Including many older workings.

An ancient tin mine once operated across a vast area between Lanyon farm and Mulfra hill, extending from west to north of Boskednan. Numerous shafts, derelict mine structures, and substantial dumps remain scattered on the south and southeast slopes of Nine Maidens Cairn. The focal point of the mine, Croft Reeve Shaft, positioned centrally within the mining area, housed crucial facilities such as stamps and two engine houses. Presently, this location is identifiable by a significant, vegetation-covered mound situated near the dirt track road connecting Boskednan to Bosiliack.
