China Town Dawg ! =)

1. How deep is the deepest mine in the world?


-TauTona gold mine in South Africa   ;3.6 km

2. How deep would you have to dig to reach the mantle?


3000 km
 
3. Let's pretend that you and your friends tried to dig a hole in your backyard to find a shortcut to China. The thing is, you guys had special suits that could withstand extreme temperatures, so you would not die. If you were somehow able to reach the mantle, what would it look like? What kinds of things would you see? How about the outer core? Inner core? What would it look like as you approached the surface (the crust) on the other side?
 
The mantle would look like a huge rock with high temperatures. My friends and I would see a liquid- solid rock.  The outer core was a liquid and we would able to basically chill in a hot tub. The inner core would be ride a bike and try out skateboarding for once. As I approach the crust I would see grass, people and maybe a toy store.
