Photo of the Day: Ground opens up at potash mine

Steve Mitchell on ICIS Fertilizers has just sent me this photo of the further collapse last week of the Berezniki 1 potash mine in Russia's Perm region. You can read about it in Rebecca's article on ICIS news. The sinkhole was caused by flooding, and is now threatening the nearby railway line. Must be a bit worrying for the workers in those buildings too.
