Geocache Description:

Alchemy noun al·che·my \ˈal-kə-mē\

A medieval chemical science and speculative philosophy aiming to discover the means to trans mutate base metals into gold, a universal cure for disease, and the a means of indefinitely prolonging life.


Iron is one of the most abundant elements in the known universe. The metal was widely used by the Asian, African and European civilizations. Iron symbolizes the male energy and is connected to physical power, aggression, growth, dependence and protection. It promotes emotions such as lust, confidence, courage, strength, stamina and resilience. It is considered to be the most ‘human’ metal and so, is distrusted by the ethereal entities and spirits.

Iron is one of the seven metals of alchemy (gold, silver, mercury, copper, lead, iron, and tin). The symbol for iron was also used to represent the planet Mars in astrology.  

Since iron is one of the seven planetary metals of Alchemy, I made this a puzzle cache in my series.  Enjoy and Good Hunting!

Bonus! I have created a home-made geocoin prize to cache hunters who find all five geocaches representing the sevel planetary metals of alchemy: lead, tin, iron, mercury, copper, silver, and gold.

This is a home-made geocoin made from cast resin and hand painted. You can make it a trackable geocoin through the third-party service www.geotrackable.org service (it won't be trackable on geocaching.com). To earn one: 1) Find and sign the logs for the seven geocaches listed above; 2) Enter the correct coordinates for all seven in the geochecker +; and 3) Send the geocoin passphrases the Geochecker+ will give you to me via Geocaching.com's message service. I'll verify you have found and logged a find on all seven and send a prize geocoin to you.

NOTE: This prize geocoin is optional. All you need to do to log a find is find and sign the log. This is merely a bonus.
