Fantastic 'Virgin Pool' Never Before Seen By Humans Discovered Deep In New Mexico Cave (Video & Pictures)

Now explorers have discovered something uniquely remarkable – an isolated pool of milky-blue water untouched by humans, 700ft below ground. Carlsbad Caverns announced the discovery on Facebook on June 2020, calling the site found within Lechuguilla Cave completely pristine. Geoscientist Max Wisshak, who led the expedition wrote: The edges beneath this pool appear to be 'pool fingers', which could be bacterial colonies that have evolved entirely without human presence.
