Have a read.
The metal detector was getting a reading 40 feet down??
I fear it won’t be over til we hit the earth’s core.Wake me up when this is over .......
Sometimes a rock....
I for one would like to know for sure what is down there, win/win
When there is a triangular arrangement on the ground and there is a stone in the shape of a triangle and a guide under the ground, it cannot be easily passed. In addition, most of the discovered treasures started from a possibility and were discovered with many trials and errors. So every possibility should be considered. In addition, the best signs and indicators are (stones).
Including the possibility that it's just a rock and doesn't mean anything.
The best signs and indicators are visible, not forty feet underground.
metal detecting something that is 40 foot underground seems a bit of a stretch.
So? The principle still holds that if you're going to leave a marker for something, you're going to want the marker to be visible, not buried deeply underground. It does no good to leave a marker if you'll never be able to find the marker. And that is true no matter what weather or soil or part of the world you're talking about. An invisible marker is the same as no marker at all.
I don't expect anything other than simple logic. I never suggested that a signboard was left -- the OP did when he said there was a red tree. That is the only sign that was visible. Then he said they used a metal detector/locator and found three places where metal was detected, and that these three places formed a triangle with the tree. He then said they dug 40 feet and found the triangular rock. So far that is the entirety of what we've been told are the signs that there is treasure buried here at great depth.
This is true!
Once again, context, context, context. Without knowing what type of trees, we can’t determine. And I’m not arguing. I’m merely pointing out that there’s a lot of facts that you need to know before you start, digging 30, or forty foot down in the ground.
I will update you all. This will be the last week of our digging.I don't expect anything other than simple logic.

To my thinking, it doesn't matter if that tree is two weeks or two millennia old, it's just a tree. Without further information, it's just a tree. Something made the OP decide to metal detect, and somehow from three hits, he's decided that digging dozens of feet into the earth is warranted. I see absolutely no reason to believe that, and the triangle rock doesn't add anything at all to the reasons for digging. We weren't even told if they actually found any metal (of any kind) at any of the three supposed hits.
People can do what they want, and dig what they want. I'm just trying to save the OP a huge amount of labor when so far there is ZERO evidence for anything that far down worth digging for. Maybe he knows something he's not sharing, or maybe he's just messing with us to see how much time we waste arguing about it. At this point I'm leaning toward the latter.
At any rate, I'm done.
To the OP, if you dig up a box of gold bars, feel free to say "I told you so."
