The Ice Rock Mining venture was launched in January 2017. The Ice Rock mining server farm is located inside of a mountain bunker in Almaty, Kazakhstan. The bunker was built by the Soviet Union in the 1950s. In response to the threat of nuclear war a number of huge mountain bunkers were created. The caverns were created inside the Kazakhstan Mountains to house equipment and supplies. Ice Rock Mining has taken advantage of these unused bunkers to convert them for bitcoin mining. The bunker's year round cool temperatures (12 degrees Celsius) and low humidity combined with cheap, clean hydroelectric energy (at 0.03 USD per kWh) provide an ideal cryptomining farm space.
The Ice Rock Mining site and property is owned by its CEO Malik Murzashev. He has a decade of experience working for other internet-based companies in both Kazakhstan and California (USA) where he developed blockchain projects. He is also an official Apple supplier-dealer in Kazakhstan. The main development team includes Dias Kurmanov who is in charge of managing and marketing, Mikhail Pluzhnikov the team’s Technical Director and Ruslan Murzashev who is the Legal Advisor.
While the outside of the bunker doesn’t look that impressive the work going on inside holds the potential for crypto-dividend payouts for this ICO’s token holders. Ice Rock Mining has offered to open its doors to a small number of its investors with an invitation to visit the cave.
The manager of Ice Rock Mining asks that those who are serious about visiting fill in the form found here:

Site visits will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The visit to the cryptomining site has some restrictions as the company will not allow visitors to take any photographs or videos, although Ice Rock Mining may video tape some of the visits for marketing and promotional purposes.
Security is also an issue and personal weapons (knives or firearms are not allowed) and extra guests are not allowed (only approved investors will be granted access). The visit to Ice Rock Mining’s server farm is a privilege and the company reserves the right to refuse entry of any participant at any time.
Ice Rock Mining also has several disclaimers as travelling to and walking inside the mountain is over rocky terrain, thus the company is not responsible for your health, as well as your physical condition during the excursion to the cave. Participants must have a reasonable level of physical fitness for the trip to the cave. The company is not responsible for any belongings.
Travel and accommodation costs will not be covered by Ice Rock Mining and only those serious who have invested are requested to visit. Strict security checks will be done to vet the visitors prior to entering the mountain bunker site.
With less than two weeks left the Ice Rock Mining initial coin offering is nearing its end date and the company continues to buy and install its mining rigs for its upcoming mining start.
Ice Rock Mining appears to be doing well during their capital raise selling ROCK2 tokens and is on track to begin its mining operations in July 2018. The offer to invite interested investors will allow Ice Rock Mining to showcase their bunker and the work that they have accomplished to date to interested investors. Also, the open visit provides an excellent promotional-marketing opportunity for the company.
Ice Rock Mining’s ICO ends May 25th, 2018.
