Ever hear of the Fairplay Dredge?

This dredge was purchased and used to dredge the river from behind Alma, Colorado to Fairplay, Colorado, a few miles away. The river was dammed up and the dredge floated in an area as it dredged for gold. When an area was dredged out they would build a new dam and move the dredge to the new flooded area.

This continued down river for many years. During this time, the bottom of the dredge was dumped of all the gravel and sand that accumulates. They dumped this garbage out 3-4 times throughout the years. The dredge was not known for making very much money, the proceeds were still enough to continue. You can see the results of the dredge using google images. Just outside the town of Fairplay, Colorado you can see giant, snake like, light colored, fat lines outside the town. These are 10' piles of the rocks that were dredged up over all those years.

When the dredge reached Fairplay, it sank. The mining operation was finished, they abandoned the dredge until the early 70's. During the early 70's the current owners of the dredge sold it to a russian company for 'scrap.' The russians were planning on fixing it up and selling it to some other buyer. (The dredge is still operating today in South America)

When the Russians went to salvage the dredge, they found 70 BILLION dollars in gold dust in the bottom. The same place they dumped all the gravel and sand from the 3-4 times over the years. Apparently the company assumed that the dredge was broken and not one single person went to look. The amount of gold was so massive the US govt forced the Russians to sell them the gold, only allowing the us dollars out of the country. They say you can track the massive number of private companies that sprang up through the 70 BILLION dollar influx of money. Early 70's dollars, no less.

Why?

"I would never make such a mistake!" you say to yourself. I have an idea why such a thing could happen and it has to do with the altitude of Fairplay and diet. Fairplay is 2 miles above sea level at 10,000 feet in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Oxygen deprivation issues begin at 8,000 feet. When I first moved here I had a number of issues related to lack of oxygen, until I found out a few things. ;)

The alkalinity of your blood determines how much oxygen each red blood cell can carry. Once my wife and I absorbed this information we changed our diets to more alkaline. Where before we tired quickly and had focus and mental clarity issues, we now had clear heads and plenty of energy.

I've had conversations with people here where I could tell they weren't fully conscious. Crazy stuff. I fully believe the poor diet of the miners, combined with the low oxygen of the altitude, were the main factors in overlooking a 70 BILLION dollar windfall. :)

Choose your foods by your blood type, keep your diet natural and alkaline and you'll have an advantage over anyone with an acidic diet. :)

Keep it Clean!
