Unveiling the Truth: Were the Golden Plates Really Made of Tumbaga?In this intriguing episode of Word Radio, host Cardinal Ellis is joined by Jerry Grover, a metallurgist, geologist, and civil engineer, to delve into the fascinating topic of ancient metallurgy and the preservation of historical artifacts. The discussion centers around the controversial golden plates associated with the Book of Mormon. Critics have long argued that these plates, if they existed, would have corroded over time due to their composition. However, Grover presents compelling evidence to counter these claims, drawing on his extensive knowledge of metallurgy and historical examples. Grover explains that the golden plates were likely not made of pure gold, as pure gold would be too heavy and impractical for such use. Instead, he suggests they were composed of an alloy known as tumbaga, which is a mixture of gold, copper, and sometimes silver. This alloy was commonly used in ancient times because it provided the appearance of gold while being lighter and more durable. The key to its durability lies in a process called depletion gilding, where the surface is enriched with gold, making it resistant to corrosion. The conversation takes a deeper dive into the science behind metal corrosion, highlighting how certain conditions can protect metals from oxidizing. For instance, Grover points out that the design of the box in which the plates were stored played a crucial role in their preservation. The box was sealed and placed in a location that minimized exposure to water and soil, both of which can accelerate corrosion. Additionally, the plates were likely elevated within the box, preventing direct contact with potentially corrosive elements. Whether you're a believer, a skeptic, or simply curious about the past, this discussion provides valuable insights into the intersection of metallurgy and historical preservation. 🌟⏱️⏱️VIDEO CHAPTERS⏱️⏱️:00:00:00 - Introduction to Gold and Silver Plates00:02:39 - Debunking Myths About Golden Plates00:05:27 - Understanding Corrosion in Ancient Artifacts00:08:09 - Design and Preservation of Ancient Boxes00:10:59 - The Role of Tumbaga in Artifact Preservation00:13:56 - Archaeological Evidence of Tumbaga Use00:16:36 - Analyzing Metal Content in Ancient Artifacts00:19:34 - Debunking Corrosion Claims on Golden Plates00:21:55 - Non-Destructive Testing of Ancient AlloysTo Order Jonah's Book, "The Key to the Keystone" visit the following link and use coupon Code: WARDRADIO https://tinyurl.com/Key-to-the-KeystoneFor 10% off Plain and Precious Publishing Books, visit plainandpreciouspublishing.com and use Coupon Code: WARDRADIOFor a copy of Brad's "Dragon Theif" Book, visit: https://a.co/d/7QzqsZN⚡For free trial of Scripture Notes please visit the following link!: https://scripturenotes.com/?via=wardradioJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnmsAFGrFuGe0obW6tkEY6w/joinVisit us for this and more at: WardRadio.com#christian #mormon #exmormon #latter-daysaints #latterdaysaints #latterdays #bible #bookofmormon #archaeology #BYU #midnightmormons #jesus #jesuschrist #scriptures #sundayschool #biblestudy #christiancomedy #cardonellis #kwakuel #bradwitbeckTo support the channel:Venmo @WardRadio or visit: https://account.venmo.com/u/MidnightMormonsPaypal: paypal.me/@midnightmedia Amazon Wish List: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1AQLMTSMBM4DC?ref_=wl_shareCashApp: $WardRadioFollow us at:Instagram: @cardonellis @kwakuel @braderico @boho.birdyFacebook: @WardRadioWorldwideTwitter: WardRadioShowTikTok: WardRadioWorldwide

Dan Ellsworth is here... and he has some questions... and apparently, so do we.

Unravel the mystery of what happens after death according to early Christian theology. Contrary to popular belief, Hades was not synonymous with hellfire and brimstone but rather a complex spiritual realm where souls could continue their journey towards salvation.
