Oh man... Now you bring magicians and magic to the equation... Please don't do. Not here.

On the other hand, if we take the video at face value, then there is the question of how the Mineoro device could detect such a tiny target
|
About 3 years ago, Alonso was inside an abandoned mine. He was testing the FG80 at the time. Then he had a beep. Actually from close range. He marked the target as being 7 feet down. After getting certain of the exact spot and not risking loosing the ionic emanation anymore, he turned the best MD at the time for nuggets on to see if it could detect it. Of course he could not.
People started to dig. Found a 2 gram gold nugget (sorry, I can be wrong about the exact gramature, but it was something close to that).
Unfortunately he brought no video camera with him. For this Damasio wrote in the site later that the FG reached a depth for this nugget, no other MD could.
Next.

It supposedly uses "ionic fields" to detect longtime buried gold, and that these fields are severely depressed in damp conditions. Here we see in the video that the treasure is buried below the water line.
|
What about it? I already stated thousands of times the device detects sunken gold in the sea.

It has been repeatedly claimed that the Mineoro devices can only detect large targets, but here (if the video is to be believed) we see a very small target recovered from a great depth.

That's incorrect. It has been claimed only by Morgan, that
in his opinion his DC2008 can only consistently detect larger objects. Altough larger masses can undoubtely be detected from larger distances and more easily, there is no problem for small objects, as long as conditions and amount of time buried help as in the video.

After watching the video a few times I have to say that it's not very convincing. There also appears to be far too much excitement amongst the participants, as if this whole thing is staged. Why would everyone be so amazed to find the gold pendant if this is such a common everyday occurrence? Perhaps it's just the sea air, of Brazilians are naturally excitable people?
Whatever ... it was quite entertaining.

I know that a video like this will always raise the most different questions, doubts and non beliefs. I see that It has been edited but only to pertrain and to keep focus in the object of the case.
So I have no coments on what you might or not believe. This is not important. A fact is a fact.
What surprised me a bit, is that it seems that the weather was not all sunshiny as I see not many curious people around. When Mineoro usually do these recoveries at the beach in sunny days, hundreds of curious people gather around to watch.
