These cross at one or more intervals (indicating an “aura”
of one or more rings) and then again finally cross over the
source. With a tape-measure on the ground, I record the
radius of the innermost ring, which I find to be related to
the intensity of the source. All the data to be presented
concern this measurement, and are given in inches rather
than centimetres.
Ormus is the name now given to a series of
extraordinary elementary substances, also known as
“White Gold”. They are thought to be mainly precious

way as to render them non-metallic, chemically non-
reactive and possibly super-conductive4.

Quantum tunneling of ormus

The ormus used here was an alkaline precipitate from

Dead Sea salt, the bulk of which is probably magnesium
hydroxide. Significantly the original Dead Sea salt showed
no dowsable activity. The fact that ormus could be dowsed
in this way offered a possibility to test for its claimed
ability to “quantum tunnel” through a solid barrier. Two
