Lost Gold and Silver Between Escalante and Boulder, Colorado - An Early 18th Century Mexican Mystery of Buried Precious Religious Relics

Image
The Mexican War of Independence began on September 16, 1810, and it continued until September 27, 1821. In the beginning, a Spanish mission in Mexico became the target of native Mexican attacks. A secret which unfortunately raises its ugly head too often, the top priest turned out to be less godly than local folks thought. With little regard to the parishioners, he salivated for gold, silver, and wealth of all sorts. To top that, he was in possession of a mine in the north. The 'NORTH" in this case meant Utah. Mexican miners were savagely put to work in the mines digging for the precious metals. Conditions were deplorable. You take your pick of the conditions that were there. No safety resulting in accidents, cheated of their pay, and all of the products went into the priest's pocket. As soon as the revolution started, there was no indecision about whom to the native Mexicans wanted to be rid of first.  Unlike many cheats and scoundrels, the priest did not save nuggets. He...

  https://pixabay.com/users/rezaaskarii-18404671/ Of course, Sweden is east of Norway. It is the largest country of Northern Europe, and its beautiful mountain and ocean scenery would lead one to believe it is rich in natural resources. One thinking that would not be wrong. It is one of the wealthiest mining countries of Europe, and the Swedes have been digging minerals out of the ground for 6000 years. Many of the buildings in Sweden have wall coatings in churches and castles due to copper. The Falun copper mine in Dalarna is rich with the pigment. The mine goes back to 1300. It has accounted for two-thirds of the entire continent's copper. That's a lot! Iron ore, accounting for a whopping 92% of total production, comes from Sweden.  The north boasts 16 mines. Vasterbotten was the site of the first gold discovery. Boliden Mineral AG owns 6 of Sweden's mines. The Boliden Mine, which is no longer operating, was once Europe's biggest and richest gold mine.

Scandinavian Gold Mining - Norway First - Look for Sweden and Finland in Days to Come

Image
There is so much to love about Scandinavia. Enjoying cold weather sports, good fishing, and extremely well-educated people. What more could you ask for? Well, how about this. Dare I say, what most people don't realize is that these countries possess great mineral wealth.  What's Norway Got? If you look at almost any photograph of Norway, you see sheer rock cliffs and mountains to the sea. Eidsvold, a city in Akerhus county, was the location of the first gold mine established in 1758.  A copper mine not far away showed sulfide gold. Ole Viborg copper mine originally tipped miners off to the possibility of area gold. That gold was mixed in pyrite and quartz veins. Later, Bomlo, Telemark, and Bindal revealed their gold treasure. As is the case in many of the United States, the gold was a secondary gain after copper, lead and zinc were primarily mined for. However, in Finnmark, a far northern municipality, Acerhus is the home of Biddjovagge Gold and Copper Mine. In 1970, the mine...

Buried Treasure (Gold and Silver) in the Unita Mountains, Utah

Image
                                                                                                Uinta Peak Utah lore is full of urban legends, myths & folklore. Spanish Jesuit priests established The Josephine Mine in the Uinta Mountains in 1650. They mined rich veins of both silver and gold for a very long time prior to leaving the mine in 1680. The clerics were ready to flaunt the gleaming stuff they pulled starting from the earliest stage, they were undeniably less hesitant to impart the area of their mine to local people. The Jesuits, following the appropriate convention since they were ministers and not outlaws, announced their mine to the Lord of Spain. Records composed by the Spanish Jesuits demonstrate an expected worth of the silver and g...
