South Africa's Mponeng Gold Mine is the deepest mine in the world. It reaches a depth of 2.5 miles below ground Level, and it takes over an hour to reach the bottom of the mine from the surface. Illegal miners sneak into the mine and hide there for months at a time. Deprived of sunlight, their skin turns gray, and they are called "ghosts."
