"Spain’s Foreign Ministry has made a formal contact with Britain to seek clarification on the question of the Odyssey Marine Exploration treasure haul that was flown out from Gibraltar to Florida almost a fortnight ago."

There is much more than treasure underneath all of this. The issues are between the UK and Spain concerning Gibraltar and it's territorial waters. Odyssey Marine has found itself in the center of this and has kept a low profile since announcing a record treasure haul on May 18th, 2007. On that date Odyssey Marine unveiled a potential $500Mil find in the Atlantic some say was the wreck of the Merchant Royal. There is much more treasure to recover but it is doubtful that OMR will return to the wreck until the political storms have cleared.
