The bottom of Burschytskyi Dump is of no less interest. Here you can see the ruins of industrial aboveground buildings of the Mines number 5 and New-South Valyavka of the former Illich Mine; open and gaping shafts of these mines are coming to a depth of 60 and 380 meters; you can hear the sound of falling stones into the bottomless depths of the dungeon.
