Treasure hunters recover more than 60 pounds of gold from 157-year-old shipwreck off South Carolina coast
An expedition to bring back the remaining gold from a steamship that sank in 1857 off South Carolina in one of the nation's worst maritime disasters has recovered almost 1,000 ounces of gold. (1)
探险队从一艘沉没了的蒸汽船捞回几乎达1000盎司(相当于约28公斤)被遗留下的黄金,这艘船1857年在美南卡罗莱纳海域沉没,是美国历史上最惨痛的海上灾难事故。
The S.S. Central America was bringing gold back from the California when it sank in a hurricane claiming 425 lives. In addition, thousands of pounds of gold went to the bottom aboard the 280-foot, side-wheel steamship.
在1857年,这艘“中美洲号”蒸汽船从加利福尼亚运回黄金时遇到飓风而沉船,导致425名乘客死亡。同时,这艘280英尺的舷侧明轮蒸汽船上成千上万英镑的黄金也一同沉没。
About $50 million was recovered during expeditions to the wreck in the late 1980s and early 1990s before legal disputes shut down the operation.
在上世纪80年代末和90年代初对残骸的探险总共打捞了约5000万美元,后来由于法律纠纷而终止。
'While we weren't planning to recover gold so quickly, it did confirm that the site has not been disturbed since it was last visited in 1991 and there is gold remaining,' said Mark Gordon, Odyssey's president and chief operating officer.
“虽然我们并没有计划如此快地进行打捞,但确实可以肯定遗址自从1991年一直没有受到破坏,黄金还在那里。”Odyssey首席营运官马克葛登说,
'We know that the wreck was only partially excavated, only about five per cent of the site,' Gordon said.
“我们只发掘了部分残骸,只是遗址的5%,”葛登说。
There may be up to $86 million of gold still lying on the ship.
船内仍然有高达八千六百万美元价值的黄金。
