On August 9, 2025, supported by Community elders, we conducted observations of 2 tributaries of the Rio Minho. Whilst our tour ultimately led us to an Adit of the Elma Gold Mine, we were exposed to a wealth of Geologic & Archaelogic insight (field).

As you watch the video below, you will be exposed to:

✅ River Bed & Bank Observations.
✅Mineralizations on Rock Samples.
✅ Elma Gold Mine Adit Location.

Each section contributes to the whole story of precious metals deposition & richness that extends to our locations at various points of the tributaries, and potentially even further downstream-supporting my theory expressed in previous videos, of rivers in Jamaica holding key insight into potential-actual sites of placer deposits of precious metals.

Additionally, you will learn of key indicators of Past Flooding (Paleo floods) & Earthquakes (Paleo earthquakes).
