The Kamfundwa Mine (or Kamoya South II Mine) is one of the Kambove mines in the mining region around Kambove, Katanga Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is near the Shangulowé Mine, about north of the Kamoya mine district. ==Secret mine== The Kamoya South II Mine was opened in 1998 as a benched open cut secret mine. The "owners" of the mine employed a strict security force to prevent the miners taking specimens.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kamoya South II Mine (Kamoya Sud Mine; Kamoya South Mine), Kamoya, Kambove, Katanga Copper Crescent, Katanga (Shaba), Democratic Republic of Congo (Zaïre) )〕 In early 2001, it was reported that the mine started to produce carrollite crystals of extraordinary size and quality. Some single crystals were almost as large as baseballs. In fact, many specimens of carrollite were falsely attributed to Kamfundwa when it was still a secret location.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kamfundwa Mine (Kanfundwa Mine), Kambove, Katanga Copper Crescent, Katanga (Shaba), Democratic Republic of Congo (Zaïre) )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kamfundwa Mine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
