I'm pleased to share the famous video taken beneath Oak Island and narrated by Dan Blankenship as he points out a series of underwater anomalies and questionable structures. Some of you will remember seeing this at Explore Oak Island Days - it's a great crowd puller! See what you think and decide for yourselves

A big thanks to Jeff Blount for uploading these to share with Oak Island fans everywhere.

Oak Island Tours Inc granted Treasure Trove Licence

The wait is finally over for Dan Blankenship and other members of Oak Island Tours Inc, the team currently continuing the 200 year long treasure hunt on Nova Scotia’s Oak Island.

After a two year halt in what has become the world’s greatest treasure hunt, the team have finally been granted a Treasure Trove Licence (albeit temporary) allowing them to continue their search for treasure on Oak Island.

The treasure hunters were informed yesterday that they will be granted the necessary paperwork which will allow them to continue their search. However this licence will only allow them to resume their exploration until 31st December 2010. After this date, the Nova Scotian Department of Natural Resources/Tourism, Culture and Heritage will impose the new Oak Island Act, details of which have yet to be announced.

We go behind the scenes with new CBC documentary on Oak Island

We are very excited to bring you a sneak preview into a forthcoming CBC documentary based on the Oak Island treasure hunt. The show features an exclusive interview with treasure hunter Dan Blankenship - his first interview in over 30 years. We are looking forward to hearing what Dan has to say about his decades of treasure hunting and why he remains determined as ever to continue with the treasure hunt.




Oak Island Treasure was able to provide an overview of the mystery which 'really helped research wise to get a handle on the whole story of the island'. It's with great pleasure that we bring you behind the scenes photos and an exclusive interview with the show's producer, Jessica Brown.

Please sign the Oak Island TTL petition - promotional video

Help Solve Nova Scotia’s Oak Island Mystery!



THE BACKGROUND:

Dan Blankenship and his partners own 78% of Oak Island – an island consisting of 140 acres located a short distance off the south shore of Nova Scotia, Canada. Oak Island is known internationally as the location of the so-called Money Pit, a site of numerous excavations since 1795 to recover treasure believed to be buried there.

Former United States of America President Franklin D. Roosevelt and actors John Wayne and Errol Flynn are rumoured as being among those who have searched for the treasure. Although it has not yet been found, the majority consensus is that many years ago something of extreme importance was buried on Oak Island.

After 40 years of searching, Dan Blankenship believes he now has the keys to once and for all solve the Oak Island Mystery and uncover what he says will be an astounding find and of huge tourist interest.

Unfortunately, the Nova Scotia Government has been slow to renew the Treasure Trove License. It has now been more than eighteen months since Dan Blankenship and his financial partners made application to the Province. The government has delayed granting of a license. Without a license, Dan Blankenship and his partners are unable to renew their search. The march of time is an enemy to the fulfilling of 86 year old Dan Blankenship’s dream and his investors are understandably growing weary of delays.

Please help by signing a world-wide petition asking the Province of Nova Scotia to grant Dan Blankenship and his financial partners a Treasure Trove License for exploration. You CAN make a difference. Your expressions of support will be submitted to the Premier of Nova Scotia, the Hon. Darrell Dexter; to members of the Nova Scotia Legislature and to the government department responsible for issuing the Treasure Trove License.
