” to deliver a key stage of its plans to restart tin mining at Cornwall's South Crofty mine.
The Canadian-headquartered mining company has updated inventors to say it has made “very good progress”, as it targets production in 2026 at the historic mine, which closed in 1998.
The AIM-listed firm has said the scheme could create 250 to 200 direct jobs in Cornwall, formerly one of the world’s major tin-producing areas, and help address deficits in global tin supply.
