A valley of dead excavators in Ukraine

Morozov quarry is one of the largest coal mines of the Ukraine. Some five years ago it continued. Every hour a huge draglines shipped hundreds of truckloads of coal. Now they are slowly rusting and waiting to be lowered to the scrap. Soviet machinery, the 70-ies, and German, pre-war. This post is about the iron monsters Morozov career.





Morozov cut is one of the few places in Ukraine, which have been producing brown coal. The company narrowly survived the ' 90s and only recently, procrasti work. In 2009 the company cut off electricity for debt. Technology has become, the staff was fired, the quarry filled with groundwater. The cut waiting for reclamation – saying it wants to develop Chinese. Recently Morozov pit is quite popular among fans of industrial. However, every month "exhibits" are becoming less and less, and to get to them all the more difficult.





Quarry well-guarded. Top two posts. The guards are great guys, used to work here with the excavator. Loaded Trucks scurry back and forth literally every five minutes. To take away is that. Men firmly believe that soon, the excavators will be repaired and production will revive. As they say – blessed are those who believe.
