Below are a series of links to sites directly related to mining activity in Cornwall, together with sites for academic institutions, societies and mining employment. The new CSM Virtual Museum, developed by Simon Camm, Professor Peter Scott and Paul Hedley, is now on-line and gives a comprehensive overview of the geology, mineralogy, mining history and social history of the Cornubian Orefield - it is an essential resource for anyone studying this area and is well worth visiting whether you're a novice or professional !
