Carn Marth Carn Marth (Cornish: Karn Margh) is the name of a hill in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom, near Redruth. It is 235 m (771 ft) high and is well known for the granite quarried from it in the past.

Poldice mine Poldice mine is a former metalliferous mine located in southwest Cornwall. It is situated near the hamlet of Todpool, between the villages of Twelveheads and St Day, three miles east of Redruth.

Wheal Gorland Wheal Gorland was one of the most important Cornish mines of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It is the type locality for the minerals chenevixite, clinoclase, cornwallite, kernowite and liroconite.

Stithians Stithians (Cornish: Stedhyans), also known as St Stythians, is a village and civil parish in Cornwall. It lies in the middle of the triangle bounded by Redruth, Helston and Falmouth. Its population (2001) is 2,004, increasing to 2,101 at the 2011 census. An electoral ward in the same name also exists but stretches north to St Day.

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.

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.

Killifreth Mine Killifreth Mine was a mine near Chacewater in Cornwall, producing copper, tin and arsenic. The engine house over Hawke’s Shaft is a Grade II listed building; it has the tallest surviving chimney in Cornwall.
