The Novaja Sibir was a 3816brt Russian cargo vessel built in 1955. She ran aground and broke up in February 1959. Most of the wreckage has been taken away, but the remains of the salvage operation can clearly be seen on the rocks above the wreck site, and no doubt plenty of material will be found underwater.
