The planet Mars in Nicosia (copper mine)
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
The Mediterranean island of Cyprus is synonymous with copper. Literally. The Greek name for the island is "Kupros". Copper mining on the island dates to thousands of years BC. With its best mineral resources having been extracted, mining is no longer a significant part of the economy of Cyprus. That being said, the heritage is still visible. In this video, contributor Picture Element used a drone to film a copper mine "lake" (distinguishable by its colorful appearance) near the Cypriot capital city Nicosia.
