Cornish Mineworkers in Real del Monte-Pachuca, Mexico, Part Two (1824-2024)

Two hundred years ago, the first group of Cornishmen arrived at the silver mines in Mexico's Sierra Madre Orientale to begin work for the Real del Monte Mining Company. Their arrival began a remarkable story that has bound the mining nations of Cornwall and Mexico together for two centuries. In this, the second of three films, Cornish historian, Dr Sharron Schwartz, traces the journey made by an intrepid group of fifteen men, nine of them Cornishmen, from their arrival in Mexico to the Real del Monte silver mines.
