king_pellinorApparently the South Croft tin mine in Cornwall is going into administration. From the article I read which announced this:
"There have been several challenges to operations at South Crofty which have made it difficult to attract investment. These include UNESCO’s objections to mining operations taking place in the area designated as the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape, which is protected as a World Heritage Site."
Well done UNESCO, I quite agree. Mining is entirely out of place in a mining area. It would be like taking a school, a place of quiet learning and development for young people, and filling it with children and all their noise and disruption.
