About the Blue Water Ventures Santa Margarita Pearl Collection:

In June 2007, a lead lined box containing thousands of natural pearls was found on the wreck site of the Santa Margarita (a Spanish galleon that sank in 1622). Following this discovery, the collection was analyzed by GIA (Gemological Institute of America) and the report is available at: http://www.bwvint.com/documents/pearls/giapearlreport.html
