Noahs Ark researchers discover new evidence of…
A staff investigating a boat-shaped formation in japanese Turkey says new evidence is strengthening its case that the location may maintain the stays of Noah’s Ark.
“In archaeology, you deal with probabilities, and we’re inching towards where we believe we will have confirmation this winter after our soil analysis is done with Sivas University, who’s our partner in this,” Noah’s Ark Scans founder Andrew Jones told “Saturday in America.”
The focus of the investigation is the Durupınar formation, an roughly 538-foot-long geological construction close to Mount Ararat. Its form and proximity to the area recognized in the biblical account have fascinated Ark hunters for a long time.
The boat-shaped formation was first found in 1959 and has long-drawn hypothesis over a doable connection to Noah’s Ark.
Critics have maintained that the formation is of course occurring, but Jones said current drilling, soil sampling and ground-penetrating radar have given his staff new causes to problem that conclusion.
“They’ve criticized in the past, saying all those scans you can interpret different ways, ‘This is a solid mass of rock, a syncline or a block of bedrock,’” Jones said. “Well, we’ve core drilled… over 12 locations. We did not find bedrock at all.”

Jones said the drilling uncovered wealthy black soil, which researchers plan to take a look at for natural content this winter at Ankara University.
“Noah’s Ark was a giant wooden boat, according to the Bible,” he said.
“As wood decays, you’re gonna find elevated organic matter. This year, as we drilled into the formation, we did not find a solid rock layer, like the critics said. But we did find large deposits of highly rich black soil that has hopefully high organics.”
The researchers hope the analysis will help decide whether or not there are indicators of human exercise or supplies constant with decayed wooden beneath the formation.

Jones also pointed to a 2024 soil survey that he said contained thrice more natural matter inside the boat-shaped formation than samples collected just exterior it.
