 A Russian mini-submarine reached the bottom of Lake Baikal, setting a record for the deepest dive in a lake.


"The Mir-2 has reached the bottom of Lake Baikal at a depth of 1,680 meters (5,512 feet)," ITAR-TASS reported from the barge 1 where the submarine was diving from.
Artur Chilingarov, a pro-Kremlin member of parliament and an Arctic explorer organized the scientific expedition.
Scientists plan to collect samples at different depths and hope to document the effects of global warming on the Siberian lake, as well as drawing the attention of the government to the need for greater environmental protection.
"We want to study and observe Baikal, preserve it," Chilingarov said ahead of the dive as he inspected the Soviet-designed Mir-1 and Mir-2 submarines in the small port of Turka on the shores of Lake Baikal.
Expedition member Anatoly Sagalevich said the expedition could turn up new species of wildlife living at the bottom of the lake, which has never been explored, as well as possible reserves of gas and oil.
Lake Baikal is the deepest lake and largest reserve of fresh water in the world, although not the largest lake in terms of surface area. Environmental groups say pollution is threatening the pristine 2 lake.
