Abyss

In the 1930s, these low mountains covered with taiga forests mined precious metals (for example, iridosmine). Soon these forgotten mines, precious metals have been developed. But locals long before rumors of the enormous multi-level dungeons, lost in the woods ... Dungeons these do exist, though most of them are now flooded. We have planned an attempt to pump out flooded and drifts down to where no man has gone more than 50 years.
Obviously, the original tunnel (presumably XIX century) went deeper and knocked the other two - the ventilation at the top and bottom of the haulage. Until that time, the natural ventilation was - due to a pit, coming to the surface.
Workings resemble a comb - on both sides of the gallery perpendicular punched numerous exploration drifts.





Virtually the entire lining of the old part was dismantled and erected in the new mines. Crepe fastened only pairing workings and areas of weak rocks.
The plot is weak rocks



Pairing workings



Caving in conjunction





These drifts do not fastened, because the breed strong



But there are areas with weak rocks



It is evident that the lining will not collapse, and brought and folded to erect



View from exploratory development



Sami exploration drifts are quite low, but they were also laid rails for haulage.









They all end faces dotted bats



Old ventilation partition separating the mine shaft (maybe just rebelling) and tunnel



Behind her drift gently wraps and runs parallel to the main tunnel.



After a few tens of meters, he rests in the collapse



Initially, the water level in the tunnel was higher than the waist, but under some circumstances a sharply decreased.









Haulage of broken rock mass in the tunnel was carried out on the rails of narrow gauge, and one rail has a width of a head of about 1 cm at a high-rise cervix 3 cm, and the second rail - the width of the head about 2 cm at an altitude of approximately cervix 4 cm. What is the reason, so It is not clear. Maybe the old narrow gauge was replaced by a new one, replacing the rails on one side only.
Unfortunately, these areas were only under the rubble, the rest was dismantled in the metal.



This flooding of land to make way for sboyki with the lower horizon.



Inscriptions made by different people at different times. The earliest dates back to the year 1976, the latest date - 2000. Perhaps these people were active here in search of black metal





The length of this section of the order of 300 meters.



Racks also used from the old lining, but the bracket is quite new - rust on them quite a bit.



Part of ore stacked on the bottom for perespuska haulage horizon



The same ore pass leading into the unknown abyss. It is a square well, steering boards vertically along the entire length, depth of approximately 15 meters. Nearby railway tracks, from which emptied trolley.



It is very strange that there is no threaded rebels nowhere, leading down. Having estimated the volume of pumped water away from the surface (which is about 500 meters of fire hoses) and poor ventilation of this part of the production of diesel engines at work, the idea of ​​pumping the subsurface immediately disappeared by itself. Without a plan workings is necessary to forget about this place, I hope not for long.
