Wheal Maid Wheal Maid (also Wheal Maiden) is a former mine in the Camborne-Redruth-St Day Mining District, 1.5km east of St Day. Between 1800 and 1840, profits are said to have been up to £200,000. In 1852, the mine was almalgamated with Poldice Mine and Carharrack Mine and worked as St Day United. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s the mine site was turned into large lagoons and used as a tip for two other nearby mines: Mount Wellington and Wheal Jane.

Mount Wellington Tin Mine Mount Wellington Tin mine opened in 1976 and was the first new mine in the region in many years. With the fall of tin prices and the withdrawal of pumping subsidies, the mine finally closed in 1991. An attempt to revive the mine occurred when an individual tried to transform it into a visitor attraction, but his endeavour failed.
