Maps of the drilling locations to be explored in Kelly Bray will be on display at a public meeting this week.

Cornwall Resources Ltd is set to begin exploratory drilling soon with a view to reopening the Redmoor Mines for tin and tungsten production.

The initial drilling programme is expected to take around six months.

A series of information meetings for residents has already been held in Kelly Bray village.

The additional meeting has been requested by Callington’s portreeve and Town Council in order for local people to ask questions and make their views known.

Locally based Cornwall Resources consultant Jeff Harrison will be attending the meeting, which is to take place on Thursday, February 16, from 7pm at Callington Town Hall.
