Help Soldering 3.5mm mono microphone plug

[Brybo86]

Wire got ripped off the plug and I need to try and fix it.
Brand of mic is countryman
We use it with a sennheiser wireless system.

It looks like there is just a single wire in the cable and on the plug side everything appears to have been going into the same clump of solder?

There is a tiny little wire in the plug end that I'm not exactly sure where it goes?

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Let me know if you need more info or another picture

That's a stereo plug with two channels and earth but is being used in a mono application. Looks like they have shorted one channel to earth leaving just two connections. Your cable is probably co-axial so the screen will be soldered to earth and the core wire to the central connection (thin red wire).

"Earth" is the shielding. Mics are very low power so their cables can pick up electrical noise.

barryh u were right, shielding plus a tiny black and red wire
I soldered the shield and the black together touching the base then the thin red where it was already going.

thx all
