Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Information on dressing and burning.It reads:
“The spalling floor to your left was where the ore arrived and where it would be pounded with sledge hammers until it was small enough to go to the water powered stamps set next to the stream. After settling in the nearby tanks and concentrated in the circular buddles, the tin was sent to the calciner - a stone oven where it would be roasted to burn off arsenic and other impurities. The workers here would have been well aware of the dangers posed by arsenic, and would have avoided breathing in the fumes.”
