It's quite close to the US, is not it?
Maybe an old missile site ?

Travel there would clearly be a challenge, if you could even get there to begin with. There are no roads, no infrastructure at all and rivers, bogs and tundra everywhere.

Now, I’ve read the many explanations about why this place in Chukotka is the anomaly that it is. Dropped satellite pixels and mismatched image overlap seem to be the most plausible theories…but on every available satellite known to man (American, Russian, Chinese, Japanese and even Israeli)?

Or being so close to a silver gold mine I could see it being something like that. In Tom Clancy's book "The Bear and the Dragon" I seem to recall the NSA listening for key words involving oil/gold/silver etc...and them picking up that Russia had found the mother load and was keeping it quiet. I could see that really happening. Protecting resources and keeping them hidden.
If there truly is something to this whole mystery, I am inclined to think it may be something along these lines. The area is indeed very mineral rich. This is a known fact. If they've found a resource which has the potential to de-stabilize the world economy it would be in the best interests of many countries to not allow this discovery to be known, hence the blackout on numerous satellites from different countries.
Putting my tinfoil hat on for just a second, the story might go something like this...(hypothetically and exaggerated for emphasis) Russia discovers what amounts to a Mt. Everest of solid gold. If the gold were ever to make it to the economic markets entire empires would crumble overnight with the value of gold tumbling to near zero. Consequently, other countries like the US and China train their nuclear weapons on this location with the threat that if the Russians ever so much as even touch it they'll make it radioactive for 25,000 years.
Now if that isn't a good conspiracy theory, I don't know what is! (taking tinfoil hat off now).

Question: If it truly is some sort of a military installation (old / new) why would it be obscured when vitrually all Russian nuclear submarine bases are in full view with high resolution images of boomers tied up in their moorings? Same goes for numerous Russian ICBM sites that you can find in hi-res all over Russia on Google maps? Nuclear research facilities, Russian area 51 like test centers, chemical weapon storage facilities...all in plain view.
Why would this one area be obscured when you can plainly look at all that other stuff?
