Look carefully at those "stone" balls. To me, they look concrete.
In part, their argument against their "stone spheres" being natural is based largely upon an explanation, which has been mangled by Mr. Osmanagic to point of being a parody that any conventional geologist would find somewhat amusing, of how the natural stone balls found in Mexican volcanic rocks are created. As discussed by Smith et al. (2001) and Stirling (1969), stone balls of Cerro Piedras Bola region of Mexico are natural objects, also found in volcanic rocks near Silver Cliff, Colorado; at Steens Mountain, Oregon; near Klondyke, Arizona; and in other volcanic regions. These objects are natural objects called "megaspherulites". Megaspherulites are spherulites, which are more than a few centimeters in diameter. Megaspherulites as large as 3.66 meters (11.2 feet) in diameter have been reported by Smith et al. (2001). The large stone balls of Ahualulco del Mercado, Jalisco state, Mexico, which Mr. Osmanagic incorrectly misidentified as being man-made, are documented by published research as being classic examples of megaspherulites as discussed by Stirling (1969) and briefly noted by Smith et al. (2001). Smith et al. (2000, 2001) also demonstrate that Mr. Osmanagic is completely wrong about there being "nothing in our current understanding of history that explains the presence of these stone balls". www.hallofmaat.com...,406316,406316#msg-406316
WHERE ARE VOLCANOS IN BOSNIA?

I don't mean to burst your bubble buddy, how can one claim such structure are nothing more than a natural formation, when one can certainly find discovered land plates, stones and land postures as the elevation of the pyramid proceeds to the top.
To claim that such a project is a fraud is nothing more than blunt speculation of those that do not wish for such project to become a success.
Some people on this thread love to debunk something, when they them self have never researched or verified the ongoing database of pictures and video footage or even stepped a foot in the area and than proceeded to verify the mass evidence of the pyramid associated resembled materials.
And how can those people debunk statements from very reputable Egyptian archeologists that have come to verify and examine the materials not just for one day but for many weeks before making any conclusions. And yet out of the blue, just bluntly we get these uneducated debunkers who will perceive their analogies far more intellectual than of those reputable archeologists.

Thanks for creating this thread, Imagir! I was just reading something about the Bosnian pyramid the other day, but I had no idea that there were several! I look forward to watching the videos.S&F
Oh! Thank you in advance, RamsOnTop, for translating the videos for us. I'm so jealous that you get a close up, first hand look at the terrain and got to dig and be part of the project. I would love to be involved in an archaeological dig.

Interesting debunking theory about the Stone Spheres... but...but
Could You please say...
WHERE ARE VOLCANOS IN BOSNIA?
Instead of being "thrown out of" volcanoes, as Mr. Osmanagic misstated, geologists explain the formation of both spherulites and megaspherulites by the crystallization (devitrification) of vitreous (glassy) rhyolitic volcanic material, after it has been erupted as pyroclastic flows and while these deposits cooled to create either vitrophyre or welded ash flow tuff. This explanation clearly states that this type of stone ball, megaspherulites, did not exist at time of the eruption and, thus, could not have been thrown out of a volcano during an eruption as incorrectly stated by Mr. Osmanagic.

Just wondering if you have tried comparing the pyramidal positioning with that of other similar sites . . .
