The Mirny Diamond Mine in Siberia Our Marvelous World may be one - TopicsExpress



          

The Mirny Diamond Mine in Siberia Our Marvelous World may be one of the scariest mines in the world. It is over a thousand feet deep and thousands of feet wide. It is so large it actually creates its own local weather patterns and the space above it has had to be designated a no-fly zone for helicopters (after this problem was identified the hard way). Gigantic trucks (like the small dot pointed to above) can haul over 200 tons of material out of the mine at a time.
