  5. Mirny, Sakha Republic, Russia with a view of the famous helicopter sucking diamond pit mine.

  6. Mir (or Mirny) Diamond Mine, next to the town of Mirny in the Sakha Republic of Russia.

    This was more difficult to find than I expected.
    After finding a list of ~50 Open-pit mines (which was easy), it turned out that this was one of the last ones on the list I looked up. I was beginning to worry it might not be on the list!
