Snaefell Mining Company

The Snaefell Mining Company was the original company formed to work the Great Snaefell sett on the Isle of Man; it went bankrupt in 1870, prompting former directors of the Great Laxey Mining Company to relaunch operations the following year as the Great Snaefell Mining Company.
