Brousseau explained that it was likely what’s known as rose gold, which was often used to create rose-colored jewelry, particularly in 19th century Russia. Within that piece, they found gold at about 65 percent, copper at approximately 26 percent, and a small amount of silver. But as a few more tense moments passed by, he eventually came up with the goods and found some actual proper gold! Yang then upped the tension by identifying some pyrite, aka fool’s gold. The first bit of news revealed an absence of manganese in the iron, which dated the piece to before the 1840s.
Xiang Yang, fed the piece into a scanning electron microscope, which uses a beam of electrons to magnify the metal’s features to get a clearer picture of its chemical composition. Marty left Brousseau and us viewers in doubt as to how important these results would be he said, “What happens here today influences what we do for the rest of the year.”īrousseau’s colleague, Dr. Metal composition determined Oak Island team’s focus for the year
Christa Brousseau at her laboratory in Nova Scotia’s St. With that in mind, Marty Lagina, Craig Tester, and treasure hunting veteran Dan Henskee took the mysterious piece of metal to expert chemist Dr. This obviously caused great excitement and led to the team wanting to find out more. The guys put it into their new XRF machine, which suggested it contained some gold. The metal piece in question was found a week ago at a depth of approximately 90 feet in the D-2 borehole in the Money Pit area. of Communities, Culture, and Heritage ordered them to shut down operations in the swamp area (follow the link to read about that situation.) However, there were also many positives to last night’s show, and one of those centered around a small piece of metal. Last night’s episode was difficult to watch in some places as, much to the team’s frustration, Nova Scotia’s Dept. On this week’s The Curse of Oak Island, the team had a piece of gold found at the money pit analyzed by chemists at a laboratory, and the results were very promising.
