Ice cores record the pollution from mining and smelting operations in the early Americas.
http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2015/02/ice-core-suggests-humans-damaged-atmosphere-long-industrial-revolutionThis for me is the biggest nail in the coffin for the validity of the Book of Mormon.
Taken from a comment about this article from another website:
"You would think all that Book of Mormon metallurgy including the manufacture of 2 million swords would leave some trace of pollution in the ice cores.
It's one thing to argue that the archeological evidence is there and we just haven't found it yet. But to have a pristine ice core with no pollution in the layers where there should be pollution is pretty damning if you ask me."
It will be interesting to see what else scientists find as they continue to study the secrets recorded in these ice cores. Science is awesome.
