The Kimberley Diamond Mine also known as the Big Hole is considered the largest hand-dug hole in the world. After the first diamond was found in this mine in the 19th century, there were 50,000 workers rushed to here, looking forward to change their life thanks to diamonds. Workers who worked tirelessly dug up to 2.720kg diamonds. Surprisingly, these miners did not use any advanced machines but only used human power and very simple tools such as hoes and shovels.
