Oil coming up at giant sinkhole — Bottom now so deep, unable to measure with current equipment — Depth of over 500 feet in June was 140 ft

2013 July 10, Wednesday
Bayou Corne Sinkhole, Louisiana

We have yet to hear good news about the sinkhole situation in Bayou Corne, LA. Seeing it even once from the air is enough to make you realize that the hole isn't going away and the trees aren't coming back. But it's not possible to look at this picturesque community built so tastefully and discreetly along these beautiful bayous, and not wish that somehow the sinkhole could just go away.

after 1st set of pics 7-10 flyover

This thing is only going to continue to get worse.

The ever growing Corne hole...

Additional hydrocarbon and debris have come to the surface of the sinkhole. Also, John Boudreaux has tagged bottom in the center of the sinkhole (where the raindrop bubbles are occurring) and the depth is over 500′; although, debris was felt at about 175′ to 200′ (while the weight continued to fall to the 500′ depth). Attempts will be made some time this week to measure (with a longer measuring device) to obtain the depth of what is suspected to be the upside down witches hat.
We will update accordingly.

22-acre sinkhole near Bayou Corne is at least 500 feet deep, and not between 110 to 220 feet that has been estimated by Texas Brine.

The most recent sonar test on June 7 found the depth of the sinkhole to be 140 feet deep.

So messed up! Thank You, for sharing.

it is not on list of Largest Sinkholes

but man look at list

There are decided exceptions to the general law that the temperature increased with the depth. At the New Almaden quicksilver mine, in California, at a depth of about 600 feet the temperature was very high - some 115 degrees; but in the deepest part of the same mine, 1,800 feet below the surface and 500 feet below sea level, the temperature is very pleasant, probably less than 80 degrees. At the Eureka mines, in California, the air 1,200 feet below the surface appears nearly as cool as 100 feet below the surface. The normal temperature of the earth at a depth of 50 or 60 feet is probably near the mean annual temperature of the air at the particular place. At the Comstock mines, some years since, the miners could remain but a few moments at a time, on account of the heat.

I think that every time as well, "Buy You Corn Hole"

Thanks, OP for your continued reporting on this!

so if they do not know how deep are things warming up



The deepest penetration was approximately 180 m (590 ft). In 2005 an oceanic borehole reached 1,416 metres (4,646 ft) below the sea floor from the ocean drilling vessel JOIDES Resolution.
