Part of the mountain was simply vaporized:
The initial satellite pictures of Iran’s Fordow nuclear enrichment site reveal that a section of the mountain shielding the facility was destroyed by US bunker buster bomb attacks on Saturday.
The images captured by Maxar Technologies display potential bomb impact areas and debris following the unexpected B-2 stealth bomber raid ordered by President Trump overnight.
Sections of the formerly brown mountainside now appear gray, indicating significant alteration to the landscape due to the explosion caused by the deployment of 14 30,000-pound Massive Ordinance Penetrator (MOP) bombs.
If you look closely, you can see holes in the ground where presumably the bombs burrowed their way in before fully detonating:

As many as 12 (reports vary) of these massive bombs were used, and you can see again in this picture right where they apparently went in:

Six missile entry points are clearly visible. Twelve GBU-57 bombs in total were dropped on this site. The entry points are right above the main centrifuge halls (not the entrances, as was earlier reported). pic.twitter.com/bQOD8JhYPH
