NARRATOR: As a new day begins, and while the investigation

Craig Tester, Alex Lagina, and Oak Island Historian Charles

Barkhaus have traveled some 50 miles Northeast of Oak Island

to St. Mary's University in the city of Halifax.

NARRATOR: They have arranged for Dr. Christa Brosseau,

to scientifically analyze the possible 18th century

iron spikes that were found in the uplands earlier this week.

before the money pit's discovery in 1795,

they could not only offer important evidence

that the team is close to locating the main flood

tunnel connected to the fabled treasure shaft,

built the elaborate money pit treasure vault and when.

NARRATOR: Working with her colleague, Dr. Xiang Yang,

Dr. Brosseau will examine the spikes using a high powered

scanning electron microscope, capable of magnifying

objects up to 200,000 times their actual size.

I think this is the first time we've seen phosphorus

So it's typically called phosphoric iron.

were not very good at removing phosphorus.

It's a good indication that more likely pre-1840s.

such as iron ore, phosphorus has a great effect

will cause iron and steel to become extremely brittle,

the practice of extracting it for manufacturing purposes

became common beginning in the mid-19th century.

This is different, so maybe this is original.

wouldn't have used an iron ore rich in phosphorus.

So likely, these two originated from same batch

And so that may help you trace area of manufacture.

have iron ore rich in phosphorus includes

a new item, a new science that can advance our search.

And we've got the potential to be original.

as it is, but ti's science, and it's the truth.

It's a little bit of more new information.
