Background:

Jubilee (town, Perm region) - it founded in 1966, but began to mine coal here as early as 1797 in the tunnel dammed. The Jubilee is located fairly large Shumikhinsky mine. In the 90 years of field Kizelskogo coal basin were recognized unprofitable, then gradually began to close mines and resettle residents. Of course, the crisis of 1998 has done his job, then the mines closed one and all. Money for the relocation of the state was not, therefore, vouchers for flats in birch and Perm were given only to those who have been directly related to the mines. Pensioners and family who have not worked in the mines gradually remained in a hurry to leave the city alone: ​​to sell the apartment is no longer possible, and the operation was not and was not expected. Because of the large municipal debt and the same unprofitable in some high-rise buildings cut off electricity, gas pipes cut. Many left to relatives "for a time, until all ustakanilos", but the prospect of returning to an unheated, plundered the house was terrible, so the village is abandoned until now.

Looking scattered on the number of old, already useless houses with many apartments, each of whom watched the story of entire families, so recklessly throw those defenseless box at the mercy of the wind and rain, playgrounds, once knew the children's laughter, and now creaking rusty hinges swing in the wind.

-Who?

Yes, people. Part of the departed, and the rest Porush. Look, see, the children are now among the wreckage of play? But before the village was beautiful ... The school was beautiful - she shows us half blue three-storey building, as though suddenly chopped giant ax - School also destroyed. We are very much asked to leave it as a monument of architecture, but it was destroyed. As the mine was abandoned and destroyed everything. And to us what to do?

-And The mines that was?
