Tin processing
Images taken on the tour through the tin processing works at the former Geevor mine. It's easy to imagine what a noisy and dusty environment this must have been when it was working. The ore containing the tin had to be ground down (this image) to a powder for the tin to be separated out. Of course, the luxurious lunch room facility provided a retreat for the workers (second PiP).
Explored.

Thanks for the note.
P.S. Glad you enjoyed the kalimba presentation and music link!
Have a great new week...
Lots of Cornish miners emigrated to the Mother Lode in California (and other places too, I'm sure) in the 19th century. Things must've been pretty grim for that to seem an attractive option!
