Tin mining poised to return to Cornwall after Reeves backing
The Guardian
|July 29, 2025
Tin mining is poised for a comeback in Cornwall after the UK government invested almost £29m to reopen the county's last tin mine and create more than 1,000 jobs in the region.
The South Crofty tin mine, near the town of Pool, closed in 1998, and in the years since, as tin prices have soared, attempts to reopen it have been unsuccessful.
Rachel Reeves, the chancellor, who is due to visit Cornwall this week, estimated that reopening South Crofty could create 1,300 jobs for the region. In January, the government approved a £28.6m investment to support the reopening of the mine, which is being led by the Redruth-based Cornish Metals.
