Default Thread posted with pics of diamond mine??

Can anyone - or the original poster point me in the direction of the thread that had those amazing pics of the biggest(?) diamond mine.

There was a pic of a truck half way down that looked like an ant and also it said it was a no fly zone over it because of it sucking aircraft in (I think).

My mate didn't believe me when I told him about it and have tried using the search function but still can't find it.

Thanks in advance.
