wonder if this will get through the courts, before the treasure is recovered
there is a video in Spanish my Spanish is limited, so don't get most of it

U.S. company Glocca Morra is suing, for 10 bil$,half of the 20bil estimated value
In 1981, U.S. company Glocca Morra said it located the San José and handed over the coordinates to Colombian authorities
in exchange for half the treasure upon retrieval. Then, in 2015, the Colombian government announced that it independently
discovered San José at a different location.

At the same time, Spain, Colombia, and Bolivia’s indigenous Qhara Qhara community are arguing the treasure is rightfully
theirs as the Spanish forced them to mine the precious metals.


This ‘Holy Grail’ Shipwreck Off Columbia Could Hold an Epic Treasure Worth $20 Billion. Now It’s Being Recovered.
Colombia's president Gustavo Petro wants the "San José," which was sunk by the British in 1708, to be brought to the surface before 2026.

I don't need to understand a word of it to see the treasure. That's an incredible find.
