Coal in Poland
Did you knew, that Polish hard coal mine – KWK Budryk (JSW) has its shaft so deep, that it could fit inside both Burj Khalifa (828m, tallest building in world) and Shanghai Financial Center (492m, 9th on that list)? The average shaft in Poland is 750m deep, and the miners work there everyday in 30ºC (86ºF).
