I hope this hasn't already been done or I'll be in trouble again . 🙂 but I've uploaded Spargo's 1864 map of the mines in the Camborne-Illogan- Redruth area. It's not the highest quality but shows (a) the number of mines in a very small area and (b) the difficulty of itemizing each individual mine particularly as the boundaries kept changing. The black line through the middle is the Camorne-Redruth road. Have added map which is roughly the area covered.

The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there.
