I've done this location before. I got a new image that should have a lot of information on it. At least three things stand out to me as significant. I would like other opinions.

Is this still in the Book Cliff mountains? Maybe travel route or overhang for shelter. Ancestral Puebloans may have liked this site also.

The Ancestral Puebloans, also known as the Anasazi, were an ancient Native American culture that spanned the present-day Four Corners region of the United States, comprising southeastern Utah, northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico, and southwestern Colorado. They are believed to have developed from the Oshara tradition and were maize agriculturalists who lived across the northern Southwest.

Stepping rock, is it natural or man-made? In the lower area below overhang, keep picking up both metallic relics and a few non-metallic targets.

I was getting a small hit for crude oil, so had to do some research here. Yes, there is treasure, a fortune to be made from rocks called oil shale.

Oil Shale Resources​

The Book Cliffs are part of a broader geological area that includes significant oil shale deposits, particularly associated with the Green River Formation. This formation is estimated to hold between 500 billion to 1.1 trillion barrels of recoverable shale oil resources across Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming

. While the Book Cliffs themselves may not be the primary focus for conventional crude oil extraction, they are situated near these rich oil shale deposits.

All of the above. I believe there's a cache here. Likely Spanish.

Got a hit for something Spanish close to right edge of photo.
