U K Independent :

A huge underground river appears to be flowing thousands of feet beneath the Amazon, Brazilian scientists have claimed.

Valiya Hamza of Brazil's National Observatory said researchers found indications that the subterranean river is 3,700 miles long, about the same length as the Amazon on the surface.

Mr Hamza said the discovery of the possible underground river came from studying temperature variations at 241 inactive oil wells drilled in the 1970s and 1980s.

He said "thermal information" provided by the state oil company Petrobras allowed his team to identify the movement of water 13,100 feet beneath the Amazon.

The Amazon, the earth's second-longest river, is by far the largest in terms of water flow, draining a large part of South America.

I am sure a project from Brazil will qualify for recovery funds Pepper, but probably not if it ends up in this country sorry!
