This date is wrong, Quote: Oak Island Tours eventually dissolved, and in February 2019, it was announced that a new partnership had been formed with a company called the "Michigan Group".[17]
If you look at reference 17, it does indeed give February 2019 as the date that the web page was posted. But the change in partnership had to be much older. It should be noted that the current website is a reconstruction of a previously expired and lost website. The TV show first aired in 2014 at which point the new partnership was fully formed and active. Also reference 17 says Quote: The treasure trove licence is in Mr. Tobias’ name, but the new group will be looking to transfer the licence, which is valid until July of 2008. <<< This strongly implies that the change in partnership happened prior to 2008. During a quick look I was unable to determine the correct date, so did not make any changes to the article.

Some mention needs to be made of several discoveries that add to the "mystery" of Oak Iasland. Here is a partial list of items that should be mentioned: 1. Discovery of European and Middle Eastern human bones from core drillings obtained below 90 foot depth. 2. Determination that the Triangle Swamp is historically young...about 400 years old, and contains within it several human constructed cobble stone paved areas. 3. Discovery of buried wood works at Smithe's Cove that pre-date any documented human activity. 4. Need commentary about the kind of workforce required to carry out the above mentioned discoveries.

I am moving this here for now for the record as the measurements are not sourced. Feel free to add these bits into the article's body if you can find the WP:RS for them. - Knowledgekid87 ( talk) 14:42, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
