Metal detector signal under this boulder — we had to know what it was...praying
(How to Find Gold | Prospector Nic) May 26, 2025: Deep in a remote Aussie creek, Down Under, we locked onto a massive signal under the biggest boulder we’ve ever worked. The metal detector absolutely screamed — and we had to know what was down there.
We spent four hours digging, shifting heavy rock, soaked in sweat and bush grit…and when we finally got to the target — it wasn’t what we expected.
But GOLD has a funny way of testing one's patience.
This hunt proves it: If you don’t quit, the gold eventually shows itself.

SUTRA: Gold Prospectors
Translated by Dhr. Seven based on Ven. Sujata translation (AN 3.101)
“Raw [unprocessed native] gold has coarse impurities: soil, sand, gravel. A prospector or an apprentice gold panner pours it into another pan, where they wash, rinse, and clean it.
When those coarse impurities have been eliminated, there are middling impurities in the raw gold: dirt and grit.
The prospector washes it again. When those have been eliminated, there are fine impurities in the raw gold: fine black grime. The prospector washes it again. When that has been eliminated, only golden flecks remain.
A goldsmith or apprentice places the raw gold in a crucible where they heat, melt, then smelt it. Still the raw gold is not settled as the dross is not totally gone. The gold is not pliable, workable, or radiant, but rather is brittle and not yet ready to be worked.
The goldsmith keeps on heating, melting, and smelting it until the raw gold becomes pliable, workable, and radiant, no longer brittle but ready to be worked.
Then the goldsmith can successfully create any kind of ornament, bet it a bracelet, earring, necklace, or a golden garland.
In the same way, a monastic (wandering ascetic) committed to higher mind has coarse impurities (corruptions): unskillful bodily, verbal, and mental conduct. A sincere, capable monastic [in training] gives these up, gets rid of, lets go of, and eliminates them.
When they have been let go of and eliminated, there are middling impurities: thoughts of sensuality, malice, and cruelty. A sincere and capable monastic gives these up, lets go of, gets rid of, and eliminates them.
When they have been given up and eliminated, there are fine impurities: thoughts of family, country, and status. A sincere and capable monastic lets go of, gives these up, gets rid of, and eliminates them. When they have been given up and eliminated, only thoughts about the Teaching (Dharma) are left.
That absorption (immersion) is not yet peaceful or sublime, not yet tranquil or unified, but is held in place by forceful suppression [of the mental defilements].
However, there comes a time when mind is stilled internally; it settles, unifies, and becomes absorbed (immersed) in samādhi. That absorption is peaceful and sublime, tranquil and unified, not held in place by forceful suppression.
A monastic (a skillful trainee) extends the mind to realize by insight each and every thing that can be realized by insight; they are capable of realizing those things because each and every one is within range. More

With impurities eliminated, I could make $300K!
SUTRA: To the People of Venaga
(AN 3.63, Venāga Sutta) Translated by Bhikkhu Bodhi, edited by Dhr. Seven
...Then the Brahmin householders of Venāgapura approached the Blessed One [the Buddha].
Some paid homage and sat down respectfully to one side; some exchanged greetings with him and, when they had concluded their greetings and cordial talk, sat down to one side; some reverentially saluted him and sat down to one side; some pronounced their name and clan and sat down to one side; some kept silent and sat down to one side.
The Brahmin Vacchagotta of Venāgapura then said to the Blessed One:
“It is astounding and amazing, Master Gotama [the Buddha], how Master Gotama’s faculties are tranquil and the color of his skin is pure and bright. Just as a yellow jujube fruit in the autumn is pure and bright, so Master Gotama’s faculties are tranquil and the color of his skin is pure and bright.
“Just as a palm fruit that has just been removed from its stalk is pure and bright, so Master Gotama’s faculties are tranquil and the color of his skin is pure and bright.
What is more valuable, gold or self-mastery?
“Just as an ornament of finest gold, well prepared by a skilled goldsmith and very skillfully wrought in the furnace, placed on red brocade, shines and beams and radiates, so Master Gotama’s faculties are tranquil and the color of his skin is pure and bright.”
[How are his beds? They must be very nice.] “Whatever high and luxurious kinds of bedding there are — sofa, divan, long-haired coverlet, coverlet of diverse colors, white, woolen with floral designs, quilt of cotton wool, woolen coverlet ornamented with animal figures, woolen coverlet with double borders, woolen coverlet with a single border, silken sheet studded with gems, sheet made with silk threads and studded with gems, dancer’s rug, elephant rug, horse rug, chariot rug, rug of antelope hide, spread made of the hide of the kadali-deer, bed with a canopy above and red bolsters at both ends — Master Gotama surely gains them at will without trouble or difficulty.”
“Brahmin, those high and luxurious kinds of bedding are rarely obtained by those who have gone forth [into the left-home life of a wandering ascetic or shramana], and if they are obtained, they are impermissible.
“But, Brahmin, there are three kinds of high and luxurious beds that at present I gain at will, without trouble or difficulty. What are these three?
“They are the celestial high and luxurious bed, the divine high and luxurious bed, and the noble high and luxurious bed. These are the three kinds of high and luxurious beds that at present I gain at will, without trouble or difficulty.”

World's largest gold deposit found, worth over US $80 billion
(Nature) A deposit of high-quality gold ore containing around 1,000 metric tons (1,100 US tons) of the precious metal has been discovered in central China, according to Chinese state media.
Valued at approximately 600 billion yuan or U.S. 83 billion dollars, the discovery could be considered the largest and most lucrative reservoir of gold ever uncovered, surpassing the 900 metric tons estimated to lie within the mother of all gold reserves, South Deep mine in South Africa.
What kind of story suppression is this? A mere $83 billion worth of gold? There was WAY more gold or found in Uganda in 2022: 31 million tonnes of ore -- with an estimated 320,000 tonnes of extractable pure gold:
If one troy ounce is worth $2,700.00 then 320,000 tonnes, according to my handheld calculator, would today be worth $[ERROR], a number so high we have to hire a mathematician to calculate it.
How many ounces in a ton of gold? The answer is a metric tonne, which is 32,150.7 troy ounces. So multiply that by $2,7000, and then do it 319,000 more times. It equals: $86,806,890 + $27,691,397,910,000 = That, in our innumerate opinion, equals about 27 to 28 trillion dollars, yes? Or $27,778,204,800,000 to be exact. So what in the world is a mere $83 billion (from 1,100 metric tons) in China? It's not a fraction worth mentioning, except that China is good to go at extracting right now. By our calculation, 1,000 metric tons would be worth $86,806,890,000 (=1,000 x 32,150.7 x $2,700).
China is officially communist atheist. How? By not counting its 1 billion+ Buddhists.
Chinese technicians survey the gold (Xinhua)
PHOTO: Technicians of Hunan Province Geological Disaster Survey and Monitoring Institute check rock samples at the Wangu gold field in Pingjiang County, central China's Hunan Province, Nov. 5, 2024 (Xinhua/Su Xiaozhou).
The Geological Bureau of Hunan Province announced the detection of 40 gold veins within a depth of 1.2 miles (2 kms) in the northeast Hunan county of Pingjiang.
These alone were thought to contain 300 metric tons of gold, with 3D modeling suggesting additional reserves may be found to a depth of 3 kms.
The massive find was made in Pingjiang County, well within undisputed Chinese territory. "Many drilled rock cores showed visible gold," says bureau prospector Chen Rulin.
Core samples suggest every metric ton of ore could contain as much as 138 grams (nearly 5 ounces) of gold – an extraordinary level of quality considering ore excavated from underground mines is considered high grade if it contains more than 8 grams.
Wadi Faynan 16 — a 12,000-year-old ancient site you probably never heard of
Excavations of the site revealed, to the surprise of archaeologists, a dense cluster of half-buried oval structures that have been dated back to between 12,000 and 10,000 years ago.
Of all the truly ancient sites on Earth, most are familiar with Göbekli Tepe, an ancient site believed to date back about 12,000 years, located in present-day Anatolia (Turkey, the Fertile Crescent).
Why is Turkey so important with so many extraordinary things like Noah's Ark or Sumerian Ark of Atra-Hasis, from the Epic of Gilgamesh, or the underground worlds of caves, corridors, and caverns carved into rock where tens of thousands survived cataclysms, the oldest human body in...
The archeological site is unprecedented for more reasons than one, but primarily because of its complexity and size. Although Gobekli Tepe was discovered more than three decades ago, we have only managed to excavate only around 5% of the entire complex.
[And as reported by Bright Insight's Jimmy Corsetti, that will not be continuing so we will not be shown any more than we have already seen of this extraordinary site, by no means the oldest. The pyramids in Mexico, which includes the largest (Cholula), the Americas, Egypt (the most famous), Syria (the largest number and the least known), the staggeringly large ones in Bosnia and Indonesia, China and Antarctica, Mars and elsewhere.]
But this isn’t about Göbekli Tepe. It is about an ancient site also discovered almost three decades ago, dating back to around 12,000 years ago. Unlike Göbekli Tepe’s catchy name, this site is known as WF16 or Wadi Faynan 16.
The 12,000-year-old ancient site you probably never heard about
In 1996, archeologists stumbled across the site when they identified flint tools and large stone mortars on the surface of a knoll.
The site is located in present-day Jordan, not far from a steep climb to the Jordanian Plateau. Its importance resides in the fact that it is home to some of the most ancient development of the Neolithic, featuring a clear separation from hunting and gathering food to the production of food [farming], a sedentary lifestyle, and a community.
Excavations eventually revealed numerous workshops, houses, and public spaces for communal activities such as religious or ceremonial rites.
Dense cluster of semi-subterranean structures
Excavations of the site revealed, to the surprise of archaeologists, a dense cluster of half-buried oval structures which have been dated back to between 12,000 and 10,000 years ago. The site is believed to have reached its peak around 11,200 years ago.
The structures were intricately covered with a mud and plant mixture, which helped keep the structures firmly in place. This material was used for the walls that supported flat wooden roofs and other buildings at the site.
The structures at WF16 vary in size, suggesting specific uses for each building. Some were used for domestic activities and others for storage and workshops. But one structure stands out. It is perhaps one of the first amphitheater-like structures ever found. More: Wadi Faynan 16
Who in the world could believe in actual giants o other than these historical ones?
Are space aliens real? Yes. Have they visited earth? yes. Have they interacted with humans? Yes. How can we know for sure? Never-before-seen footage shows artifacts discovered and excavated in Mexico.
These extraordinary objects show that such beings are real, have been here, and have a history of human interaction. The pyramids, for example, are their creations, not ours.
Mexico is full of wonders like cenotes.
Because this evidence is unbelievable, the team excavating it has filmed each shovel of dirt emptied, each root cut, and each artifact unearthed in real-time from the excavation site, with some digs reaching down 8-feet.
This is mindboggling footage of the height, depth, and width of filming, showing every detail and action. This is full transparency, no smoke or mirrors, no trick photography, just raw footage from both of GenSix’s expeditions in Mexico.
But giants aren't real, are they? Andre, Cali trees...
Viewed on screen is the unpretentious exploration and discovery of ancient artifacts that display the Mesoamerican people’s interaction with extraterrestrials from empires that flourished hundreds of years ago, thousands of years ago, and from pre-Adamic times.
Stephen Quayle organizes events
Depicted on camera are ancient artifacts showing hybrid and/or interdimensional beings, "fallen angels," who are masquerading as space aliens and ancient Egyptian gods.
It's a matter of seed
Steve Quayle is an extreme Christian, a man who imagines his God is directing him to expose biblical truths. These alien artifacts are not artifacts of ETs as we imagine.
To Quayle and his colleagues what this material suggests is that the world is being "reinfested with fallen angels" (beings from space). His biblical reference is Genesis 6, which speaks of an encounter when such beings return at the end of an age.
Finding double helixes (the characteristic design of DNA) on several artifacts indicates the genetic manipulation of ancient peoples by these fallen angels or Nephilim. This will be revisited on modern humans in this era.
Marker for the end of the age
This production reveals ancient evidence to help viewers prepare for the end of the age. Humankind is being set up for a "Great Deception" that will tell humanity that space aliens, fallen angels, were our creators.
These artifacts expose the interaction ancient Egyptians (in the American Southwest and Egypt) and Mexicans (Toltecs, Aztecs, and Mayans) that point to the genetic corruption of ancient humankind. What took place in the past suggests the resumption of that corruption on unsuspecting modern humans.
“Why are our findings in Mesoamerica relevant?” Quayle asks. “It's critical to understand the genetic manipulation that occurred in ancient times, which is also occurring now in our modern times.
“In our ‘shovel by shovel’ excavations, we expose the truth about Fallen Angel corruption on an unsuspecting humanity.” This is an explosive 4-hour exposé.
Archaeologists working in the ancient town of Spello, Italy, uncovered a remarkable discovery during their recent excavation efforts. What they unearthed was an ancient pagan temple dating to the Roman period.
[Was it dedicated not to Jesus Christ but to the worship of Mithra(the pre-Christian "Messiah" or Buddhist "Maitreya" figure from the Sanskrit root maitri = Avestan, Zoroastrian, Old Persian, Aryan, Iranian Mitra, the star of Mithrianity), who preceded Jesus as the superstar of the Vatican grounds in the Holy See at the heart of the Holy Roman Empire, which left many such underground worship sites all over England? No, it was something else: the blending of paganism and Christianity, not replacement but fusion and syncretism.]
They believe that the building was constructed during the reign of Emperor Constantine, Rome’s ruler from 306 to 337 C.E.
Who was Constantine?
I'm a white European (Italian), so I want a white savior. Turn that Black Nazarene Jew white.
.
Forged (Prof. of Religion Bart D. Ehrman)
Constantine I, or Constantine the Great, was a Roman emperor who ruled in the first third of the 4th century C.E.
He is remembered for his leadership during a major time of transition in the Roman Empire, as well as for moving the capital of the empire to Byzantium, later rechristened "Constantinople" in his honor.
But he is perhaps best known as the first Roman emperor to convert to [and force others by the sword to convert to] Christianity.
The Roman pagans

Although Black, we need Jesus to be white!
The Roman Empire was a thoroughly pagan institution from its inception. The Romans worshipped many gods and supernatural beings who were generally linked to the natural world in some way.
Christianity, though now a major world religion, was a peculiar phenomenon for the Romans, and the early Christians were heavily persecuted.
When Emperor Constantine converted, however, the Roman Empire gradually adopted more and more elements of Christianity [renaming its pagan celebrations and holy days. At least, that’s how the popular story goes.
Emperor Constantine did NOT make Christianity the official religion of Rome
There’s a popular narrative that neatly condenses history by saying that Constantine changed the official religion of Rome to Christianity.
However, the new archeological findings at Spello attest to the fact that this is an inaccurate version of reality.
Researchers stated in a press release that the uncovered temple “shows the continuities between the classical pagan world and early Christian Roman world that often get blurred out or written out of the sweeping historical narratives.”
The inspiration for the archeological dig
Scholarly teachers can't beat blind "faith"!
The decision to begin an excavation at the site in Spello was sparked by an ancient inscription that hangs in the town hall.
The inscription was originally recovered in the 1700s. It states, in language directed to the townspeople of its time, that the creation of the temple constituted a massive undertaking.
What intrigued researchers was that it also grants the town inhabitants the ability to celebrate a religious festival in Spello instead of making a long journey elsewhere.
The inscription, however, contains a condition for townsfolk who wished to celebrate the religious festival within Spello.
Emperor Constantine stipulated that the citizens must build a temple dedicated to his ancestral worship. Specifically, the temple would serve as a place for worship of the Flavian family [the very family/dynasty of Caesar, as Joseph Atwill revealed to the world in Caesar's Messiah, a psyops plot to INVENT JESUS and trick an induce everyone in the Roman Empire to convert to this new state-friendly faith], Constantine’s own predecessors.
