Guatemala City Causes of the Formation of Caves

The cause of the formation of holes in Guatemala is actually man-made.

It happened once in 2007.

Guatemala City, the capital of Guatemala, is a mountain town, and basically, all the urban districts are built on top of a hill. The area of the accident belongs to Zone 2 of Guatemala. Belongs to the lower middle class and slums.

In this area, the municipal construction maintenance is not very good. Due to the rupture and infiltration of underground water pipes in Guatemala, the subsoil is washed away by the water flow, gradually forming an empty bottom and a real upper layer. The climate of Guatemala is not divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter, only the dry season and the rainy season.

And now it's the rainy season in Guatemala. Therefore, after a large amount of rainwater, the soil loosens and infiltrates the groundwater, so the soil on the upper surface is constantly carried away by the cavities that have appeared in the lower layer, and finally gradually because it can not withstand the pressure of the upper house, so there is a sudden subsidence. Cause such a big hole.

The subsidence of the land in 2007 was also due to this, and it also occurred during the rainy season.

This time, it was not only due to the rainy season, but also due to the shaking caused by the eruption of the Pagaya volcano some time ago.

It should be caused by underground nuclear engineering, because nuclear testing is not obvious to every country, and it is studied by every country, it may be that the underground support structure built is damaged and collapsed, and natural causes can cause such a regular cave? I don't believe anyone else. Take a closer look at the texture of the four walls inside the cave. Reference.

Apparently something is wrong with the underground nuclear facilities.

** Subsidence It seems that human beings can no longer live on the surface of the earth, invent a technology to allow human beings to build houses in the air, no longer use the ground as support, so that they are no longer afraid of what it is**, the ground is subsidence, this imagination is not impossible, like the myth of Jackie Chan, the building hangs in the air.

It's ridiculous, it actually has a bottom, and it disappoints me.

Is it related to karst caves? Then whether it is in the ** zone, the dislocation of the plate makes the space below, and the weakness zone collapses under the influence of external factors, it is obvious that there is space below. As for how to form the space below, it has to be determined on the spot.

The strong hurricane caused the saucer to crash and fall, and the extremely high speed caused it to smash into a deep crater that was very round and round.

With the recent increase in disasters and the horrific happenings, is 2012 really the end of the earth? Where is Noah's Ark to save us?

1.I think maybe Guatemala has a bad drainage system and the underground rock formations are limestone. Under the strong dissolution of groundwater for many years, the rock mass has formed a huge karst cave, resulting in the overlying clay without support.

When the latest heavy rainfall of more than 1 meter occurred, the soil was saturated, and the moisture content reached the plastic limit, causing the soil to collapse. Thus a hole was formed. It's kind of like a landslide.

2.Some BBS say that it is an alien time tunnel, and they do not disagree with it.

3.What else is said to be the end of the world in 2012, if you believe it, it is better to commit suicide immediately, so as not to wait until then to suffer the sin. It is not so much that the housing prices are too expensive now, and the brothers who live in the center of the earth are also idle to borrow two sets on the ground. Ha ha.

Guatemala. Why is there such a big hole? All in the name of this city "Guatemala"!!

Previously covered extinct craters - I can think of reasons.

The direct cause of the collapse must be the formation of a cavity underground, which will lead to the creation of a cavity. And why do cavities form in the ground? There are many reasons for this, such as the geological causes of Guatemala City, which are washed away by rainwater, and the groundwater gradually carries away the soil from the ground (due to the poor drainage system), forming underground cavities.

The heavy rain only contributed to the results.

The hole looks so round, it doesn't look like it's rain, it always feels like it's an artificially created ......

On May 31, a 60-meter-deep cavity appeared in Guatemala City, the capital of Guatemala, due to the impact of Hurricane Agatha, and there were witnesses who reported that a three-story building fell into the hole, killing at least one person. Local residents say the ground has collapsed due to heavy rains and defective drainage facilities.

The circumference of this cave is 500 meters long. Authorities suspect that the hole is due to an unusual situation at the site of the incident, and the authorities attribute the main cause of the disaster to the recent rains and the rupture of the sewage pipe underneath.

Expecting the right answer, all of the above is nonsense. Identification done!

Didn't anyone think about 2012?

One by one, they deceived themselves.

2012 is fast approaching, anything is possible. Didn't you see the plot in the movie?

I have been disappointed not to be able to witness the birth of the earth, so let me witness the destruction of the earth now!

Same question? Looking forward to it, thank you.

It's incredible, it seems that our country has such a big hole in Sichuan, Guangxi, and Meizhou in Guangdong. I don't know if it's related. Could it be that some habit in our daily life is the result?

Or is there really an outside force or something. I hope we will pay more attention to this issue. Then work together to solve this problem, so that everyone has a beautiful home!

There have been reports from the Chinese side that it is caused by the drop in the groundwater level

I guess no one can explain it now, but I guess it's because there's an underground arsenal or something like that under that land, and they've hollowed it out and sunk it in place.

Below 60 meters, it is empty.

I'm afraid that geological knowledge can't be answered.

Didn't you talk about nuclear bomb shafts?

It's crazy to live nearby.

Haha, I was about to ask that question too! It's amazing. But none of the above is very satisfying.

Caused by dissolution and collapse like limestone!!

Stephens, a Jewish traveler, finds a cave through an old priest who lacks friends. From here, it takes less than an hour to get from western Guatemala to Mexico.

In the tunnels, Stephens saw the pointed arches hewn out of stone.

This, he believes, is the most incredible mystery of the American continent, connecting the underground passes found today near the city of Cusco in Peru, which in South America, leads to Lima to the north and to Bolivia to the south.

The capital of Timara.

Guatemala City.

A 60-metre-deep and 30-metre-diameter cavity appeared in the north, where locals said a three-storey building and a house had been swallowed up by the burrow, and a private security guard had died. It is reported that the slag is raised, and the ground hole is smiling.

It is caused by the inability of the local fragile underground plumbing system to drain rainwater away. In 2007, a similar collapse occurred in the area, when three people were killed.

On May 31, 2010, a 60-meter-deep cavity appeared in Guatemala City, the capital of Guatemala, due to the impact of Hurricane Agatha, and there were witnesses who reported that a three-story building and a private house were falling into the hole, and a private security guard was killed. Cavities are caused by the collapse of the ground due to the inability of the local fragile underground pipe system to drain rainwater away. In 2007, a similar cavity occurred in the area, killing three people.

On February 23, 2007, a huge hole in Guatemala City appeared in the field. The cave is 100 meters deep and has a circumference of about 500 meters. According to local **, the cave devoured the lives of three people, destroyed more than 10 houses, and disappeared into the cave with a police station.

This big hole exudes a foul smell. Witnesses said the ground in the vicinity shook before the hole appeared. More than 700 residents in the vicinity of the incident were forced to evacuate.

In strict geological terms, a sinkhole is a large pit formed by the collapse of the earth's surface due to the continuous erosion of solid bedrock by water. There is a high chance of sinkholes in many parts of the United States. Guatemala's giant crater has expanded the term sinkhole even further, i.e., the sudden collapse of the ground.

Rather than being on solid bedrock, the ground in Guatemala City's partially hidden urban area is a layer of loose, gravel-made volcanic pumice, often hundreds of feet thick. At least one geologist said Guatemala City's latest sinkhole was caused by a pipeline leak and was not a natural phenomenon. In general, Guatemala is more likely to recur such events, but it is very difficult.
