Today, that mine opens its tunnels with a mistery mystery, starting from s Us depths winds loaded with poison, radiation and strange odors that most associate already with what is happening.For now, no one dares to give a clear conclusion.The authorities have ordered that the inhabitants of Kalachi leave the town to be relocated in neighboring cities, while specialists from the «Centers for disease and control» from the United States arrive in the region, to find out the origin of this problem.
