Copper Botallack Mine, St Just, Cornwall,England, UK 3x2" Ex Col Williams - Burncoose Assay Office Collection. Williams collection number 112. Although attributed to "probably Wh Basset" by Williams, the specimen came from the Bolitho collection (the Bolithos were a well known Penzance mining family and operated the largest tin smelting house in Cornwall during the 19th century and until 1912), so the specimen is much more likely to be from one of the St. Just mines. Specifically, the specimen is like other wire coppers from Botallack Mine and thus possibly dates to c1804 when other specimens of this type were collected. (Author: ian jones)
