During the Second World War, the Japanese took control of the
Philippines, driving the United States forces from the islands.
While in control the Japanese confiscated and stockpiled immense
amounts of gold and other treasures and hid the plunder in caves,
vaults, and private homes throughout the Philippines while awaiting
shipment to Japan.
Most of that treasure never reached Japan. In the sixty-five years
since then, many treasure hunters have roamed the islands searching
for the bounty. Although some of the riches has been found, the
majority still remains hidden throughout the islands.
"Mindanao Gold" is the story of a group of treasure hunters in
search of that hidden treasure. The adventure takes two energetic
young miners from the safe confines of Elko, Nevada, to the
treacherous jungles on the island of Mindanao. Follow them as they
attempt to find and retrieve the gold and escape dangerous Muslim
bandits. What price will they pay in their quest for the gold?
