Collins (1912) reports that a Perran Vale Mine at Perranzabuloe sold 94 tons of copper ore worth £442 in 1830-1. Though, a mine worked under this name around 1830 cannot be located at Perranzabuloe. The same record was listed earlier by Phillips and Darlington (1857), but without providing a specific location for the mine. Thus, it may be that it was mis-located by Collins and the record really refers to this mine.
