how deep is the deepest well
If the hole had reached the initial goal of 15,000 meters, temperatures would have reached a projected 300Â°C (572Â°F). When drilling stopped in 1994, the hole was over seven miles deep (12,262 meters), making it by far the deepest hole ever drilled by humankind. The last of the cores to be plucked from from the borehole were dated to be about 2.7 billion years old, or roughly 21 million times older than Coca Cola.
