Tin mining knowledge spread to other European tin mining districts from Erzgebirge and evidence of tin mining begins to appear in Brittany, Devon and Cornwall, and in the Iberian Peninsula around 2000 BC. These deposits saw greater exploitation when they fell under Roman control between the third century BC and the first century AD.
HISTORY OF TIN MINING Tin ore has been mined in Malaya for centuries. At that time, mining methods were primitive and tin ores were mined along the river banks. It was the discovery of large deposits of tin ore in Larut, Perak, in 1848 by Long Jaafar that started the development of the tin mining industry in Malaya. Long Jaafar

TIN mining is one of the oldest industries in Malaysia.
Tin mining is one of the earliest type of mining operated in Malaysia, starting in the 1820s in Perak and in 1824 in Selangor. The development of mining industries in Malaysia attracted many Chinese immigrants who came to the state in 18th and 19th centuries to work and develop the mine fields.
In Brazil, Malaysia and Thailand,the tin industry provides tantalum as a component of the tin slag byproduct, that arises from the smelting of cassiterite ore concentrates for tin production. Struverite concentrates (a TiNbTa mineral) have historically also been available from northern Malaysia containing 912% tantalum oxide.
Most Malaysian tin comes from two states, Perak and Selangor, which together account for about 90 percent of the country''s tin mining output; tin has been produced in Malaysia for more than 2,000 years. The principal methods of mining are by gravel pump and dredging which account for about 80 percent of total mine output.
They are mined by one of several surfacemining methods, principally gravel pumping, dredging, and, to a smaller extent, openpit mining. A large proportion of tin ore is mined by gravel pumping. In this method, the barren overburden is removed, often by draglines or shovels, and highpressure water jets are used to break up and dislodge the tinbearing sand.

PUTRAJAYA: The government is planning to revive the tin mining industry in Malaysia back to its golden age, as achieved decades ago when it was the largest tin producer in the world.
The first trunk road in Peninsular Malaysia was routed through the main tin mining towns of Seremban, Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh and Taiping. Thus it can be seen that the pioneering work of developing

tin mining started at the fifth century on Bintan island, located in the area currently known as the Province of Riau Islands. In Bangka, tin has been mined since the time of the Sriwijaya kingdom, a super powerful and maritime traditional state in Southeast Asia during the seventh The system of tin mining was simple, known as tim
While initially Malayas tin mining industry was essentially in Chinese ownership, this situation changed markedly when, with the support of the British colonial administration and in a context of rising wage rates of miners, Europeans injected large amounts of capital, managerial expertise, and technology into the industry, including hydraulic sluicing and other scientific methods in dealing with the alluvial tin deposits.
#0183;#32;In the 1980s, depletion of tin mines in Malaysia and the collapse of tin prices led to sharp falls in local production. Today, Malaysian tin exports account for less than 2 per cent of global output.
