The Nikulino mine is the largest one in the coal field of the Moscow Region. The coal mined there had a high ash content equal to 30-40%. The underground relief in the mine was 50-70 workers. 30-40 workers mined coal and others only provided mining.
The direct places of mining were 150 m deep underground. However, all that remained in the past… As far back as 21st century the mine was drowned and shut down … Today it can be observed only from above – the concrete structures of the ventilation system and the fang.

Russian “rust belt”.
So these are some pretty cool pictures, too bad there are not any of inside of the mine. That would be cool to see. Makes you wonder what it would have looked like when it was up and running. Thanks for the pictures…
It is quite interesting! There must be still a whole lot of coal left there in the ground, and for some reson noone wants is??
Weird…
On September 17 1939 the treacherous Soviets ruthlessly attacked Poland, already under attack by Germans. Russians signed a pact with Germans to cut Poland in half and share the loot. Poland was once again betrayed and attacked by Soviet Russia. What followed was 50+ years of effective occupation by Russians in terms of communist government and presence of foreign army in the territory of Poland. May the memory of this hideous deed never be forgotten, in spite of continued attempts by Russians to rewrite history. Long live Poland!
It’s good to remember history, but nationalism is a divisive thing. No nation is better than another. Every nation has committed atrocities. Just be educated and know the truth; you can only hope others will also do so (but it’s doubtful).
Poland did exactly the same with Czechoslovakia just a moment before that. Irony.
The old, sad and known history of “big fish eats the small fish…”.

Why would they intentionally flood a mine?
