Have you ever wondered what is the largest excavation on earth? The Bingham Canyon open-pit copper mine is the largest man-made excavation on earth, a hole nearly three miles wide and nearly four thousand feet deep. (For that matter, it's larger than most natural excavations—much bigger than the hole left when Mount St. Helens erupted, for example.) On a typical day, half a million tons of rock are dynamited, dug up, trucked out, crushed, concentrated, smelted, and finally refined into roughly eight hundred tons of pure copper.
