  • The Wheal Jane team had the pleasure of hosting some distinguished visitors yesterday. Lisa Pinney MBE, Chief Executive of The Coal Authority, visited with colleagues from The Environment Agency and The Office for Environmental Protection to look at two environmental protection schemes at either end of the spectrum with regards complexity and scale. Wheal Jane is a large active pumping process that treats mine water at scale; 10 miles away is Gwindra that passively treats a much smaller volume of water - but is equally important in terms of it being an example of how small footprint, passive schemes can be built to treat metal mine water in remote and sensitive locations. It’s always a pleasure to meet with Lisa and Nick and showcase the important work we are doing to protect the environment, made possible through the invaluable collaborative support of The Coal Authority. And…the sun shone for once!!

    Brilliant to be out on site today with The Coal Authority colleagues and partners from The Office for Environmental Protection, Environment Agency and John F Hunt Water Technology visiting our Wheal Jane and Gwindra metal mine water treatment schemes in Cornwall. These schemes are very different ends of the spectrum - from an intensive, industrial process to a gravity fed passive scheme but both meet the challenges they face, suit their location and deliver tangible improvements to water quality in their catchments. It’s great to work with our partners and suppliers on this Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs funded programme to reduce metal mine water pollution across England

  • Our House Martins make their annual return Wheal Jane 😃 We're delighted to welcome back some seasonal visitors to our Wheal Jane site this year, with around a dozen House Martins establishing a colony in the sheltered eaves of our concrete structures. These fascinating birds migrate to the UK & Ireland in early spring after spending the winter in warmer African climates. They build their characteristic mud nests under ledges or eaves, with both males and females working together to collect mud and carefully construct the nest. House Martins typically raise two broods during the summer months. As autumn approaches, you may spot flocks overhead, catching insects as they prepare for their return journey. Easily recognized by their glossy black backs, white bellies, and distinctive white rump, their numbers have declined significantly, earning them a place on the UK Red List in 2020. This decline is especially notable in the South and East, with one contributing factor potentially being the increased use of PVC in modern construction, which hampers their nesting success. We're so pleased to provide a safe haven for these wonderful birds at Wheal Jane and hope to see them thriving here for years to come.

  • We were pleased to welcome representatives from The Coal Authority, Environment Agency, and Cornwall Council to Wheal Jane yesterday for their annual site visit. This important visit provided an opportunity for them to review our ongoing work and discuss future plans for improved site management, operational resilience and environmental protection. We are proud to operate and maintain the Wheal Jane mine water treatment plant for The Coal Authority, and appreciate their continual support as we push to achieve the highest standards in maintaining and operating this crucial environmental protection scheme. #WhealJane #EnvironmentalSustainability #Collaboration #Cornwall #EnvironmentalProtection

  • We manage and operate the Wheal Jane mine water treatment process for The Coal Authority who are funded by Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs It pumps metal-laden water 365-days a year from deep beneath the Cornish scenery, preventing it from reaching the precious Fal Estuary. In January alone, it treated over 1 billion litres of mine water before releasing it safely back into the Bissoe River west of Truro. This is why we take operating and maintaining this plant so seriously. It requires a lot of hard work and organisation, delivered by a trusted team of skilled operators supported by the wider John F Hunt Water Tech organisation.
