Demolition of the old north winder house and dismantling of the old north winder have commenced, making way for construction of the new building in the coming months that will house the new production winder that has been ordered from Qualter Hall.
Following on from the news release dated 12 August 2025, work on the mid-shaft pump station is progressing to plan with the work area secured and stabilisation of the underground chamber of the pump station complete.

ABOUT CORNISH METALS
Cornish Metals is a dual-listed mineral exploration and development company (AIM and TSX-V: CUSN) that is advancing the South Crofty tin project towards production. South Crofty:
· is a historical, high-grade, underground tin mine located in Cornwall, United Kingdom and benefits from existing mine infrastructure including multiple shafts that can be used for future operations;
· is permitted to commence underground mining (valid to 2071), construct a new processing facility and for all necessary site infrastructure;
