Abandoned Mining and Chemical Combine
Writes blogger tov-tob
A month ago, went to the city, we stopped at the former Mining and Chemical Combine "Sіrka", which is near the city of Lviv region Novoyavorivsk. Generally, among the fans of abandonment is quite common plant accordion, but I first heard about it only in September. The spectacle there is certainly depressing - a huge factory rasdestroenny not rendered the market economy, is slowly dying mining shovels and others. Equipment.
Brief History
The company "Sіrka" began in 1969, when the Yavoriv district was started experimental extraction of sulfur. A few years later it was created a huge complex worth about 3 billion. Rub. The sulfur was mined as an open pit and underground smelting method. The company employed about 18 thousand. People, and for them and their families, was built by a separate city Novoyavorivsk (now Novoyavorivsk).
In the old days, "Sіrka" made up to 1, 5 million. Tons of sulfur per year. Across the Union, it was about a quarter of the annual needs. The acute shortage of this mineral has caused the haste in building the plant and its subsequent "scheduled" loss ratio (up to 50 rubles. Losses at 1 ton of sulfur).
With the collapse of the Union, the company was "unnecessary": impacted many economic relations and domestic factories, consumed sulfur were also in a state of stagnation. Moreover, the world has a new method for the production of sulfur in the purification of natural gas, which led to a crisis of all enterprises in the world that sulfur was mined by conventional methods. As a result, "Sіrke 'career from the most expensive way to opt back in the 90s. The rest of the company is somehow lived up to the mid-2000s, but eventually died and now are gradually work to eliminate it.

2. Suddenly the pipe with a minimum height of 50 m. Do not climb simply impossible.
