    Wheal Jane Minewater Project Pilot Passive Treatment Plant – Decommissioning Project Name: Kevin Barnes Job title: Project Manager Date: May 2010 Wheal Jane Minewater Project Pilot Passive Treatment Plant Background – Decommissioning Project Mining has taken place in the Carnon Valley area of Cornwall for thousands of years. The Wheal Jane Mine was opened in Oct 1971. In the 1980’s 900 tonnes of ore containing tin, zinc & copper was mined and processed at the Wheal Jane mine site on a daily basis. In 1985 tin prices fell from £10,500 to £3,300. In 1991 mining was officially terminated at the Wheal Jane site and a temporary water treatment system was installed. On 13th January 1992 50,000m3 of mine water left the Nangiles Adit…. Wheal Jane Minewater Project Pilot Passive Treatment Plant – Decommissioning Project Wheal Jane Mine water Treatment Project – The project was initiated following the abandonment of the Wheal Jane Mine and the subsequent 1992 pollution event, to treat the metalliferous acid mine water which was continuing to discharge from the mine workings. A long term treatment strategy with two main options was assessed; 1. An Active Treatment Plant based upon lime dosing and settlement/storage within the Clemow’s Valley Tailings Dam. 2. A Pilot Passive Treatment Plant located in the Carnon Valley. Wheal Jane Minewater Project Pilot Passive Treatment Plant – Decommissioning Project Carnon Valley - 1993 Wheal Jane Minewater Project Pilot Passive Treatment Plant – Decommissioning Project Land Ownership The National Rivers Authority acquired 44 hectares of land in the Carnon Valley between July 1993 & November 1994. The land was purchased for the construction of the Pilot Passive Treatment Plant.

  • Visit to Wheal Jane Tin Mine” British Mining No.3, Pp.8-10
    BRITISH MINING No.3 BRITISH MINING No.3 MEMOIRS 1976 Hunter, J. 1976 “Visit to Wheal Jane Tin Mine” British Mining No.3, pp.8-10 NB This publication was originally issued in the 10 by 8 inch format then used by the society. It has now been digitised and reformatted at A5. This has changed the original pagination of articles, which is given in square brackets. ISSN 0309-2199 VISIT TO WHEAL JANE TIN MINE J. Hunter B.Sc. During our Easter field excursion to Dartmoor the other year, we were privileged to be given permission to visit the newly opened Wheal Jane tin mine, near Redruth, Cornwall. We had to set off from our lodgings in Ashburton at 6.00am to be underground by 8.30am. Lamps, belts, helmets and safety boots were all provided, and at the shaft top our party was divided into two groups. One group was left at the 2nd level, and shown around the dry workings, while the rest of us, because we had gone in supposedly waterproof clothing, were taken down to the 7th level, known as the ‘wet level’. Three main lodes are mined at Wheal Jane, two of which are associated with a porphyritic ‘elvan’ dyke and dip at a shallow angle to the S.E. down to the 70 fm. level. The elvan dyke was previously thought to have controlled the deposition of the lodes, but careful study has revealed that the tin ore was deposited in several phases, some of which preceed the dyke, and the presence of the two features in such close proximity is probably due to an earlier shear zone being a favourable site for both.

  • Computer Simulation at Wheal Jane, Cornwall
    Computer Simulation at Wheal Jane, Cornwall K. A. Lewis,* A. Wells,t and P. Tucker* Abstract Mathematical modelling methods were used at Wheal Jane. to investigate the sensitivity of the Stokes hydrosizer to changes in the operating variables, with the view to improving the process efficiency. The major conclusion was that the hydrosizer was overloaded. The results indicated that throughput and spigot densities were the most sensitive variables. The model predictions demonstrated that a significant improvement in classification efficiency (both in sharpness of separation and in fines misplacement) could be achieved by (i) increasing hydrosizer capacity and (ii) increasing spigot 1 density to its practical limit. Based on these predictions, a decision was made to install a second hydrosizer in parallel with the first. Subsequent test work on the new circuit validated the predictions and confirmed that an improved efficiency had been achieved. From monitoring plant performance for 4 month periods before and after the change, it was established that a significant increase in overall tin concentrate grade had resulted. Further improvements are now expected from optimizing the hydrosizer/primary tabling circuit (as an integral unit), that is by tuning the table operations to more fully exploit the now better classified feeds. Recommendations, in this direction, will be provided by computer simulation methods. This paper reports on the computer simulation techniques used in this study: their basis and their application to optimizing both unit processes and larger blocks of the process flowsheet. The mathematical models of the Stokes hydrosizer and the shaking table are discussed briefly and their scope and limitations are ex~mined within the context of this investigation.

  • Georesources Cornwall Working Paper
    VERSION 15 August 2019 WORKING PAPER Version 10 October 2019 Georesources Cornwall Recommendations for development of the Georesources sector in Cornwall 1 VERSION 15 August 2019 REMIX project The aim of this Georesources Cornwall document is to advise Cornwall Council and Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Local Enterprise Partnership on the mining and related opportunities in Cornwall and how best they might be encouraged and facilitated. It is an output of the REMIX project. REMIX was funded by Interreg Europe to encourage resource efficient and environmentally and socially acceptable production of raw materials by working with regional policy instruments. It brought together partners and stakeholders across nine European regions, at different stages of the mining cycle, to share knowledge and develop best practice guidelines. Camborne School of Mines, University of Exeter was the partner for the region. In Cornwall we brought together stakeholders, especially Cornwall Council and the companies in the Cornwall Mining Alliance for workshops on specific topics and facilitated travel to European partners to a series of peer review meetings to learn from their activities and experience. A peer review visit of European partners to Cornwall was held in May 2018. Various interviews were also held with individual businesses. Expertise external to the university was used to help compile information, especially on mineral rights, mine water geothermal energy, the Cornwall Mining Alliance business cluster and potential economic development through growth of this sector. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Contents Summary recommendations 1.

  • Treatment of Acid Mine Drainage 21
    RESEARCH PAPER 99/10 Treatment of Acid Mine 2 FEBRUARY 1999 Drainage The problem of acid mine drainage (AMD) has been present since mining activity began thousands of years ago. Mining activity has disrupted the hydrology of mining areas so badly that it is extremely difficult to predict where water would eventually re-emerge. Individual mine closures have not resulted in massive AMD events as pumping continued so as to allow mining at nearby operational mines. It is now, when whole coalfields will finally close, that AMD will become the problem it has promised to be. AMD will be a chronic problem and one that will degrade local streams, rivers and other watercourses. Whilst, in some cases, drainage occurs that is not acidic, all mine drainage events pose the problem of introducing iron, and potentially other metals, to local watercourses. With the advent of major AMD events, as evidenced by Wheal Jane in Cornwall, it will become necessary to identify methods that will be used to treat AMD when coal fields close and the source of money to pay for them. The alternative is to prevent drainage occurring by continued pumping.
