Mr Malcolm Fabian, a prospector and long-time resident (50+ years?) of
Mount Barker, South Australia, claims to have made a most remarkable
discovery.  He holds that a large mining community existed in his
area, from 6000 to 2500 years ago, after which period it vanished. The
ancient miners mined gold near Mount Barker, and tin in the lakes
several kilometres away, where the Murray river met the ocean. There
are still many traces left, of their existence, according to him. The
tin that was mined was the mainstay of the Bronze Age – and the ending
of the Bronze Age coincided with the disappearance of the mining
community, although their descendants continued to remain in the
area.  They are to this day called the Per-amon-gk people, which in
ancient Egyptian mean Sons of the Living God. He was prepared to show
anyone interested in his findings – this was his bold proclamation in
the Usenet groups, which I found irresistible.


So I motored down to his place in Mount Barker, and spent several
hours with him.


The report below is a summary of the findings.



On 4th Jan 2010, I met Malcolm near his official dwelling in Mount
Barker, and after mutual courtesies he listed out the following main
points relating to his discoveries and claims:



1. The third peak (and perhaps the second) of Mount Barker (visible to
all around) was not natural; it was definitely man-made.  The spaces
involved in the distances between the peaks matched the spaces between
the pyramids in Egypt.  In Egypt they used the spaces between the
pyramids, and their heights, to ascertain once again the land
boundaries after the Nile’s flooding. So, to get fixes upon siting
issues in the area  ,the creation of the third peak took place, so
that the same formulas could work here.



2. The main administrative centre of the mining community was centred
on what is now known as Wedding Cake Hill.  According to Malcolm,
Nature could not have formed the Wedding Cake Hill at the time the
white settlers arrived.  It was artificially made – landscaping had
levelled the natural features. Who had done that?  Today it was
difficult to make out the landscaping from a time perspective, but
some whimsical guy with knowledge of architecture, had made a house
looking like a wedding-cake on that hill, to suit the terrain.



3. The earliest buildings of the white settlers around 1850-60 used
red-pink stone nowhere else found in the nearby region.  Those stones
are well-cut, though of inferior quality.  They could well have been
the ballast for the ships to their incoming journey, being rejects
from the mines in the West.  He would show me the stones, and more
importantly, the dates of the construction of the buildings.



4. Malcolm had found one remnant of an iron tool from that mining
period.  He would show them to me.  Iron was around those days, and
used for mining, being harder than bronze.



5. The raw and sharp nature of the quartz found throughout in the area
around the mines indicated past mining activity.  Iron leaching had
also taken place, and that was evident.



6. The main output from the region was tin, mined at the mouth of the
Murray where there was now a shallow lake instead of a delta.  This
was several kilometres away.  Evidence for this was the bitumen found
there.  Malcolm said that bitumen (gooey stuff) occurred naturally to
this day in Iraq.  For thousands of years, they have been making rafts
there, using bitumen and reeds – the bitumen acts as a waterproof
seal.  Bitumen, natural bitumen, has not been found in this region, so
one may assume it was imported.  The theory is that reed rafts similar
to the ones in Iraq were used to mine the tin.  The sand (that used to
be there in the now-shallow lake, brought down by the Murray, was put
on those rafts and then deposited in the flowing currents of the
Murray.  The lighter sands would be sluiced off, and the heavier and
darker ore would remain.  So that was the source of all the tin that
would be used with copper throughout the Bronze Age.  Malcolm said
that the earliest oil well in Australia was dug in that region, as the
presence of the bitumen excited the oilmen. However, no oil was found
there.





7. The Turin document is the oldest map that is still in existence.
It shows the existence of a gold mine.  It is presumed by the
authorities that this mine exists in Egypt.  Malcolm says that there
is no evidence for its physical existence in Egypt.  However, that old
map has certain features that match with the gold mine near Mount
Barker.  He would show me the Turin map in the library using Internet
the next day, and show me the gold mine, and also the local features.
I said that I would be there, with my camera.

Malcolm had set out his findings for me to see.  I am attaching the
photos of the objects he showed me, with notes.

note from Kanga

rule one , never form an opinionuntil you have examined ALL the
evidences, and it will take several days to walk the site at least ,
but  even a few hours can confirm the basics , genuine inquiries
always welcome

The mine site seen near Mount Barker in south australia matches the
Turin Papyrus Gold mine map EXACTLY

In every tiny detail , and more than you could imagine once on the
site its self explanatory once you see the site
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&sa=N&tab=gw&q=turin%20papyrus%20gold%20mine

There is literally mountains of evidence for those who care to look,
and more found every day
