I am researching a project 'The Mozeley Tables', that my now deceased father Clifford Trezise worked on at Geevor Tin Mine.
I have very little info. on the subject, but understand that my father built for Mr. Mozeley, at Geevor in the 1970's, the prototype for a 'Shaking Table', which appeared in the National Geographic Magazine.
On a recent visit to Geevor, the guide informed me that the tables in question were something to do with the 'Slimes'(?), a place not yet open to the public.
My father worked in the 'Fitting Shop' of Geevor for 27 years until his death in 1982.
I would be really grateful for any information on this project.
Sorry for the sketchy info.!!

Hello, I remember your dad, you need to speak to David Wright at Geevor, unfortunately he's not online. The slimes plant has been refurbished recently and although it's not on the normal tour it should be possible to arrange a visit. I can try and get a message to David if you'd like.

The guys at King Edward Mine near Camborne are a wealth of information. Franklyn Trevarthen. "exHayle"

I guess 'ex-Hayle, is the opposite to 'in-Hayle' - although Bill Clinton didn't. ::) :angel:

I am tempted to reply but such is not fair use of this website. Even so, now that i am awake again, I did mean to say that memory tells me that the leader of the King Edward Mine had had some involvement with Geevor.
