See also: Okel Tor & Cothele Consols. Located on the north bank of the River Tamar, this mine commenced operations around 1848. It merged with Cotehele Consols, situated approximately 1.5 miles to the west, in 1882. However, this amalgamation was short-lived, leading to the winding up of the company. Despite this, operations on a smaller scale persisted at Okel Tor until 1887. (Reference: Mines and Miners of Cornwall XV - A K Hamilton Jenkin, 1969)
