piece or could there still be some gold buried in the sand and hidden in the. board with a stick to the devil for the money that you still hoped we might find another piece if you look at the pendant you can see they're not all identical they're very similar but they're so skillfully crafted that it's very into zine i think about the yen when they're mcguffin also if you assume they have been symmetrically arranged on a chain it's like 2 or more pieces are definitely missing if you folks buying a stock or one for life maybe someone from hidden say it's one of those pieces in a jewelry box and this is a tyler. is this kind of gold treasure unique to styles and or is there something similar elsewhere in germany or europe. as. so i am. a treasure like the one we have here is unique the vikings tended to work in silver and so an ensemble of jewelry in a pure gold is incomparable but it's almost pure gold we've analyzed the materials

but the chalk is also a natural raw material with many useful applications and you need treatments for example. chalk cliffs were created 68000000 years ago in southern europe through the shifting of tectonic plates the chalk deposits were pushed to the north during playful periods they were thrust to the surface the chalk is made from the remains of tiny marine organisms. the strokers especially pure because no other sediments were dragged into this basin with it. and there are those for the last 150 meters or chalk sediment sitting here on the surface. and some of them are up to 160 meters above sea level but in reality and there's only one place in germany where they exist and that's here on the island of kruger does a sea of that it's always. been even has a museum devoted to chalk it's been mined here for almost 200 years chalk is used
