Similar techniques are used today when extracting gold. Michael will share as much information as possible about this strange anomaly, including ancient knowledge passed down by the wisdom keepers and elders of South Africa, and channelled information from various channellers who have visited the site. Judging by the size of this footprint, the being it belonged to would have to have been 7 to 10 metres tall. Dean will share his wisdom on the other strange anomalies around the site, including a huge marker stone that is so much more than what meets the eye.

This is the south-western tip of Africa, the Divine Tuning Fork where we resonate with this great energy and get in tune!
