Presentation transcript:

The largest surface mine in the world This diamond mine is in Eastern Siberia within the town called “Mirny”. Its 525 meters deep and 1.2 km across.

On next slide it’s like a tiny dot . The truck “Belaz” is one of the largest in the world, its 13,36 m long 7,78 m wide and 6,65 m tall. On next slide it’s like a tiny dot .

The hole is so large that its “airspace” is closed to aircraft as the wind causes unpredictable vortex.

As the Russians say, “Tuffski –Shitsky” or in the language we understand “Piss on the environment” As the Russians say, “Tuffski –Shitsky” or another way “Piss on the enviroment”
