Wheal Peevor Wheal Peevor was a metalliferous mine located on North Downs about 1.5 miles north-east of Redruth, Cornwall. The first mining sett was granted here in around 1701 on land owned by the St Aubyn family. The mine covered only 12 acres (4.8 ha) but had rich tin lodes.
Consolidated Mines Consolidated Mines, also known as Great Consolidated mine, was a metalliferous mine. Mainly active during the first half of the 19th century, its mining sett was about 600 yards north–south; and 2,700 yards east–west, to the east of Carharrack.

In 1852, the mine was almalgamated with Poldice Mine and Carharrack Mine and worked as St Day United.
