Has anyone ever been able to dig through the Earth's crust?
The Kola Superdeep Borehole project (in the USSR) attempted to drill as deep as possible into the Earth's crust. Drilling began on 24 May 1970 and the deepest hole, SG-3, reached 12,261 metres (40,230 ft) in 1989. Earlier, in 1961, an attempt was made to reach the Mohorovicic Discontinuity, the boundary between the earth's crust and mantle, by drilling through the oceanic crust. The US, through the National Science Foundation, sponsored Project Moho, which drilled 601 feet into the crust, beginning 11,700 feet below the ocean surface.
Miners have been able to dig 10 miles15 kilometers into Earth's crust.?
Miners have reached depths of approximately 10 miles (15 kilometers) into the Earth's crust, primarily in locations like the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia. This depth is significant as it provides valuable insights into the geological composition and conditions of the Earth's lower crust. However, even at this depth, only a small fraction of the Earth's total crust has been explored, highlighting the vastness and complexity of the planet's geology. The extreme conditions encountered at such depths, including high temperatures and pressures, pose significant challenges for mining and research.
Do skunks dig homes in the ground?
Yes, they dig burrows with their powerful front claws.
What do you dig to find water?
You can dig a simple well to reach groundwater. You can dig really deep to find an aquifer, a permeable rock layer that holds underground water.
What are the materials people use from the Earth's core?
ROCKS USED FROM THE EARTH'S CRUST We get lots of different types of rock from the earth's crust, such as gems building material and ores. Ores such as lead gold and manganese are used to make coins. Gems, for instance diamonds, rubies and sapphires, can be carved and used in rings necklaces and earrings. Carbon fuels like coal peat and oil are flammable materials from the earth's crust. There are different types of rucks used from the earth's core for example brick, sandstone and limestone are used for building houses. Quartz is used for making clocks and chalk is used for writing. Posted by Kieran FitzGerald Edinburgh 1M1 We also get gravel and granite from the Earth's crust. Granite is used for countertops in kitchens, bathrooms, etc. We dig and mine gravel. Gravel is used for driveways and in some parking lots. It looks like little pieces of rock.
How do people impact on earth's crust?
when we dig up the earth we are spreading things that are no to be in the air
How miners been able to dig into Earth's crust?
miners have been able to dig into the earths crust by big machines and other huge tools and they have only dig ed 2 miles into the earths crust
If you could dig one foot per minute how long would it take you to dig through the Earth's crust?
Months
If you could dig one foot per minute it would take you about six to dig through the Earth's crust.?
months Apex!
If you dig one foot per minute it would take about six to dig throw the earths crust?
The Earth's crust varies in thickness, averaging around 30 kilometers (about 18.6 miles) under continental regions and about 5-10 kilometers (3-6 miles) under oceanic regions. If you were to dig one foot per minute, it would take you approximately 15,840 minutes, or about 11 days, to dig through the average continental crust. Therefore, it would take significantly longer than six minutes to penetrate through the Earth's crust.
How long would it take to dig through the crust if you dug one foot per minute?
The crust is not of uniform thickness so it would depend on where you were digging.

Where can you hear dig dig dig?

Do people still dig graves?
Yes, people still dig graves because of their culture,beliefs and traditions.For example i Fiji, if a person died the relatives are the one who will dig the grave. People dig graves using a backhoe these days, not a shovel.
What do you call people who work in a archiogical dig?
People who work in archaeological digs are called archaeologists. They study human history through the excavation and analysis of artifacts and structures.
If you dig through the outermost layer of the earth where are you?
The outermost physical layer is the lithosphere (the crust plus the attached uppermost mantle).
Why do people dig canals in the ground?
For transportation. It is also the best place to dig them.
