The three local mines have raised more than £8,500 since records began in 2000.
The society’s honorary agent Captain Bob Asplet, who has serviced the Jersey mines for the past 27 years with his wife Norma, has recently had to stand down due to ill health.
Former harbourmaster Captain Brian Nibbs temporarily took over responsibilities.
Responding to a plea for assistance to refurbish the mines, current harbourmaster Captain Bill Sadler offered the services of marine apprentice Adam Hart under the supervision of marine operations manager Fleur Moisan.

Captain Nibbs said: “Adam has done an excellent job in between his other duties, and the mines – now in pristine condition, bearing in mind that they are of WWII vintage – are back in position ready to resume collections.”
Captain Howard Le Cornu, another former harbourmaster, has accepted the position of honorary agent for Jersey and will be able to keep a constant weather eye on the mine at St Helier Marina as it is only 50 yards from his office window.
