The following list of deepest caves in the world appears in the Oct/
Nov 2007 issue of Regards, the magazine of the Wallonian Speleological
Society.
1. Voronja - Krubera (Georgia) 2,170 meters (I think I've seen 2190
elsewhere)
2. Snezhnaya - Mezhonnogo - Illjuzia (Georgia) 1750
3. Gouffre Mirolda / Lucien Bonelier (France) 1733
4. Lamprechtsofen Vogelschacht Weg Schacht (Austria) 1632
5. Reseau de Jean Bernard (France) 1602
6. Torca del Cerro del Cuevon / Torca de las Saxifragas (Spain) 1589
7. Sarma (Georgia) 1543
8. Cehi 2 (la Vendetta) / Ceki 2 (Slovenia) 1533
9. Shakhta Vjacheslava Pantijukhina (Georgia) 1508
10. Sima de la Cornisa (Spain) 1507
Some of those names are subject to vagaries of transliteration, and
some may be subject to typos, too. Georgia is of course the country,
not the state. Georgia seems to really hot lately.
