Скачать или смотреть Behind the scenes at a Nevada gold mine 2,200 feet below ground

Nevada has a long history of mining — and it’s still leading the nation in gold production today.

We went nearly half a mile underground at Turquoise Ridge, one of Nevada’s largest operating gold mines, to see how 900 workers produce about 500,000 ounces of gold each year.

From drilling and blasting deep beneath the desert to processing ore in massive high-pressure autoclaves, this is a 24/7 operation that could keep running through 2050.
