Cornwall Mining Alliance Description
Cornwall has a long and successful history of mining, quarrying and mineral processing. Since the 1700s this part of the UK has been the focus of geological studies and engineering advancements in metalliferous mining.
Cornwall has also produced China Clay, for worldwide export, for over 200 years. In 1888 the world-renowned Camborne School of Mines (now part of the University of Exeter) was established, followed by the Cornish Chamber of Mines & Minerals in 1917, with both organisations enhancing and supporting the development of Cornish mining expertise.
Today the region is home to a unique concentration of innovative businesses, organisations and experienced professionals providing services to all aspects of mining and related industries in the UK and around the world.
