Billion-dollar Robinson Crusoe treasure discovered by robot

BiscuitBarrel sez, "A Chilean salvage company has located a famed buried treasure on the island that inspired Robinson Crusoe. The treasure is said to contain 600 barrels of gold looted from the Incan empire in the 16th century."

A robotic treasure hunter has laid claim to the find of the century, on the very archipelago that inspired the novel Robinson Crusoe…

By some estimates the haul would include 800 barrels of gold ingots, silver pieces, gems and other riches worth up to $10 billion. Naturally, the promise of such fabulous wealth has attracted scores or treasure hunters to the island in the past.
