Oak Island Researchers Encounterd BIG Trouble During The Money Pit Excavation!!

Hi, this is the, uh, button that we had. I actually was able to expose at least that much, but it’s so heavily corroded, that’s all that’s available.

It is a stamped design on the front, it has a raised foot on the back, and if you look where the silver laminate is broken, that implies what you might call a mold seam.

And if you add those things up with the Noel H, the Oak Island team almost loses everything to an ancient foe: the temptation of finding the long-lost treasure of Oak Island, said to be a treasure chest filled with gold from centuries ago.

The Lagina Brothers encountered big trouble during The Money Pit excavation. They have collected data that created theories that can shock the entire world. Let’s see what really happened.

The Oak Island crew gathered together to talk about the horizontal drills they had set up next to the shaft. They are planning for the next part of their day — to take these drills to the shaft bottom.

They are taking their time to lower the drills down there and get their equipment set up for this upcoming excavation. They want to start to probe drill right at the bottom of the shaft as soon as that afternoon.

Rick Lagina and his friend Scott Barlow are meeting with Paul Coté, who is part of the Dumas Contracting crew and will be overseeing this latest probe drilling operation at the base of the garden shaft.

This latest probe drilling could be the thing that finally solves the 229-year-old treasure mystery.

Rick lets both gentlemen know that his priority is to drill the tunnel. Three weeks ago, the crew worked on extending the garden shaft — originally built in the 18th century — down to a depth of around 100 feet.

The team was excited to reach a new depth that allowed them to take a closer look at a wood tunnel that they believe could have been built in the 17th century, meaning it could predate the garden shaft.

This tunnel is likely from a previous core drilling operation and has been tracked westward into the zone that they call the “baby blob.”

Big day here, Scott. This horizontal drill program is going to be very important to us.

Mystery number one: no tops and no sides of the tunnel. Did somebody remove them? Why? Did somebody do it intentionally?

The baby blob has been water tested and revealed to contain high traces of gold and silver between 80 and 120 feet below ground.

One issue that has cropped up as they study this 17th-century tunnel is the stunning discovery that the section of the tunnel they uncovered beneath the garden shaft has been partially dismantled sometime in the past.

“See what’s down there, mate.”

“All right, extend it a little bit.”

They noticed immediately that they could not find any signs of walls or a ceiling. This could mean any number of things — for better or worse.

Back in the present day, Scott lets Paul Coté, the supervisor for the Dumas Contracting team, know that this drilling operation is very important to him and the rest of the Oak Island crew. Paul acknowledges this and agrees with Scott.

The current plan, now that they have managed to extend the garden shaft to a depth of 106 feet, is to take place in stages over the course of a few days.

Representatives from Dumas Contracting Ltd. will execute a probe drilling operation to look for sections of the tunnel that may still be preserved.

This tunnel has given the men hope that they have finally found the location of the Oak Island Treasure — said to be hidden somewhere on the island but never yet found after hundreds of years and countless explorers.

Marty Lagina views this 17th-century tunnel and its missing walls and ceiling as a mystery within a greater mystery.

The clues are piling up. Marty notes that this tunnel has no tops or sides. He asks himself, and anyone watching, how this is possible. Who took the sides and top of the tunnel, and why?

He wonders whether someone had them removed intentionally to cause a collapse — and if so, why?

Marty does not allow himself to lose sight of the overarching goal: to find the missing treasure.

He also notes that a collapse would be a good way to conceal and hide something — which suggests the treasure could be inside this collapsed tunnel.
