1 - Cave of Crystals (Mexico)
墨西哥水晶山洞The Cave of Crystals, located in the working Naica Mine of Chihuahua,Mexico, has captivated the world since it was first discovered in 2000by two brothers drilling in the Naica lead and silver mine. Until you notice the
orange-suited men clambering around, it's hard to grasp the
extraordinary scale of this underground crystal forest which are some of the largest natural selenite crystals in the world, with stunning crystal formations measuring more than 30ft (9.2m) in length and over4ft (1.2m) in diameter. They are formed from groundwater saturated in calcium sulphate which, warmed by an intrusion of magma about a mile below, began filtering through the cave system millions of years ago.
位于墨西哥吉娃娃奈卡矿地的水晶山洞自2000年被在矿地钻井的兄弟两发现以后一直受到世界的关注。

人类所能企及之地，再也没有办法找到这样规模的水晶地底森林了，其中包括了世界上最大的亚硒酸钡水晶，其30英尺（9.2米）长超过4英尺（1.2米）的直径。

其因为地下水渗透到硫酸钙中，又被几百万年前渗透到洞穴系统的将近一米深的岩浆温暖所形成的。
