"On Sunday we made a visit to largest open pit copper mine in the world. The hole is 1.2 km deep and has from the edge a diameter of more than 4 km! The mining area is large enough to be seen from the space. The small black points in the picture are really enormous trucks, which transport the material to the surface. To show the size of the trucks to clarify there is a photo of us beside a tire."
