01 / What it finds

What lies beneath.

Possible satellite-derived indicators. Not direct detection or confirmation.

Conceptual illustration of an underground cavity—not a field result.

Underground voids

Possible traces associated with cavities or underground spaces—not confirmation of a void.

Conceptual illustration of buried masonry—not a field result.

Buried structures

Satellite-derived indicators that may be associated with buried structures and warrant further investigation.

Conceptual illustration of mineral-bearing rock—not a field result.

Mineralized areas

Patterns believed to be associated with mineralized areas—not direct metal detection or mineral identification.

Conceptual illustration of layered and disturbed ground—not a field result.

Ground disturbances

Cut-and-fill areas, settlement, and variations between compacted and loosened soil.

Conceptual 3D illustrations—not scans, field results or reconstructions of the documented sites.

06 / About SHAMAL

Read the ground. Look further.

SHAMAL is a remote-sensing application for ground intelligence and subsurface exploration that analyses satellite data and imagery to identify traces believed to be associated with underground voids, buried structures, mineralized areas, and disturbances in the soil or ground.

Rather than detecting voids or metals directly, it interprets possible indicators of subsurface features and changes in ground conditions.

Its intended applications include investigating cut-and-fill areas, ground settlement, and variations in soil compaction, including compacted and loosened soil.

The SHAMAL team documents its findings and gathers supporting evidence to explain the patterns identified, helping users assess areas of interest and guide further investigation.

Field evidence / 01 · Syria

The Hidden Passage

A zig-zag underground tunnel, 3 m deep, with an east–west / west–east route repeated three times.

Location, depth and route are owner-provided. The map provides illustrative dry rural terrain in Syria selected for visual resemblance, not the exact tunnel site. Exact site coordinates have not been provided. This record does not by itself establish detection accuracy.

Field evidence / 02 · Syria

The Silent Chamber

A tomb and graves reported at a depth of 7 m in Syria.

Findings, depth and location in Syria are owner-provided. The map is illustrative—not the actual tomb, graves or scan location. Its pale, dry terrain was selected for visual resemblance only. This record does not by itself establish detection accuracy.

Field evidence / 03 · Saudi Arabia

The Motherload

A mineralized-ground finding reported by the owner in the Saudi desert near Jordan’s southern border. This record combines the supplied SHAMAL scan, a photograph of the rock sample and a silent field video.

The Motherload is a presentation name. The finding and reported region are owner-provided; no exact site coordinates, depth or laboratory assay were supplied. Gold content has not been independently verified. The map shows an illustrative dark, rocky terrain analogue selected for visual resemblance, not the scan or sample location. Similar appearance does not establish matching geology or mineral content. This record does not by itself establish detection accuracy.

Field evidence / 04 · Jordan

The Desert Echo

A second mineralized-ground finding reported by the owner in southern Jordan, documented with a SHAMAL scan and a silent field video.

The Desert Echo is a presentation name. The finding and southern-Jordan region are owner-provided; no exact site coordinates, depth or laboratory assay were supplied. Gold content has not been independently verified. The map shows an illustrative pale, rugged terrain analogue selected for visual resemblance, not the scan location. Similar appearance does not establish matching geology or mineral content. This record does not by itself establish detection accuracy.
