In 1932 on the territory of Korkino in the Chelyabinsk region, found thick layers of coal under a thin layer of waste rock. Today, it is visible from the highway M36 dumps long ridge - the result of mining of large coal deposits. Incision itself is more directly behind this ridge and is a huge hole in the bottom of which is far below swarm malenkie- small excavators, bulldozers, and of people, of course, also: coal mining is carried out on the cut so far. Home and perhaps the only noteworthy attraction mining town Korkino. Sent to the incision need a clear day, it is advisable to wind to dispel the smog over the cut, or see anything because of the accumulation of gases will be difficult.

1. The scope of this hole with a diameter of about 2, 5 km is very difficult to convey in photos.
And now precisely. 70-200L lens that absolutely nothing was taken with him (along with laptop with proven navigation in real time on Google Earth).
2. At the bottom of laid railway line to standard gauge of 1520 mm. Periodically her shift with increasing excavation. Work park UHT for 2006 consists of 14 electric locomotives PE2M and 15 electric locomotives PE2U
3. If I understand correctly, this traction substation for the w / d branches.
4. Slice the breed profile. On one of the "steps" visible w / e branch.
5. Excavators. Bucket capacity this colossus of 10 cubic meters. m.
6. A little closer last frame. Right - crawler tractor.
7. We were very lucky with the weather, because usually at the bottom of accumulated gases, which creates a gray-blue veil, because of which nothing can be seen.
8. Returning to the topic of gas accumulation at the bottom of the quarry - the cost of coal production in this way, almost higher than the mining method.
9. The conveyor belts at the bottom of the quarry.
10. Trains run from 6 + 2 cars. On the rise up pushing cars in front of him.
11. Several years ago, on one side of the quarry landslide.
12. Below periodically blasting work.
13. Another landslide on the same side.
14. The low point career.
15. Theoretically, for a new extreme - here you can go off the bike.
16. Handling breed. Then they brought it up at the ore processing plant.
17. Top left piles of rock, artificially created mountain, reaching 100 meters in height and in length stretching more than 25 km.
18. In the story became famous "Korkinsky explosion", is preparing more than six months and is accompanied by the evacuation of the city. July 16, 1936 at 10 pm Moscow time was exploded. Weight lifted soil has reached more than half a kilometer altitude, the explosion was thrown around a million cubic meters of earth, explosion itself recorded seismic stations all over the world.
19. Mine is on the opposite side of the pit. This is where the shaft goes into the ground, which is connected to the lowest point of the cut.
20. F / A branch on the extreme close.
21. Wires. Fixed taking into account the possibility of transferring.
22. Below is constantly somewhere burns coal, directly in situ.
23. Each ledge about 20 feet high.
Then go exactly the opposite side of the quarry, near the mine. And went down to 5 degrees. Here's a general view on the other side, to the right the sun shines, and highlights the extreme side of the quarry.
24. The bottom of the pit. Postaokaliptichesky landscape. Remind - excavator photo size of a house!
25. The man-made wonder.
26. Fantastic landscape.
27. Slice the breed.
28. The wires down. Photographed against the sun was almost impossible because of the harsh shadows and smoke air.
Then go back to the main official observation deck section. View - no.
29. In the distance, a little right of center, near the white columns m going down to 5 degrees.
30. Burning rock in situ.
31. Golden Autumn in the Urals - it is very beautiful.
32. A rock slowly rises to the top ... The way from the bottom upward career takes about 3 hours.
