Offers of photographs and/or page writing are welcomed from all interested parties. Please contact us before going ahead to ensure we are not duplicating our efforts. We are looking at all types of mining and quarrying and other extractive industries of natural resources in the British Isles. It does not matter whether is is a long disused lead mine, or a currently working slate quarry.


Notes for potential contributers
  • The site is aimed at the general public who may have no knowledge of the subject
  • The pages should be simple and with a brief history
  • Ideally a photograph should be used
  • Pages related to mining & quarrying are also welcomed, eg. geology, minerals, smelting etc.
  • Links and/or bibliographies should be provided to enable the visitor to go further
