Realde,
This is the typical treasure scenario...
ex: you have a treasure map or treasure lead..... that says that treasure is buried underneath a tree/rock marker...a drum or table size concrete vault. Therefore your search area is withen the vicinity of the tree/rock marker. If you are fortunate to have it scanned thru geophysical instrument...at least you have now a confined target area in few square feet (ex: 5 feet by 5 feet) or more...
Then conduct borehole drill...if you have low budget, use water drill. If you have big budget, use bulky mining drill...once you hit the drum or concrete portion....be alert of possible gold flakes or small pieces eaten by drill bit...once confirmed...BINGO...YOU HAVE A GOOD TREASURE SITE....DIG, DIG, DIG.
Angel_09,
Yes we DID....we used an old big borehole drill....use in mining.
In 1998, Davao, we operated a Japs treasure tunnel, since the land owner had a treasure map, we easily pinpointed the exact location target treasure chamber. After aprox. 30 feet...the borehole drill hit the concrete vault...and later on the dill bit had eaten.....ONE KILO OF GOLD FLAKES !!!
The owner halted the drilling operation bcoz he sold the one kilo gold flakes (we receive a few thousand pesos share). After he sold the gold flakes....he had endless alibis not to continue the digging operation bcoz alleged some men are sorrounding his site...its rainy season, etc all endless alibis he could give to us...IN OTHER WORDS, HE BECAME GREEDY BCOZ HE KNEW HIS SITE IS 100% confirmed....he just made lots of alibis to get rid of us. We can't do anything he is the landowner anyway and he is the one who financed it, we are just treasure hunter/consultant and helpers. Later on we heard that he conducted his own digging and became rich.
Lesson learned:
1) Using drilling method first, instead of useless digging is effective and cheaper.
2) Once GOLD is exposed...it can turn ordinary men into GREEDY
