Norman Scott of Expeditions Unlimited said the 13 day expedition on Victoria Peak inside White Sands Missile Range found no trace of gold silver or artifacts. He noted the claimants were sincere but there is no evidence to confirm the legendary treasure. The operation cost about 83000 and the Army said three prior hunts in 16 years also failed.
