    What you see at 5:02 is called a thermocline. Difference between colder and warmer water. Seen a few myself when scuba diving in some deep rock quarries

      It actually looks like hydrogen sulfide layer. Usually thermoclines look blurry but not cloudy like that

    I know this is late but I just found it. I was thinking 'what's with the exotic gas' until I remembered that what I explore dry can be hundreds of feet below the surface. Something I've heard a couple of times is that the timbers supporting the back and ribs of a tunnel retain a great deal more strength if they remain completely submerged compared to those timbers in a shaft with high humidity or occasionally submerged. True? Great video. Thanks for sharing.

    Apparently the mine is no longer radioactive?? Did you bring a Geiger counter or rely on others saying it was fine?

    • @witoldhoffmann
      @witoldhoffmann  6 лет назад +5

      We worked in this mine for couple of years, checking water and air radioactivity. As most of radiation comes from radon gas released deep in the mine, actually air there is much more dangerous than being underwater....;) That's why mine is being ventilated.

      @@insidiouspeanut Why would uranium rods be used to heat the water in a nuclear power plant? I am confused by you stating uranium is highly soluble in water. In this mine it will be unrefined ore. I have never had any of my ore samples dissolve in water. Can you give me some hints to make my uranium ore samples become highly soluble?
