Can't remember the exact year, but 45-50 years ago Texaco drilled a well in South Louisiana and drilled into a massive salt mine. Drained the lake! History Channel did a show on it. Texaco got the blame but after a full investigation, the survey data on the salt mine was in error and the real root cause.

That was Lake Peignuir near Jefferson Island Louisiana. Late 80s. They drilled into the Jefferson Island salt mine. Luckily the mine was shut down. The story is titled the day Lake Peignuir was drained i think.

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.

I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
