Cornish Metals Updates on Good Progress of Dewatering South Crofty Mine
Cornish Metals Inc.(AIM / TSX.V: CUSN) (“Cornish Metals” or the “Company”), a mineral exploration and development company focused on its South Crofty Tin Project (“South Crofty” or the “Project”) in Cornwall, United Kingdom, is pleased to provide an update on the progress of dewatering of South Crofty Mine.

Mine Dewatering Tracking Ahead of Expectations
- Dewatering has been underway since early November with up to 25,000m3 per day of water pumped directly from South Crofty Mine and treated at the Water Treatment Plant (“WTP”);
- Treated water is being discharged into the Red River which is having a positive effect on the water quality of the river downstream of the discharge point;
- The water discharged from South Crofty Mine powers a 75 kW hydro-turbine located ahead of the discharge point that generates up to 20% of the power consumed by the WTP;
- The water level within the New Cook’s Kitchen (“NCK”) shaft and underground workings is falling at a faster than expected rate;
- On December 5th the water level stood at approximately 155 metres below the surface;
- As the water level falls the rate of drop is expected to decline reflecting more underground workings at the deeper levels of the mine;
- The Company maintains guidance of 18-months (from start of dewatering) to complete dewatering of South Crofty Mine.
