Adam’s Treasure, or the Lost Adams Diggings, is a fantastic tale of lost gold buried in the New Mexico desert. It is the story of gold prospector Adams, and his group of miners, who had travelled to a canyon, with a stream that had egg-sized chunks of gold. Most of the group was massacred, but not before amassing a huge treasure trove of buried gold in the area. The story of the lost gold has intrigued people for nearly two hundred years.
