Cornwall’s mining history dates back to the Bronze Age, with Redruth once known as the wealthiest square mile in the country.
Geothermal energy is a source of renewable energy that capitalises on the earth’s natural heat. Widely used around the world, geothermal energy provides 24/7 power, unlike most other renewable sources, because it does not depend on specific weather conditions.
Cornwall’s geothermal resource can be utilised to produce 24/7 renewable electricity and heat, as well as offer the potential for lithium extraction.
Historically there has always been a need for hard drill bits to drill hard rock.
