Miners dig up 500-year-old shipwreck with $13 million in gold in Namibian desert

A shipwreck being excavated by miners recently offered up $13 million in gold and artifacts that are in good shape considering they've been under the ocean floor for 500 years. Miners have found the Portuguese shipwreck of the Bom Jesus , a ship that disappeared 500 years ago after departing from Lisbon and sailing to India back in 1533.
