    just out of curiosity, would a nuke blow up most of the mines? like 90% or more?

    maybe it’s hard to know, but this is just a thought experiment

      Depends on the size of the area you’re considering. In some area, one nuke would blow up 100% of the mines. But in some other, larger, area, it would only blow up 50%.

      But to be fair, using nukes to clear mines is probably one of the least effective methods considering all the collateral damage on villages, fields and nature.
