2005 EXPEDITION: YAMASH-I-T-A ( JAPS) TREASURE
Badger Bart,
We have never had successfu recovery this year, we still lack equipment and budget for our team for full blown exploration or maybe recovery operation. What we did thou is just to send my partner Richie (cliffhanger/ming forum) to the area and tried to monitor the latest updates of the natives....as usual they are still insisting us to accompany them to their treasure caves, to verify those black bricks stockfile (maybe covered with asphalt), some budhas and other sites. These natives have already phobias in going inside the treasure caves, bcoz one died in trying to lift 3 feet budha, the other one died also picking up a gold bar from the stockfiles, another suffered blisters on his hands when he scoop the preciuos stones on a table inside the treasure caves,some found a coconut body size...snake lying near the stockfile..
According to our japs consultant, its more dangerous if you see open cave gold stockfile, bcoz there are some hidden traps like grenade/bombs attach to bars/budhas, cyanide/poison laced gold bars/stones, breakable glass poison gas,poisonous snakes....thats why these natives have learned their deadly lesson well, and they need our professional help also.
Of course, we monitored also that some natives have sold a few gold bars at $100-1000 per 6 kg gold bars, maybe they have found less dangerous treasure caves...thats why our team are very much eager to find our own TREASURE CAVES....but lack of equipment and budget hamper our progress.
I've tried to email to ipvnews (treasure hunters) our treasure project studies...but. i can't go thru, always failure notice from yahoo, maybe you can help me on that. I'll just email you my message to them..
Merxx,
Correction pls. I have NOT YET SEEN TREASURE STOCKFILE, but i was once part of the 7 man team accompanied our old folks who took picture of the treasure stockfile in Penablanca cave in 1982 (i was still in highschool)...The team demolition man is the one who open the secret rock door and took the picture inside of the gold stockfile They just let me sit outside the cave. What i saw was the pictures of 3 gold stockfiles , chest high., it was covered with canvass...it was later burned, bcoz of our residence twice raided by military to gather proofs...when our old folk died, we came back to the treasure cave in 1997, it is already very much risky to explore/recover bcoz the whole barrio are guarding the cave....only solution is to buy the land area which include the treasure cave....
My treasure partner Richie, is the one who personally enter treasure cave in Mindanao, during buy/sell transaction. he was blidfolded for 6 hours and herded into cave with waterfalls entrance. he saw 4 chamber. 2 chamber are gold stockfiles, the other 2 chambers are boxes...the seller let him open one box and he pick up 4 cambodia 6 kg gold bars. When buy/sell transaction is over, he can't remember the exact place.
I do have seen personally a few gold bar during buy/sell transaction...but what i wanted is to relocate ...OUR OWN TREASURE CHAMBER...
Maybe with the help/donation of yamashita enthusiast out there...
Wayne,
Although right now, some of our treasure caves are in the jungle....we have negotiated some treasure cave sites....just a few hours from us....thats why in case of emergency or anybody who challenge us for the "QUICKEST TO RECOVER TREASURE/ TO PRODUCE ONE GOLD BAR", it just a phone call away and a few bucks to nego the cave owner, to let us take pictures of their treasure cave....but this is not our priority bcoz this is somebody else treasure cave...

...we have to look for our own cave.....thats why NOT ALL BIG VOLUME TREASURE SITES ARE BURIED,DEEP, DIFFICULT AND LADEN WITH BOOBY TRAPS....some are just beyond the backyard ordinary shallow well as entrance to tunnel treasure..
