Mine in deep waters? Career sudden end:(

I was near british east coast, quiet far from land, depth under keel 102 meters. I ordered sub to go 25 meters and on the way there was loud bang like hitting the bottom. I wondered, wth!, rushed to repair screen and, oh horrors, total devastation of bow, major flooding!. Sub did soon hit the bottom and despite all efforts to pump water out and blow ballast the grave of my crew and my career (6th patrol) is now there...

Problem is, i don't know what happened? Mine?

And if it was mine how do i avoid them? Is there any chart of mined areas?
