Abandoned Mine Discovered Under South Dakota Street As Sinkhole Open Up(Pics) by Explorers(op):
About a dozen houses in Black Hawk, South Dakota, were evacuated after a sinkhole opened under the Hideaway Hills.

The ground started to give way on the 27th of April and while it has left a lot of uncertainty for the locals, the situation has led to a unique discovery.

The authorities are already trying to figure out how this could’ve happened but in the meantime, explorers of a local caving group called decided to take a look inside.

“Upon entering, we immediately realized that it was an abandoned gypsum mine"


“We determined that the mine was over 2K feet across and over 150 feet wide.

It went directly under more than 12 homes”

“The full extent of the mine is still unknown as passages are either collapsed in, flooded, or too dangerous to enter”

Residents of the Hideaway Hills subdivision are now suing South Dakota, Meade County, and developers of the subdivision for more than $75,000,000.

The lawsuit on behalf of 119 homeowners also includes counts against title companies involved in sales of the homes, attorneys for previous owners, and real estate agents who sold the homes.


The residents are seeking more than $35,000,000 in compensatory damages, $40,000,000 in exemplary damages, and “such other relief as the court deems equitable”.

living ontop what can kill you without knowing.

Very dangerous thinking about all the things this mine could have been used for negatively if it were not discovered.

The mine seem very old though

They should use UAVs to explore the dangerous areas

Maybe Aliens are here with us on earth and hiding there.
