Signal I got bottom right in hole, seems to be about 30 feet down.

At least that is where hit stops, nothing deeper.

I checked for dinosaur bones (because of depth) more likely some form of gold, If you know placer gold is there, probably will be in right side of hole. If a gold treasure, rather deep for digging a hole.

Yeah, it's impossible to dig that depth but it's a pretty cool that something is in that depth. Anyways the hole will be dug a little more just to clear things up. Have a nice day!

You might check the sides of hole first, make sure not any loose coins or artifacts. On depth stopping 29-30 ft only means nothing below that point. If it turned out to be loose objects or native gold in hole side, depth then could vary (above the depth point). If nothing was in the sides and there was a gold cache at the bottom, I would expect it to be that depth.

I think it probably is some type of mineral in right side of hole.

Check your dirt with a coin type metal detector. I'll bet what you dowsed was in the surface layer.

In next few days i will go again to that place. I will check with metal detector now more precisely surface, on the holes and downstairs i am getting nothing with metal detector. Its pretty weird for me that i get nothing because until now i was never wrong about gold, but there is a first time for everything. Anyways, i will come back here with results.

Gold can be small as a coin/jewelry, it can hide in quartz rock (in the natural form). People have used caves/tunnels for hiding gold treasure (but don't get any hits on that either).

I can see now your hole goes down deeper on the right side. Didn't notice that before, is also where signal was found. Going to have a check more again... you must be down close to 15 ft on right side. Yet, still seems more like something with the soil.

on the holes and downstairs i am getting nothing with metal detector.

Indigenous layer of dirt, maybe you hit a grid line for a marker? Marker would be off a certain distance, possibly from top above hole.

Yes, digging holes for treasure is weird alright (just ask any archaeologists).

The discussion from afar about what’s in the hole based on a photo is weird to me. I‘m I not free to express this? I’m not insulting you or anyone else in the thread. Carry on.

Yes, right side on the picture was about 4.5ft, now is 5.5ft.
I didnt go yet to the place to check again, cant find a free time.
