300 Million Year Old Machinery Found In Russia July 20, 2013 altering-perspectives/2013/07/300-million-year-old-machinery Russian sources are reporting that a 300 million year old piece of aluminum machinery has been found in Vladivostok. Knowing that the coal deposits of this region date 300 million years back, Russian experts inferred that the metal detail found in these deposits must be an age-mate of the coal. Experts say a gear rail appears to be manufactured and not the result of natural forces. The find was very much like a toothed metal rail, created artificially. Nowadays, finding a strange artifact in coal is a relatively frequent occurrence. The first discovery of this sort was made in 1851 when the workers in one of the Massachusetts mines extracted a zinc silver-incrusted vase from a block of unmined coal which dated all the way back to the Cambrian era which was approximately 500 million years ago. Not so long ago in Russia a mechanical device was found in volcanic rock which was dated 400 million years before the current era (B.C.E). The most ancient vase on Earth was discovered in 1851 in Massachusetts when blasting in the quarry. It is a silver-zinc vase inlaid with fine silver in the form of the vine. The age of this vase, according to the rock in which it was found, is 534 million years old. Another strange artifact that was found in coal is the iron pot. It was found in 1912 in Oklahoma in a piece of coal with an estimated age of 312 million years.
