  Here’s hoping to see the return of Cornish mining with south Crofty hopefully opening again in the next couple years.

  A really interesting and poignant video of a past that has long vanished - yet the legacy of histories and buildings remain.  Fascinating - thank you, Paul.

  I was fortunate enough to go down Geevor mine I was about 14 years old and then down the King Edward Training Mine when I was 19/20 - both were fascinating.  It's great that such an important piece of local history lives on !

  The Mexican Flag waving at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JSccAg5bwk&amp;t=2310">38:30</a>. Real del Monte, Mineral del Chico and El Oro were mining towns with English Capital and workers in the XIX Century in Mexico. <br>Great documentary!

  Looking at those chimneys, Fred Dibnah would say &apos;&apos;i&apos;ll take the biggun&apos; down for 1200 quid and the littl&apos;n down for 800 ana pint&apos;&apos;

  Superb production. Very professional and informative. Your attention to detail by deliberately including Ding Dong engine house in the frame whilst describing the adjacent antiquities was appreciated.

  What an absolutely brilliant documentary, really well researched and edited. One small bit of trivia regarding Cornish dialect is the word &quot;wheal&quot; as in the names of some Cornish mines I believe is actually pronounced &quot;hule&quot;

  Great to see a &apos;traditionally shot&apos; doco on Youtube with the sort of edit pacing unknown to most American filmmakers. Beautiful pictures too. Sony FS7?
