The video begins with a blurry image that gradually comes into focus, revealing a large open pit mine. The pit is surrounded by mountains and has multiple levels of excavation visible. The color palette is predominantly brown and gray, with the earthy tones of the mountains and the metallic sheen of the exposed copper. The mine is vast, with a deep, circular shape and terraced levels. There are no visible workers or machinery, suggesting the video was taken from a distance. The text "Copper mines" appears in white font over the image, providing context to the viewer.
