Cornish Metals Careers Engagement Offer

Cornish Metals have a fantastic free offer for primary schools, read on to find out more...

School visits from the South Crofty Team - Typically, a member of the team will visit the school to engage children in the mining lifecycle; how we go from exploration, extraction, processing, smelting and through to the end product e.g. a smartphone. A variety of props are provided including mineral samples, core and items that highlight how mining provides the materials needed for modern life and the importance of critical metals such as tin. Cornish Metals can also sponsor an outreach session by King Edward Mine and/or Geevor outreach team – their school visits focus on the historical side of Cornish mining, and provide some context in advance of field trips.

Field Trips The team can also fully fund admission (limited places) for field trips to some great locations relating to Cornish mining history: Geevor Tin Mine Museum (https://geevor.com/) has proven to be really popular, providing an underground experience, tour of the processing facilities, winding gear, miners dry and museum. King Edward Mine Museum (https://www.kingedwardmine.co.uk/) is another great option for the field trip, focusing more on the mineral processing side of things with a good museum and hands-on experience with using items such as a vanning shovel/panning.
