A well informed piece given by an impassioned Ben Sumpter.  http://cornwallunderground.co.uk/

The underground clip is said to be from another mine, I wondered which one ?  The blue minerals trickling down the side of the walls is amazing.

Its several mines stitched together, I se Wheal Hermon, Priests Cove (St Just United), and someone with one of my lamps!
Good luck to them.

Loved the views of the many engine houses.
Carn Galver especially

Access to Botallack was gained via digging the Wheal Hazard Adit.
