King Edward Mine
About King Edward Mine
The King Edward Mine at Camborne, Cornwall, within the United Kingdom is a mine utterly owned via the Camborne School of Mines of the University of Exeter. At the stop of the nineteenth century students on the Camborne School of Mines spent a good deal of their time doing practical mining and tin dressing paintings inside the neighborhood tin mines. The industry was almost in terminal decline and the surviving mines were falling behind technically. This became rarely ideal from the coaching point of view. The only actual solution became for Camborne School of Mines to have its own underground mine. In 1897, Camborne School of Mines took over the deserted japanese a part of the South Condurrow Mine around the engine shaft of the same call.
This offered the possibility to work each William's Lode and the Great Flat Lode right down to 400 ft from floor. No pumping turned into important as all water inside the mine drained into the then running Grenville mine to the south. Between 1897 and 1906 the mine become almost completely re-ready based totally on what turned into then the first-rate of Cornish mining and milling practice. Engine Shaft and William's Shafts had been re-geared up, the underground workings cleared and a number of surface building erected inclusive of a complete modern-day complete-scale tin dressing plant, survey workplace, workshops, and lecture rooms.
