    In the second part of our Electric dreams series looking at the UK's automotive battery industry, we visit an area whose industrial past is being revitalised.An overgrown quarry in a quiet part of Cornwall is a good place to contemplate Britain's industrial past. It is here that miners used steam power, explosives and their own hands to dig out china clay for ceramics. The industry helped to fuel the Industrial Revolution and briefly made Redruth one of the richest places in the UK.The quarry is also a pretty good place to contemplate Britain's industrial future. Cornish Lithium, a UK startup, is one of a clutch of businesses hoping to revive British mining amid a global scramble for the battery minerals that are crucial for the transition away from fossil fuels.The shift to electric cars is upending the automotive industry. It has also set off a scramble for the minerals that will be used in every vehicle.South Croft Tin Mine, Pool, Cornwall.© Jim Wileman / Guardian / eyevineContact eyevine for more information about using this image:T: +44 (0) 20 8709 8709E: info@eyevine.comhttp://www.eyevine.com
