An open UNDR Treasure Hunting Kit with all its contents laid out

Why doesn't anybody know what's in their land?

You learn the house and the yard and which neighbor has the good ladder, and never once what any of it is actually made of.

Your land has been holding out on you.

We hadn't thought to ask either, until now.

Results from a Real Report

Precious metals

Silver 62 ppm
Gold 4 ppm
Platinum 0 ppm

Ppm means parts per million. Most soil carries gold at around 0.01 ppm or less. This sample came back at 4—roughly 400 times higher.

100% Curiosity Guarantee

If your report doesn't tell you something about your sample you didn't already know, email us and we'll refund it.

Tested in Redding, California

Every sample is analyzed in our own lab by us, not shipped off to a third party.

Every number shows its work

Lab-grade instruments and recognized methods, and each result comes with its own detection limit and margin of error.

"Do I have gold?"

The report is your guide.

The opening page of an UNDR land sample report An UNDR report plotting every element against the typical range for soil An UNDR report naming the sample's soil type and where that ground is common A page from an UNDR report showing a precious metals breakdown An UNDR report showing a gold reading with its range and margin of error An UNDR report comparing a sample's readings to well-known regions A page from an UNDR report explaining a single element in plain English

What comes back isn't a lab printout. It's a fun report that goes through your sample element by element, in plain English: what each one is, whether it's potentially monetizable or toxic, and what makes it interesting. Charts you can actually read.

The Treasure Hunting Kit screens for 8 precious metals including gold, silver, and platinum—50+ elements in all.

"What would I even do if I found something?"

Everybody asks, so we put the guide in the report.

Some may choose to sell their land, collect royalties, or extract it themselves. Regardless, you won't be figuring it out alone—the report points you to who to talk to and what to ask.

"As a former science teacher, I absolutely loved seeing the report showing all of the different elements and minerals in my soil."

Valerie, verified buyer

We built this because

we had to know.

Carson and Mari, founders of UNDR CO

We're Carson and Mari. Last year, we got curious about what was in our own land, and it turned out that finding out took either a lot of money, a job in the industry, or the patience to work through a stack of forms nobody wrote with a homeowner in mind.

So we built the lab. Every sample is analyzed here in the United States, by us—not shipped off to a third party.

Carson is a veteran with a Master's Degree from Harvard University and a B.S. from the US Air Force Academy. Mari has a J.D. from Harvard University and a B.A. from Tufts University.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will UNDR work in my yard?

Yes. UNDR tests are designed to analyze typical soil material from any geographic or geological region. This includes dense clay soils, sandy areas, rich fertile fields, dry dusty lands and everything in between. See our Sampling Instructions for spots people generally test based on what they are looking for.

How accurate are the results?

Very, and we show you the math. This isn't a color-changing test strip. Your sample is prepared and run on commercial lab-grade instruments using industry-recognized analytical methods, US government-certified reference materials, and for most elements, we can pick up differences down to few parts per million. Every result in your report comes with its own detection limit and margin of error, so you're never guessing how solid a given number is. See a sample report to get a feel for the ranges you'll see.

When will I get my results?

Within 3-5 business days of receiving your sample, but often sooner. We'll post your results to your UNDR account portal as soon as they're ready and send you an email notification (make sure to check your spam folder).

What should I do if my report shows precious metals, oil or contamination?

UNDR kits are a fun and educational first step in understanding your land. In addition to data about your land samples, your report will include suggestions for reputable resources and ways to find professionals to advise on next steps.

UNDR provides an informational analysis of your specific soil sample only. Results are educational and do not constitute professional geological, environmental, legal, health, or safety advice. UNDR does not determine the presence of economically recoverable deposits, contamination, regulatory compliance, health risks, or property conditions. Consult qualified professionals, including geologists, environmental consultants, and legal advisors, before making any decisions regarding your property.

What makes an UNDR report different from a traditional soil test?

Traditional soil tests are built for agriculture and focus on a small set of nutrients. They tell farmers what to fertilize—not homeowners what they should know.

UNDR reports go much further—testing for 50+ elements in every kit (over 90 elements and substances with UNDR Premium) and turning complex data into a clear, engaging, and easy-to-understand visual experience. Instead of just numbers, you get real insight into what’s in your soil sample and why you should care.

Some people wonder.
Some people find out.
