hi to all..
hope someone could help us, by giving some helpful information on our digging here in Mindanao island, Philippines.

A family friend offer his gold finder or detector.. it is a battery operated instrument with a half meter antenna or a sensing device that it moves in circles whenever it sense a gold bullion in a certain area, as what the owner of the detector claimed. i searched the internet, but i cannot find the same instrument as his. i would just like to ask some hints if this intrument is reliable.

Using his Circling Antenna detector, we spotted 5 spots in our private area near the beach. the area have Caves, and is very far from civilization or only a few people live in the area. We chose one spot, the area that gives the smallest detection or movement of the detector. Using the detector, it encircles the area, and we manage to scale it. a 1 meter by 1 meter area.

we are now digging the area for 2 months now and is estimated to be 32 ft deep. at 8 ft, we are on the water level. we have encountered Big Brain corals being cut and cemented (around 2-4 ft), the cement used is white cement because a white powder will stick to the workers body, and shirt everytime they dried up.  we are digging Head-on to the detected area. And right now, we are digging a cemented rock and it is around 11 ft deep, and no other barriers have seen.

I would just like to ask,
1. how deep a treasure cache is usually buried by the Japanese Armies during WWII, for small deposits?
2. is the Japanese WWII Treasure cache covered up with solid cement or with stones  or sand?


at 25 feet deep, we try to use the detector at the bottom of the site, and the stronger it moves and circles.
 
Water pump, Ropes, and industrial fan are our instruments that keep my men on the GO.

Thank You Very Much

I am with Bomber on this there was no reason to bury it at 32ft treasure is buried to hide it to recovered later. 32ft would make for a slow recovery. I do not see that happening

The word is Japanese please stop being disrespectful. And I have bought cars,boats, and houses by treasure hunting and never dug a 32ft hole. Got to go get a new lazy boy this armchair is history, For your info. I have been working with a group in your county for some time now and when I asked about you all they did was laugh.
