  • okay so what is this then, it looks friggin weird.
  • There are some russian docs (don't have the URL handy at the moment) which refer to this place as an ash dump.
  • That would be a hell of a lot of ash :S
  • I'm sure the ash is radioactive as hell, too. Between the dumping and the accidents there's no place that's safe around Mayak.
