THESIS: ALPINE LAKES WERE MINES OF
PREHISTORY
The Alpine lakes were mines of prehistoric times
1. because some Alpine lakes are incredibly deep, but hardly
wide
2. because not all valleys have Alpine lakes
3. because the Alps have hardly any minerals, but the
mountains ranges on other continents have many
4. because the Alps have many lakes, but other mountain
ranges in Asia and in "America" have almost NO lakes.
Hello,
I looked up the depth figures, you can use Wikipedia for
this basic data. And it turned out that the narrow Lake
Maggiore is the deepest lake (372m), then comes Lake Garda
(346), and the large Lake Geneva is only third in depth
(310m), and the tiny King Lake (Königssee) in Germany is a
total surprise with a depth of 190m. The narrow lakes Lake
Zug (198m), Lake Lucerne (214m), Lake Thun (217m) and Lake
Brienz (261m) also seem absolutely abnormally deep (Swiss
munitions are dumped deep there and nobody wants to bring
them up, so this was the impetus for talking about the depth
of the lakes). And in Austria: the relatively small lakes
Attersee (169m deep) and Traunsee (191m deep) also seem
absolutely abnormally deep.
Informant Paul Blaser from Beatenberg (on Lake Thun) gave me
the information today, April 13, 2025, that something cannot
be right, that
1. Other existences of prehistoric times may have already
extracted minerals here and THAT is why the Alps NO longer
have large mineral deposits.
2 And now comes my conclusion: If the glaciers had “scooped
out” these lakes, then ALL Alpine valleys should have such
Alpine lakes, but they don't.
3. It is now also clear why the Alps have almost no
minerals, but the other large mountain ranges in Asia and
“America” do: the minerals in the Alps were “harvested” in
an earlier epoch.
4. Moreover, the great mountain ranges in Asia and “America”
hardly have this large number of such lakes in the
mountains.
Therefore, my suspicion hardens more and more: The alpine
lakes are mines of the prehistory of another civilization -
and in Africa, “America”, and Asia this prehistoric
civilization was apparently not present, the minerals are
still there and are now being consumed by our civilization.
