Shipwreck!

A cool story from the BBC: A sunken ship believed to carry over US$15 million in gold is located in the Magellan Straits off the coast of Argentina.
    The cargo belonged to Argentine mining companies Cerro Vanguardia and Minera Triton and was on its way from mines in southern Argentina to Europe. The boat sank in heavy seas in mysterious circumstances in January.
One thing is still unclear: is the gold still on board?
