A huge treasure worth $13 billion in the 18th century was found on a small island in Chile

Robinson Crusoe Island

On Robinson Crusoe Island off the west coast of Chile in the South Pacific Ocean, amazing secrets are buried in lush forests. Legend has it that Spanish and British pirates buried huge treasures here, attracting countless treasure hunters. Today, the treasure hunters of Wagner Salvage Company believe that they have found this 18th-century treasure, with countless jewels and gold coins totaling 13 billion dollars, which is the largest treasure in the world at present.

"Treasure Island"

Robinson Crusoe Island is about 7 kilometers from the central part of the west coast of Chile, with only 6 residents. It belongs to the Juan Fernandez Islands of Chile and was once a refuge for pirates crossing the Pacific Ocean.

In p>174, alexander selkirk, a Scottish sailor, was caught up with the island because of a dispute with the captain, and lived alone for four years and four months. British journalist daniel defoe wrote Robinson Crusoe on this basis. Selkirk's lonely island was named "Robinson Crusoe Island".

According to records, the Spanish navigator Juan esteban Ubiglia buried a huge fortune on the island in 1715. In 1774, George Anson, a famous British pirate, buried more than $1 billion worth of treasure stolen from Spanish businessmen here. This is the largest treasure trove of pirates in history.

Later, British pirates once dug up the treasure, but due to infighting, they had to bury the gold again.

New Discovery

At present, a search team organized by Wagner Salvage Company believes that they have found the exact location of the huge treasure. The search team uses a multifunctional robot to detect, which can not only detect metals, but also identify chemical compounds.

Fernando Uribe echeverria, a lawyer for the search team, said that they would start digging as soon as they got the official permission from Chile. This treasure may include 864 barrels of gold, 16 boxes of gold coins, each weighing 13 kilograms, 2 gold ingots and 21 barrels of jewelry, with a total value of about $13 billion. "This is the greatest treasure in history," Fernando said.

as for the ownership of treasures, Chilean law stipulates that 75% of the treasures found in the country's territory belong to the Chilean government, and the remaining 25% belong to the discoverer. At present, the island is under the supervision of the Chilean National Forestry Group. Once the treasure is unearthed, it will become a "windfall" for the residents of Chile and the island.
