Metalliferous Mining Search

Metalliferous Mining Search

What is a Metalliferous Mining Search?

A Metalliferous Mining Search is a property specific report which reveals if a property is at risk of past, present or future Metalliferous Mining. For example, a Metalliferous Mining Search details any mining activity relating to Metalliferous Mining, how close the mining work was to the property in question, if there are any nearby shafts and includes a detailed plan.

A Metalliferous Mining Search can be ordered on a Residential and Commercial property. There are many areas of the country that are affected by Metalliferous Mining but the most common area is Cornwall. Our Metalliferous Mining Search also includes information on Tin Mining.

If you require further information or have any questions regarding a Metalliferous Mining Search, please do not hesitate to contact us HERE.

Coal Mining Reports including Cheshire Brine information can be purchased for a Residential or a Commercial property.

Cheshire Brine is a type of salt and has been mined from underground deposits for hundreds of years in the area of Cheshire leaving massive caves underground which are liable to subsidence which could cause damage to property. A compensation scheme is in place and the area covered by this scheme can be identified from a Cheshire Brine Search which is included within the Coal Mining Report as part of the Mining Reports that Pali offer.

Metalliferous Mining Reports (including Tin)

A Metalliferous Mining Report including Tin is produced with reference to the extensive mining archive in order to provide an assessment of mining risk to the property in question. The report includes a plan showing the property boundary and any mining features which may be considered as a risk to the property. Clear recommendations will be provided where further action need to may take place such as visual inspection of the property. Metalliferous Mining Reports including Tin Mining can be purchased for a Residential or a Commercial property.

Gypsum Mining Reports

Gypsum Mining Reports establish whether it is likely that a property will suffer from mining subsidence if it is built on or near a former Gypsum mine. Gypsum is a mineral used in the production of plaster, plasterboard and cement. Abandoned opencast Gypsum mines are often back filled and the waste from the mines are dumped into landfills which can be reclaimed for housing. Gypsum mining has taken place and still takes place in East Sussex, Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire and Cumbria. Gypsum Mining Reports can be purchased for a Residential or a Commercial property.

China & Ball Clay Mining Reports

China & Ball Clay Mining Reports is carried out to establish whether a property is on land with known clay deposits which may be worked in the future or whether it has been mined in the past. For properties in Cornwall, Devon and Dorset these Mining Reports should be seriously considered. China & Ball Clay Mining Reports will reveal if a property is likely to suffer from subsidence due to past mining activities. China clay is commercial clay composed principally of kaolinite and Ball clay is a fine, highly plastic sedimentary clay which is near white in colour. China & Ball Clay Mining Reports can be ordered for both Residential & Commercial properties.

Limestone Mining Reports

A Limestone Mining Reports should be considered for properties in the West Midlands where limestone mining was common until the 1930s. Mining activity has ceased since then therefore, the risk is diminishing as more time passes. However a potential subsidence risk does still remain. Limestone Mining Reports can be ordered for both Residential & Commercial properties.
