mirny diamond mine, serbia
i’m pretty sure most people have seen this one. it’s an absolute beast and holds the title of largest open diamond mine in the world. at 525 metres deep with a top diameter of 1200 metres there’s even a no-fly zone above the hole due to a few helicopters being ****ed in.
the red arrow in the photo below is pointing to a huge truck.
diavik mine, canada
this incredible mine can be found 300km northeast of yellowknife in canada.
the mine is so huge and the area so remote that it even has its own airport with a runway large enough to accomodate a boeing 737. it also looks equally as cool when the surrounding water is frozen.
sinkhole, guatemala
a sinkhole is caused when water (usually rainwater or sewage) is soaked up by the earth on a large scale, resulting in the ground collapsing.
these photos are of a sinkhole which occured early this year in guatemala. the hole swallowed a dozen homes and killed at least 3 people.
officials blamed the monster of a hole on a ruptured sewage pipe.
