You can call Mike Huntley a paid actor if you like, but either Mike may have found something of interest, or maybe the Mulan testing did. More of those so-called paid actors arrived this morning. Two identical flatbeds from Dumas Mining crossed the causeway to Oak Island. The same load on each flatbed but the tie downs differ in the photos. Dumas is one of the top mine infrastructures and mine development firms in Canada. (dumasmining.com). I think it is getting interesting now. Less important, Gary Drayton is here today.

The fictional show has had 100’s of actors over the years. Why would they stop now?

The 200+ year old hoax continues…

Arriving on Oak Island this morning (Thursday June 9th) was two more mobile offices, another container, and a generator. Dumas Mining is gearing up to retrieve the treasure. 8-)

AMAZING.... Cannot wait to see that!

What will we have:

The stolen wealth of the Knights Templar
The Stolen wealth of the Aztecs
The Stolen wealth of Captain Kid
The Stolen wealth of the British army
Shakespeare's stolen original manuscripts
The Stolen Jewels of the French Royal family

I wonder if the Laginas will return the treasure back to the rightful owners or will the Canadian Government just steal it for themselves...

BUT will it be more valuable than all the AMAZING treasure finds they have found in the last 9 years..

I'm going to be just as surprised as everyone else if there is a buried treasure to be found on Oak Island, especially one that is 80' or more below ground. It is possible that they do find something as treasures big and small are everywhere. I am leaning more toward a natural mineral or metal deposit on the Island than a buried treasure. Dumas Mining isn't on the Island to be a one show actor and I'm guessing there is some serious cost involved in the planned operation. Curse of Oak Island hasn't been renewed for season 10 yet and that will depend on the film they shoot. If the show doesn't get renewed the brothers will be picking up the tab, so there must be a good reason for Dumas to be on the Island.

I'm not pro or con on the treasure existing, just posting some updates about things that are happening.
Attaching photos taken from a boat trip around Oak Island yesterday - Friday, June 10th.

The island has been dug to much greater depths than 80 feet with nothing found.

Just as with the equipment company the fictional show has been using for years, it will become an advertising vehicle for dumas mining as well.

Evedently you have'nt been watching..They have un-Earthed Large Timbered Structures behind the Coffer Dam,8Ft below the Waterline. in the Cove.
Those common structures associated with shipping were found long before the laginas started their fictional show.

Research is your friend....

I don't see the show as either fiction or a hoax. The brothers didn't invent the Oak Island Treasure story and like other Treasure Legends the treasure may exist unless someone has 100% proof that it doesn't, and gibberish isn't 100% proof. The brothers never promised a treasure, they promised to keep searching as long as both felt the need to continue.

There is a thread here for posting factual/documented evidence of whether a money pit or treasure ever existed.

With 200 years of digging having taken place, no one has been able to post a single piece of evidence that a money pit or treasure ever existed.

200 years and not one piece of evidence……that’s what we call a, “clue”.

All Items found on the fictional tv show are debris from common human habitation.

AND... IF.... there ever WAS a treasure....
It is SO long gone that the only thing to be found is what they are finding.

Also... it is theoretically silly to assume that any endeavor to bury a sizable treasure of any type would entail any form of massive deep pit with booby-traps etc.
This is nothing but pure childish imagination at best IMO... unrealistic... unnecessary... and beyond a real scope of engineering simply to hide something... especially something of importance that may have to be moved / removed at a later point if necessary.

If you really think simply about it... the story falls in the "protect something" mode... not the hide forever from everyone and everything on the earth mode / possible lost / possible irretrievable mode.

I understand your point about the posting of factual/documented evidence of whether the money pit or treasure ever existed.

My thoughts on that - Research of prior searchers and known information may lead to the assumption that the money pit never existed. Then you have to consider the prior known information is also based on assumptions. Whether a treasure ever existed on Oak Island has a zero chance of being determined 100% either way (until found). As for documented evidence the Oak Island treasure existed, who would provide that? Surely not the people that hid the loot.
As for documented finds over a 200-year period, that means very little to me. Is there a place where you document your finds so we can all go there and read about them? H. Glenn Carson writer of treasure books and columns for treasure magazine's put it best, if you find something "Keep your mouth shut!". The locals continue to search the waters around Oak Island and can search the shore up to the high tide line, the beginning point of property ownership on Oak Island. You can rest assured the locals have searched the Island too. Are their finds documented somewhere? Your point about documented evidence of treasure to this point is true, but we will never know about all of the undocumented finds.

I am certainly not a proponent of the show, but I get it....it's entertaining for many, its a money maker for the Laginas....heck, I even watched the Bill Ladd episodes even though HE was hard to watch...but it was entertaining to me. Oak Island may not be for everyone, it is most likely just entertainment for those of us who like a good treasure story. People like SW has posted on several threads as being a naysayer and a buzz kill and thats ok....but man o man... if that's how a person chooses to post I think they should just move on or show us their dug treasures so we can have some positive Interactions ....JMHO
