New artifacts in coal. Strange archaeological finds

Photos from open sources

As you know, coal was formed on our planet hundreds of millions of years ago, and therefore things that are occasionally found in coal seams, often at a depth of hundreds or more meters, have lain there for at least 300 million years. What is amazing is what exactly is found in this ancient coal... (website)

For example, a certain Mrs. S. W. Culp in the last century accidentally found a chain weighing 192 grams, made of 8-karat gold, in the coal she bought. Having broken a large piece of coal to make it easier to put it in the firebox of the stove, the woman discovered this decoration, which had miraculously fallen into a stone layer. Such a discovery is not just an event, it is a real sensation, because 300 million years ago, when this piece of coal was formed, there was no trace of a person on Earth, according to official science. Then who made this decoration and why?..

And many such mysterious finds have accumulated over the past two centuries. For example, the co-authors of the book “Forbidden Archaeology,” Richard Thomson and Michel Cremo, give many similar examples that do not fit into the generally accepted history of mankind, making one think seriously...

Gifts that coal brings us

...In 1928, in the state of Oklahoma, USA, in a coal mine at a depth of about one hundred meters, workers, while dismantling coal after an explosion in the tunnel, suddenly discovered concrete hexagonal blocks, each face of which was exactly 30 centimeters and was perfectly polished. Subsequent blasting revealed an entire wall made of these hexagonal blocks. Experts have determined that the age of coal is at least 280 million years. Who built these structures at that time? And even made of concrete, which is not afraid of time? And this is not an isolated case when mysterious buildings of extreme antiquity are found in mines deep underground. The fantastic gifts that coal gives us are sometimes discovered at great depths, where the layers were formed 600 million years ago or even earlier.

No less interesting is the discovery of coal in 1912 in the state of Oklahoma, USA. Here's what Frank Kenwood wrote about it:

That year we were mining coal in Thomas and I came across a very large piece that I decided to break. Under the blow of a sledgehammer, it split into two halves, and inside it was a metal mug. My partner Gil Stull witnessed this. As far as I know, that coal was formed approximately three hundred million years ago. How did the mug get there? Unfortunately, scientists took it away from us - and for good reason, so I can’t say anything about the mug itself, the composition of its metal, and so on...

Many similar discoveries were made in the Wilburton mines, whose coal is more than 300 million years old. Here, one day, an ingot of silver was discovered in a piece of coal, and it was of the correct shape with imprints of rivets on it.

Iron nails, gears, bolts were also found in the coal... And a copper bell with an artistically made handle, which was discovered in a piece of coal in 1944?..

A lot can be said about such mysteries, and these are only the “gifts” of coal. There is disproportionately more of everything else that antiquity researchers find that fits the definition of “forbidden archeology” (watch the video about this).

Are there traces of previous civilizations in coal?

Who left all this on Earth in that distant time when dinosaurs did not yet roam it? After all, science claims that lizards appeared on Earth approximately 225 million years ago. A concrete wall found in a coal mine is 600 million years old, and all kinds of household items and decorations are 300 million years old or more. Who did it all belong to? Aliens? It’s a stretch to assume that it was they who built the wall, but a gold chain, a silver bar, a copper bell, an iron nail, a bolt and a metal mug are a bit poor for the aliens, and why do they need all this?..

It turns out that there were civilizations on Earth long before the advent of humanity, and we know absolutely nothing about it. And we don’t want to know, because, on the one hand, “unsinkable” Darwinism, and on the other, all sorts of political adventures, expressed in the desire of the powers that be to correct or even radically change history, turned people into savages, who, figuratively speaking, were imprisoned into an artificial cell and convinced them (through false textbooks and corrupt media) that this particular cell is our one and only habitat.

Just think about this now common definition that Richard Thomson and Michel Cremo took for the title of their book - forbidden archaeology. Why is it forbidden and, most importantly, by whom and on what basis is it prohibited?..

Man-made artifacts of artificial origin were discovered in Montenegrin coal - an aluminum rod and a gear rack. The estimated official age of the find is 300 million years.

The find was made in a coal “sandwich” by a resident of Vladivostok, who was lighting the stove in his house.

The mysterious artifact attracted attention at first sight. The whitish metal rod stood out clearly against the black background of the coal, which was delivered from Chernogorsk (Khakassia). Upon closer inspection, it turned out that it was a metal rail with unusually wide pitch intervals. The man immediately took the artifact to specialists.

X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the find consists of pure aluminum with microimpurities of magnesium (2.4%) - in fact, duralumin. Note that the first documented fact of producing aluminum dates back to 1825.

Scientists were also surprised by the age of coal - 300 million years, which corresponds to the end of the Carboniferous period of the Paleozoic era. This leads to very interesting conclusions - in that distant era, not only people, but also mammals did not exist. The world was ruled by giant insects and amphibians - the ancestors of dinosaurs.

Today there are several assumptions about the sensational discovery. For example, according to the occult historical doctrine of Helena Blavatsky, the mechanism could well have been created by the ancient civilization of giant Lemurians, which supposedly existed in the era of giant lizards. Or a hypothesis about an ancient visit of aliens who left traces of their presence on Earth.

Let us add that last year at the Chernogorsky open-pit mine, during mining operations, ten objects of an even round shape, reminiscent of giant dinosaur eggs, were discovered. Scientists have not confirmed this hypothesis, although they agreed that such natural formations are very rare.

Doctor of Biological Sciences from the Siberian Federal University comments the following: “In that era, man as a biological species did not yet exist, and cheap aluminum began to be produced only in the 20th century. Two options remain - either the artifact is of cosmic origin or is a part of a modern mechanism that accidentally fell into into coal for one reason or another. It’s easy to find out - you need to compare the ratio of aluminum and magnesium with Soviet, Russian and international standards. I’m sure everything will immediately fall into place."

The famous Dalnegorsk ufologist Valery DVUZHILNY recently became the owner of an interesting - and, as he himself believes, sensational - find. Vladivostok resident Dmitry bought 3 tons of coal from Khakassia, from the south of Central Siberia, where the Kansk-Achinsk coal basin with an area of ​​400 square meters is located. km. In one of the pieces of coal, he discovered a strange rod sticking out from there, similar to a piece of a black and white twig. He brought the find to Dalnegorsk, the researcher of anomalous phenomena Valery Dvuzhilny, reports the correspondent of the news agency Data.

“We sawed this rod, which Dmitry removed from the coal,” said Dvuzhilny. “I cleaned my half of the coal - and saw an aluminum gear rack 7.5 cm long. What's unusual about it? It is made of almost pure aluminum with an admixture of magnesium, and aluminum is a very soft material to make such racks from. The coals, between the layers of which there was a lath, are 300 million years old. And this piece of metal is also 300 million years old. It, like canned food, has been preserved in coals to this day. The rake from our time could not get there, because the coal layers were opened at a depth of several tens of meters. In our country, no one makes gear racks from pure aluminum, because the metal is very soft and wears out quickly. The teeth are cut in such a way that it can only be an artificial product. This is the first time something similar has been found in Russian coals. Previously, a gold chain was found in a piece of coal in Germany; in the USA, a small iron pot was found in coals..."

Dvuzhilny also considers the fact that a high amount of carbon was found in the metal composition to be a sign of the considerable age of the found lath. Over hundreds of millions of years, diffusion occurred: carbon penetrated the aluminum lattice. In modern conditions, aluminum is produced by an electrothermal method, so there cannot be any carbon in it. Another evidence of the age of the rack: in places it is deeply corroded and filled with a gray-white mass - traces of corrosion. It turned out that aluminum corroded with sodium chlorine, that is, with ordinary salt. It is known that in the coal basin in Khakassia there was once a salty reservoir.

Conclusions of Valery Dvuzhilny: this rod is a product of the technical creativity of terrestrial civilization, or extraterrestrial aliens, or it was “dropped” by time travelers. And the remaining parts of the mechanism, where the rack was used, must be looked for in the coal basin in Khakassia. Something that hardly anyone will do.

The second interesting discovery at Dvuzhilny appeared several years ago, when they were just starting to build a bridge to Russky Island. Drilling wells on the seabed was carried out by specialists from Dalnegorsk, from ZAO Izyskatel. They drilled wells up to 10 m deep and delved into the Permian sandstones, which are 240 million years old. At a depth of 9 m, cores were pulled out and brought to Dalnegorsk for analysis. Dvuzhilny was interested in these samples. When crushing cores, he discovered particles of special alloys: an alloy of cerium and lanthanum, an alloy with chromium and others. They were found in sandstones in the form of shavings, plates, and fragments. And these pieces of metal, like sandstones, are 240 million years old. All this time they were “stored” inside the sandstones.

These alloys were studied at various research institutes, including the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Gatchina. Scientists' conclusion: these are artificial alloys. And 240 million years ago there were not even dinosaurs, let alone humans. And Dvuzhilny’s conclusions coincide with those he made based on an aluminum lath found in ancient coal seams: these are “traces” of some kind of pre-civilization or aliens. There was an accident at some technical facility, most likely an explosion, as small particles remained. The fragments fell into sandstones, which then became compacted. Microparticles of alloys were preserved in them.

STARTED THE STOVE

The plot in question began more than casually. Vladivostok resident Dmitry ordered coal for the winter. If someone else had been in his place, maybe all this coal would have been burned just as casually. But then, throwing fuel into the stove, the man noticed that something was pressed into one of the ordinary pieces of coal, in shape resembling either a rod or a lath.

Having decided that he could not cope with this problem himself, Dmitry called the famous Primorye researcher of anomalous phenomena, biologist Valery Dvuzhilny. After examining the find, he suggested that a piece of petrified branch or ore mineral had gotten into the coal. But is it? It was agreed that partial processing of the rod and taking microsamples for analysis were necessary.

Carefully breaking the piece, they removed from it an irregularly shaped rod, a little more than 7 centimeters long, all covered with stuck black coal. After control grinding, silver-colored metal was discovered under the scale. It was not magnetic, it was soft and light. The most interesting thing was that when cleaning the rod, the teeth and the pitch-interval between them were exposed. The find was very similar to a toothed metal rack created artificially. All this resembled parts often used in microscopes and various technical and electronic devices.

WHO LOST A GEAR?

This coal was brought to Primorye from Khakassia, from the Chernogorsk deposit. The age of these coals is known - about 300 million years. So, the researchers wondered, the metal part pressed into it is of the same advanced age?! But who could have made a gear “spare part” 300 million years ago, during the Carboniferous and prehistoric era?

The partially deformed (by explosion?) lath had a strange cross-sectional shape - an irregular triangle with a displaced apex. The pitch between the teeth was also strange (only six of them survived, the rest were deformed) - unusually wide, awkward in relation to the size of the teeth themselves.

The answer to the question of what metal the rail is made of was given by an X-ray diffraction analysis carried out by Valery Dvuzhilny. It turned out that the find was made of very pure aluminum - with microimpurities of magnesium of only 2 - 4 percent.

This in itself was surprising, because humanity usually uses pure aluminum very rarely. Mainly alloys with manganese, silicon, copper. There are alloys with magnesium, but it is usually up to 10 percent, plus alloying additives from titanium, zirconium, and beryllium. And this alloy was not like any of those used in our time!

Having found out the composition of the rod, we found the answer to the question of how the part could be preserved after millions of years: pure aluminum is covered with a durable film of oxides, which prevents further corrosion. In addition, once in coal, the prehistoric part turned into “canned food”, which was opened by a person at the beginning of the 21st century in Khakassia. There was no oxygen access to the “canned food”, and the rail did not collapse. In addition, notes Double-core, the purest aluminum may indicate a high technology of its production.

Another discovery: it turned out that the material contains from 28 to 75 percent carbon.

This shouldn’t have happened,” says Valery Dvuzhilny. - Because aluminum is produced by the electrothermal method. This means that carbon could only come from coal due to diffusion into the aluminum crystal lattice. The pressure of the layers was enormous. The presence of carbon is one hundred percent confirmation of the age of the part - 300 million years.

A large amount of carbon is a very strange fact,” Igor Okunev, a senior researcher at the St. Petersburg Institute of Nuclear Physics, supports his colleague. - After all, aluminum has an incredibly chemically resistant film on the air-metal interface. It is also strange that the rack resembles in its appearance an element of a gear transmission, although due to the softness and high wearability of aluminum it simply could not be used in this way.

The most interesting thing,” the scientist continues, “is this aluminum ours, earthly? As far as science knows today, there is extraterrestrial aluminum-26 that decays into magnesium-26. Isn't the magnesium in the seaside find cosmic?

If a resident of Vladivostok really found a part of extraterrestrial origin, then how did the so-called rod get to Earth three hundred million years ago? Was it left behind by aliens who studied the Earth long before Homo sapiens appeared on it? Or maybe this is a rare artifact of the existence of the most ancient civilization of the Upper Carboniferous period on our planet?

This is the first time such a discovery in coals has been made in Russia,” says Valery Dvuzhilny. - One thing is clear for now: the rack is an artificially created technical part with great age. It is completely excluded that this is a modern part that allegedly could have come in during explosions or from equipment.

ROADSIDE PICNIC

The discovery of a strange artifact in coals is far from an isolated case in our time. So, in 1912, in Oklahoma, an iron pot was extracted from a piece of coal 312 million years old. In Romania in 1974, in the sandstones of a quarry at least 1 million years old, an aluminum part was found that resembled a hammer or a support for the landing leg of the Viking and Apollo spacecraft.

But the oldest product was discovered in 1851 in Massachusetts during blasting in a quarry. This is a silver and zinc vase with the finest silver inlay in the shape of a vine. The age of this vase, judging by the rocks in which it was found, is 534 million years!

This seemingly ordinary iron pot lay in the ground for 312 million years. Photo: www.lah.ru

Finally, Valery Dvuzhilny himself, examining cores (rock samples) raised from a 9-meter depth while drilling the seabed for supports of the bridge to Russky Island, discovered pieces of special alloys of unusual composition “preserved” in prehistoric sandstones (age - 240 million years) , which are clearly not used in drilling mechanisms and are not ore minerals. The alloys, Dvuzhilny believes, were of artificial origin and made by intelligent beings. What kind of accident happened within the boundaries of modern Vladivostok in the area of ​​​​Cape Nazimov 240 million years ago? Or maybe the aliens simply littered here, as in the Strugatskys’ novel Roadside Picnic, and flew away safely - we will probably never know. Although... you never know what else we will find in coal mines?

And this “hammer” is the youngest. It is only 1 million years old. Photo: www.lah.ru

INSTEAD OF A COMMENT

Forbidden Archeology

Strange finds recovered from the depths during mining are fueling several conspiracy theories. According to one, in the distant past - tens, or even hundreds of millions of years ago - aliens visited the Earth. According to another, our planet already had its own intelligent life. That is, there were civilizations that preceded ours. Therefore, objects that look man-made are what remains either from the “newcomers” or from the “early ones.”

According to another theory, representatives of official science know about the artifacts, but hide them. Because the finds really indicate that there was someone on Earth before us. And this does not fit into the modern understanding of the world. As a result, there is a so-called forbidden archeology, into whose secrets only a select few are privy.

Skeptics naturally disagree with conspirators. They accuse them of either falsifying artifacts or scientific illiteracy, assuring them that even the most seemingly incredible finds can be explained by completely natural reasons. Without attracting “newcomers” or “early ones”.

At the A.E. Fersman Mineralogical Museum (Moscow) “KP” they showed fancy gold bars, as if assembled from regular rectangular figures. They looked like parts of some kind of mechanism. It turns out that such metal products, including “nails” and “chains,” “grow” themselves precisely in the cracks of mineral layers. One long crack - it turns out to be a chain. A crack intersects another, smaller one, at a right angle - here you have a “nail head” or a more complex structure of the correct shape. But most often, inclusions of metals - from noble to rare earth - are found in coal. The aluminum rail may well be from the same breed.

Hammer? In some mines, mineral springs create a stone shell around any dropped object in a few weeks. Even petrified slippers are kept in museums.

Vase? Ladle? There is no complete certainty that these objects actually exist. Many so-called artifacts are presented only in the form of descriptions or photographs.

Where the truth is, of course, is unknown. It's like with a UFO. Some people say that these are aliens coming to us. Others don’t believe in aliens or UFOs.

Push. On the good side, it is time to throw out official methods of radio dating of fossils and abolish the geochronological scale.

There is a hypothesis of the abiogenic origin of coal. Through degassing of the Earth: http://hydrogen-future.com/syvorotkin-book.html
In short: as gases pass through certain types of rock, they chemically interact with the layers and carbon is adsorbed into the rock. And this could happen very quickly on a geological scale, for example, immediately after a global catastrophe, a flood, when a highly developed civilization and culture was wiped off the face of the earth. And this was not millions of years, but only a few thousand years ago.

About 15 years ago, in southern Primorye (Partizansky district), fragments of a building were found, made of material that could not yet be obtained using modern technologies.

When laying a logging road, a tractor cut off the tip of a small hill. Under the Quaternary deposits there was some kind of building or structure of a small size (no more than 1 m in height), consisting of structural parts of different sizes and shapes.

It is unknown what the structure looked like. The bulldozer operator behind the dump could not see anything and pulled away the fragments of the structure about 10 meters away, also crumbling it with the tracks.

The details were collected by geophysicist Valery Pavlovich Yurkovets. Here is his comment:

“At first we thought that this was an object of rather archaeological interest, but, as it turned out 10 years later, we were mistaken. After 10 years, I did a mineralogical analysis of the sample. The details of the building turned out to be made of grains of crystalline moissanite cemented with a fine-grained moissanite mass. The size of the grains reached 5 mm with a thickness of 2-3 mm. The grains partially retained their crystallographic cut. From the available literature on moissanite, I learned that obtaining crystalline moissanite in such quantities as to “build” something larger than a piece of jewelry is not yet possible. At the same time, it is huge its quantity is now produced by industry in the form of micropowder - mainly as the hardest abrasive after diamond.

It is not only the hardest mineral. But also the most acid-, heat-, alkali-resistant. The cladding of "Buran" was made of moissanite tiles. The unique properties of moissanite are used in aerospace, nuclear, electronics and other cutting-edge industries.

I have a sample of this building weighing several kilos. It consists of at least 70% CRYSTALINE moissanite. They learned how to obtain moissanite in this form - in the form of crystals - quite recently, and this is a very expensive production. Each moissanite crystal costs approximately 1/10 of the same size diamond. At the same time, growing a crystal with a thickness of more than 0.1 mm is possible only in special installations using temperatures above 2500 degrees.

There is also a fragment of the base. A kind of concrete: calcite + crushed diatomite. On the surface of the base there are remnants of paint - presumably based on lapis lazuli, which is not found in those places. The “concrete” is heavily weathered, in contrast to the paint and moissanite elements, which are almost timeless components.

Moissanite structural parts bear traces of molding on their surface in certain standard volumes. The parts themselves have ideal geometric shapes: cylinders, truncated cones, slabs. Cylinders are containers. Moissanite parts can only be molded at temperatures above 2500 degrees. What were the forms made of then?..

I only have one piece of the foundation. It is impossible to say whether there was brickwork. The solution itself is visually indistinguishable from highly weathered limestone. If it were not for the “embedded” brick and quartz powder in the composition, it would be typical limestone. There are even leaching surfaces, like in caves.

There is no such thing in the literature on moissanite either - about four years ago I decided to look into this issue, but I came to an even greater impasse and put it off until better times. The only moissanite similar in description was found in the Mir and Zarnitsa diamond pipes in an amount of only 40 grains no larger than 1 mm in size. I have grains 3x5, 4x4 mm. The weight of the grains is up to 20 mg (0.1 carats). Those. I was even able to weigh them on my hunting scales.

Mineralogists from VSEGEI (All-Russian Research Geological Institute named after A.P. Karpinsky) have never encountered moissanite of this kind. I talked 4 years ago with a specialist from the Research Institute of Artificial Materials, but he also could not suggest anything intelligible. One thing is clear that these parts were not obtained in the same way as is currently used. Or in other constants, i.e. not on Earth."

The base of the “brand” is 13x18 cm (this part is covered with a moissanite film - as if “drenched” in amorphous moissanite).

The base of the “brand” is 13.13x18.25 cm = 7.185 inches

Cylinder Diameter - 9.13 cm = 3.594 inches

T-bar wall thickness - 5.32 cm = 2.094 inches

Cone rim width - 1.25 cm

Cone base diameter - 14.6 cm

Cone rim diameter - 11.59 cm

Cylinder seat depth - 1.70 cm

Cylinder seat diameter - 9.25 cm

Cone height - 3.26 cm

Plate thickness - 2.42 cm

The thickness of another slab is 3.27 cm

At the base (foundation) there are fragments of a “brick”, probably cut from diatomite, its dimensions: 13.7x11.4x6.5 cm. These dimensions are made with a larger error, because The “brick” is already heavily weathered. The edges are at least partially preserved on all sides. In relation to our brick - neither half nor two thirds. The diatomite of the brick crumbles, but there are fresh edges - where the “mortar” has been beaten off. One of the components of the solution is also diatomite. A piece of solution scratches the glass. There are no saw marks on the fresh edges, but there are traces of the shape - I just noticed this now. So the brick was cast. There are no signs of burning.

From the conclusion issued on December 18, 2001 by the VSEGEI Central Laboratory:

“The presented sample consists of large fragments of moissanite cemented by a fine-grained mass.
Moissanite is a dark blue mineral, has the composition SiC and has a hardness of 9.5. In the sample it is represented by fragments of grains that partially retain their crystallographic cut. In some cases, crystals in the form of thick hexagonal plates are clearly visible. The grain size reaches 2 mm. On one side of the sample, the surface is slightly ground, as a result of which the upper fragments of moissanite are limited to planes close to horizontal. On both sides, the sample has a surface covered with glassy fused crusts of brown color, similar to volcanic glass with a refractive index of 1.505, but with high hardness (not scratched by a needle).

The cementing mass is represented by a fine-grained material with refractive indices ranging from 1.530 to 1.560. Presumably this is a mixture of clay minerals, and it is possible that this cement also contains gypsum. There is no carbonate component. Moissanite is also present among the cement in small grains ranging in size from 0.0 to 0.1 mm.
The mineral in thin sections (phenocrysts) is represented by moissanite.

In thin section N1, the number of its grains reaches 60-70% of the total area. In numerous grains up to 1-0.5 mm, irregular, parts of a bizarre, rarely prismatic shape, with melted boundaries, sometimes with bay-shaped boundaries. More often, it is densely colored in a dark blue color, often to the point of being opaque; in grains with a less dense color, its heterogeneity with noticeable pleochroism is noticeable. With a metallic sheen in reflected light, iridescent.

Very high refractive index, high birefringence, clearly visible pearlescent interference colors, sharp shagreen surface, no cleavage, direct extinction relative to elongation, uniaxial.

The main host mass is fine pelitic, brownish, opaque."

The discovery of mysterious iron pipes (photo left) in Mount Baigong located in the depths of the Qaidam Basin in Qinghai Province (China) has aroused the interest of many scientists. Some experts believe that they may be artifacts left by aliens, intended to pump fresh air into the caves in which these aliens meditated. Three caves have been found in Mount Baigong: two of them are destroyed and inaccessible; the middle one has not yet collapsed and measures 2 meters wide, 8 meters high and 6 meters deep (photo on the right).

Inside this cave there is a part of a pipe running from the top of the mountain to the end of the cave - it is approximately 40 cm in diameter. Another pipe of the same diameter comes from the bottom of the cave somewhere below. During the opening of the cave, a total of 12 pipes with a diameter of 10 to 40 cm were found, which create complex weaves, which indicates the high technique of the builders.

According to other sources, on this mountain there is a pyramid about 50-60 meters high (and the caves are located in the pyramid itself). On one side of the pyramid there are three triangular shafts, and inside it there are red wells that go to the foot of the mountain and to the nearby salt lake. Scattered around the area are pieces of rusty iron, pipes and stones, processed in an unusual way.

Lake Toson is located approximately 80 meters from the caves. On the side of the lake closest to the cave there are several more pipes about 40 meters long and with a diameter of 2 to 4.5 centimeters. They have bizarre shapes. The thinnest of them has the shape of a toothpick.

There are pipes in the lake too. Some of them stick out from the water, and some are at the bottom. Their characteristics are similar to those on the beach near the lake.

Samples of the pipe material were taken for examination, which showed that approximately 8 percent of their composition could not be identified. Liu Shaoling, one of the engineers who carried out the analysis, said: "The result of the interaction of iron with stone indicates that these pipes must be very, very old."

According to one of the scientists working at an observatory located next to the mountain, the theory that the pyramid was built by aliens seems “clear and worthy of attention.”

The expedition of the Kosmopoisk group led by V.A. Chernobrova picked up a nondescript earthen stone in the field. A centimeter-long object protruded from its thickness onto the surface of this stone. Some considered it similar to a “bolt and nut”, others - to a “reel”.

The stone successively visited the paleontological, zoological, physical-technical, aviation-technological institutes, the Paleontological and Biological museums, laboratories and design bureaus, the Moscow Aviation Institute, Moscow State University, as well as several dozen other specialists in various fields of knowledge.

A thorough chemical analysis showed: over the past time, the iron atoms diffused, that is, they moved inside the stone to a depth of one and a half centimeters, and in their place were silicon atoms that came from the stone. As a result of this, an oval glandular “cocoon” was formed, and is now clearly visible. For paleontologists and lithological geologists, this phenomenon is the most common: they know that everything that is inside a stone for millions of years sooner or later becomes stone. The evidence that the object was originally metal is undeniable. Even the rust is noticeable!

But there is even more impressive evidence of the antiquity of the phenomenon: X-ray photographs clearly showed that there are other “bolts” inside the stone, now hidden from view. And the currently visible sample was also once inside, until the stone broke apart relatively recently on a geological time scale. Moreover, it seems that this “bolt” itself became the point of tension from which the fault began.

Paleontologists have resolved all questions regarding the age of the stone: it is truly ancient, it is 300-320 million years old. It was established that the “bolt” got into the rock before it hardened and, therefore, its age is in no way less, if not more, than the age of the stone. The “bolt” could not have hit the stone later (for example, as a result of an explosion, including a nuclear one), because the structure of the stone was not damaged by it. In all the technical institutes there was not a single specialist who doubted that this was an artificial product that had somehow gotten inside the stone.

However, at first, when it came to the possibility of such a product being found in a 300-million-year-old rock, everyone had doubts. But they quickly disappeared after microscopic and x-ray studies. Moreover, in addition to the “bolt”, and next to it, the skeptics themselves discovered several more man-made formations, including two strange microscopic balls with square holes...

The second group of skeptics argued that the “bolt” is nothing more than an ancient fossil animal. Some even called the most similar analogue - crinoid - sea lily. But... a specialist in these same crinoids, after examining them, said that he had never seen such LARGE crinoids and exactly this shape.

Similar “bolts”, it turns out, can be found in other places. A similar find from the collection of A.V. Bolotov, a famous researcher of the Tunguska meteorite, is shown in the photo on the left. It is clearly visible that some kind of threaded rod has “grown” into the stone.

In May 2009, LAI received a letter from Alexey Golubev, who sent photographs of a find discovered by his acquaintance, Vladimir Mikhailovich Kuznetsov, in the village of Sarakseevo, Serpukhov district, Moscow region. We are talking about a stone that was originally tried to be used as a common building material. The stone was very large and did not fit into the masonry. I had to split it. And when the internal contents of the stone were discovered, the question of installing it in the masonry disappeared by itself...

Hammer in limestone

A puzzling mystery for science is... an ordinary-looking hammer. The metal part of the hammer is 15 centimeters long and about 3 centimeters in diameter. It literally grew into limestone about 140 million years old, and is stored together with a piece of rock. This miracle caught the eye of Mrs. Emma Khan in June 1934 in the rocks near the American town of London, in the state of Texas. The experts who examined the find came to a unanimous conclusion: a hoax. However, further research carried out by various scientific institutions, including the famous Battelle Laboratory (USA), showed that everything is much more complicated.

Firstly, the wooden handle on which the hammer is mounted is already petrified on the outside, and completely turned into coal on the inside. This means that its age is also calculated in millions of years. Secondly, specialists at the Metallurgical Institute in Columbus (Ohio) were amazed by the chemical composition of the hammer itself: 96.6% iron, 2.6% chlorine and 0.74% sulfur. No other impurities could be identified. Such pure iron has never been obtained in the entire history of earthly metallurgy.

Not a single bubble was found in the metal. The quality of iron, even by modern standards, is exceptionally high and raises many questions, since the content of metals used in the metallurgical industry in the production of various types of steel (such as manganese, cobalt, nickel, tungsten, vanadium) is not detected or molybdenum). There are also no foreign impurities, and the percentage of chlorine is unusually high. It is also surprising that no traces of carbon were found in iron, whereas iron ore from earthly deposits always contains carbon and other impurities.

Generally speaking, from a modern point of view, it is not of high quality. But here's a detail: the iron of the "Texas hammer" does not rust! When a piece of rock with an embedded tool was chipped away from the rock in 1934, the metal was severely scratched in one place. And over the past sixty-odd years, not the slightest sign of corrosion has appeared on the scratch...

According to Dr. K.E. Buff, director of the Museum of Fossil Antiquities, which houses this hammer, the find comes from the Early Cretaceous period - from 140 to 65 million years ago. According to the current state of scientific knowledge, humanity learned to make such tools only 10 thousand years ago.

Dr. Hans-Joachim Zillmer from Germany, who studied the mysterious find in detail, concludes: “This hammer was made using a technology unknown to us.”

Spacecraft debris in the sand

In Romania, 2 km east of the village of Ayud and 50 km south of the city of Cluj-Napoca, a group of workers dug up a 20.2 cm long object in a sand quarry on the banks of the Mures River in the spring of 1974. At first they thought it was a stone axe. Therefore, the find was sent to the archaeological institute. There, the object was cleared of the sand crust that covered it, and a metal object of rectangular outline, with two holes of different diameters, converging at right angles, appeared to the eyes of the researchers. An oval deformation was noticeable in the lower part of the larger of the holes - it is obvious that a shaft or rod was strengthened into the hole. The top and side surfaces were covered with traces of heavy blows. Having examined all the details together, scientists expressed the opinion that the object is part of some kind of specialized machine. Repeated metallurgical tests only deepened the mystery surrounding the found object.

At the Institute for Research and Protection of Non-ferrous Ores (city of Magural), analyzes were made (by Dr. Niederkorn), which showed that the object consisted or was made of a complex metal alloy. The alloy contains 13 elements, the main of which (89%) is aluminum. Next in descending order of percentage content were copper (6.2%), silicon (2.84%), zinc (1.81%), lead (0.41%), tin (0.33%), zirconium (0.2 %), cadmium (0.11%), nickel (0.0024%), cobalt (0.0023%), bismuth (0.0003%), silver (0.0002%) and gallium (trace).

Although aluminum is one of the most common elements in the earth's crust, in nature it can only be found in the form of compounds; for industrial purposes it is mined by electrolysis of ores in a molten state at temperatures between 950 and 970 degrees Celsius. Aluminum began to be used as a material for industrial products only in the 19th century, and this item is clearly older. Its more than respectable age is evidenced by its occurrence at a depth of 10 meters, next to the remains of a mastodon (this species of animal became extinct about a million years ago), and by an unprecedentedly thick oxide film (over one millimeter) on the surface of the object itself. Its functional purpose is also unclear. Experts puzzled for a long time until one of them quite seriously suggested that this was the “foot” of the landing support of some spacecraft...

Metal vase and granite discs

A Scientific American report in June 1851 reported that two fragments of a metal vase were found during blasting of Precambrian rock (534 million years old) in Dorchester, Massachusetts. When fastened together, the shards formed a dome-shaped shape 4.5 inches high, 6.5 inches at the base, 2.5 inches at the top and one-eighth of an inch thick. Visually, the material of the vessel resembles painted zinc or an alloy with a large admixture of silver. Decorative elements - flowers and vines - are inlaid with silver. The quality of the vase speaks of the highest skill of its manufacturer.

In July 1962, a note was published in the German magazine Das Vegetarische Universum (The Vegetarian Universe) in which the following was reported:

“On the border between Tibet and China rises the Bayan-Khara-Ula ridge. In the caves of this ridge back in 1937 (according to other sources - in January 1938) very strange tablets with writings were found. People about whom Chinese scientists have the vaguest idea , several thousand years ago, with the help of some absolutely unknown tools, discs in the form of gramophone records were cut out of extremely hard granite.716 stone discs found to date in the caves of Bayan-Khara-Ula, like gramophone discs, have a hole in the center. A double groove stretches from it in a spiral to the outer edge. Of course, this is not a sound track, but a letter - the most unusual that has ever been found in China, and, perhaps, in the whole world. It took archaeologists more than two decades philologists in order to decipher written tracks.

Their content is so surprising that the Academy of Ancient History in Beijing initially even refused to publish the scientific report of Professor Tsum Umnui. For the archaeologist Tsum Umnuy, together with four of his colleagues, came to the conclusion: “The grooved writing reports on flying machines that existed, according to the inscriptions on the disks, 12,000 years ago.” At one point the text literally says the following: "The Dropa descended from the clouds on their gliders. Ten times before sunrise, the men, women and children of the Ham people hid in caves. Then they understood the signs and saw that this time the Dropa had arrived with peaceful intentions." . One can, of course, assume that thousands of years ago some scholar from the Ham tribe allowed himself to joke or that his message about “flying machines” is based on mythology. But what then to do with the contents of other records, which are a formal lament of the Ham people over the fact that their own “air fleet” crashed in a remote mountainous area and there is no way to build a new one?

The hieroglyphic inscriptions of Bayan-Khara-Ula represent such a mystery for Chinese archeology that it introduces them into scientific circulation with great caution. After particles of stone mass were scraped off from the disks covered with inscriptions, a sensational discovery was made: the disks contained a high content of cobalt and other metals. And examination of the entire disk on an oscilloscope revealed an amazing rhythm of vibrations, as if the disks had once been “charged” or somehow served as a conductor of electricity.”

The note clearly contained glaring absurdities. For example, it is impossible to understand from the note how the inscriptions on the disks were made. They are reported to be spiral grooves, and at the same time they are said to be hieroglyphic writing. It is difficult to combine one with the other even in the imagination... However, the note aroused the interest of a number of researchers who tried to get more reliable information about the mysterious find, although now exactly the same amount is known about it as before, that is, nothing definite is known.

“The report about the discovery of “granite disks” in China is without any basis. We also know nothing about any Professor Tsum Umnu,” read the official response from the Institute of Archeology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to a request from one researcher who tried to verify the truth of the magazine story. Moreover, Chinese language experts claim that the very name “Tsum Umnui” is unthinkable for a Chinese person.

As a result, the sensation was considered at least dubious, and talk about it gradually died down. But the secret was not going to die. Apparently, there was something in it that forced many people, despite all the denials, to try again and again to find the trace of the elusive disks.

The Austrian journalist Peter Krassa showed particular persistence in this matter. He repeatedly traveled to China, even during the difficult years of the “cultural revolution,” and each time he did not miss the opportunity to make inquiries about the “Bayan-Khara-Ula disks.” At first he had no luck: no reliable information, only rumors. But Crassa did not give up. I went again, sent requests, talked about the mystery of the disks in my book “When the Yellow Gods Came.” And one day fate rewarded him for his perseverance...

On the sidelines of another conference dedicated to “alien” topics, a middle-aged stranger approached Peter Crass and introduced himself as Ernst Wegerer, an engineer who travels a lot in the world. He claimed that in 1974 he and his wife visited China and saw the mentioned discs.

The Wegerer couple's travel route ran through the city of Xi'an, one of the oldest cities in China. Here, among other historical attractions, tourists are attracted by the Banpo Museum, built on the site of the village of the same name, where archaeologists excavated a Stone Age settlement. Looking at the museum's exhibition, the guests from Austria suddenly froze, unable to believe their eyes: two disks with holes in the middle were displayed in a glass display case. On their surface, in addition to concentric circles, spiral grooves were visible running from the center.

The pretty woman, the director of the museum, did not object to photographing the discs. However, she responded to a natural request to tell about the origin of the disks with obvious hesitation. Obviously, she said, the objects have cultic significance and are made of clay, since the museum only displays pottery.

Strange: these discs did not look like ceramics. Engineer Wegerer asked permission to hold them in his hands. The discs turned out to be heavy. “Although I’m not a geologist,” he later said, “it seemed to me that their material looked like marble. In any case, it was undoubtedly a stone, greenish-gray in color and hard as granite.” The director also didn’t know where these items got into the museum, but when looking at a map of China, it immediately strikes the eye that the city of Xi’an is located not so far from the Bayan-Khara-Ula ridge.

Soon after meeting Wegerer, Peter Krassa had photographs of stone discs.

In March 1994, he visited China again. He was accompanied by Hartwig Hausdorff, who had his own cherished goal - to verify rumors about the existence of ancient pyramids in China, comparable in size to the Egyptian ones. He eventually found the pyramids, examined them, photographed them - their discovery became one of the brightest sensations of recent years... On that trip, Hausdorff was also attracted by Xi'an - according to available information, the pyramids were located in the vicinity of this particular city. And, of course, he, like Crassus, was excited about the opportunity to see the “discs of Bayan-Khara-Ula” with his own eyes.

Here is the Banpo Museum. Both travelers examine the exhibits with the greatest attention. In vain: nothing like the disks filmed twenty years ago by engineer Wegerer! The museum staff accompanying the guests are unable to give any explanation. They had never even heard of discs. Is it possible to talk to the director of the museum, whom the Wegerers remember? Unfortunately, she hasn't worked here for a long time. In the mid-seventies - yes, yes, shortly after the European couple's visit to the museum - she was recalled from here, and her current fate is unknown.

Dead end. Crassa and Hausdorff are discouraged, but press them with questions about the “Bayan-Khara-Ula disks.” Finally, the Chinese lead the guests into the service area of ​​the museum and place a book on the table. This is some kind of Chinese textbook on archeology. Having leafed through the pages dotted with hieroglyphs, one of the owners of the office points his finger at the drawing. It depicts a disk with holes in the center, from which arched grooves extend along the edges. Close to what Wegerer’s camera captured and fully consistent with the descriptions of the “Bayan-Khara-Ula disks”! It turns out that they are still known to Chinese archaeologists? Unfortunately, the publication by Hausdorff and Krassa says nothing about how the museum staff who showed it commented on the drawing...
