A recent study of Shroud has reportedly found evidence that the object has elements of clay and limestone which are particular to the Jerusalem region. Also, miniscule blood samples are said to be signs of physical wounds...

From Fox: Researchers make new finding on Turin Shroud that many believe was Christ's burial cloth: 'Mysteries of God'
I went to this article, but was thwarted by the old "sign up" or you can't read it... (like you have to have my name to sell or I can't be told 'the news.')
I went to Google and found links to articles from 1986 to 2002... no help...
I broke down ad asked Brave's search "AI" which apparently can access more than a mere human and found these offered as facts....
Recent research has shed new light on the age and authenticity of the Turin Shroud, a linen cloth bearing the image of a man who appears to have suffered physical trauma consistent with crucifixion. The findings suggest that the Shroud may date back to the 1st century AD, around the time of Jesus Christ.
Wide-Angle X-ray Scattering Analysis
Italian researchers from the Institute of Crystallography used a new method called Wide-Angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS) to analyze a small sample of the Shroud’s linen. Their results showed a compatibility with another linen sample dated to A.D. 55-74, suggesting that the Shroud could indeed be 2,000 years old. The researchers noted that their findings would only be valid if the Shroud had been kept under specific conditions (temperatures between 20-22.5°C and relative humidity of 55-75%) for much of its history.
X-ray Analysis of Linen Threads
Another study used X-rays to inspect linen threads from the Shroud, tracing its origin all the way back to the time of Jesus. This analysis contradicts earlier findings dating the Shroud to the Middle Ages.
Blood Analysis
A new analysis of blood samples from the Shroud, conducted by an engineer from the University of Padua, found tiny blood particles showing signs of organ failure, trauma, disease, and radiation. The presence of earth materials typically found in Jerusalem, such as clay and limestone, suggests that the Shroud may have originated in the region.
Conclusion
While the findings are intriguing, they are not without controversy. Some experts have questioned the methodology and conclusions of these studies, citing the possibility of contamination or alternative explanations for the blood and linen samples. Further research and verification are needed to confirm the accuracy of these new findings. Nonetheless, these studies have reignited the debate over the Shroud’s authenticity and potential connection to Jesus Christ.

What is the significance of the presence of jerusalem earth materials in the blood samples?
Based on the provided search results, the presence of Jerusalem earth materials such as clay and limestone in the blood samples from the Shroud of Turin suggests a possible origin of the Shroud in the region of Jerusalem. This finding is significant because it aligns with biblical accounts and historical records that associate the Field of Blood (Akeldama) with Jerusalem.
According to the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 1:18-19), Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus’ twelve apostles, purchased a field with the reward money he received for betraying Jesus and died there, his body bursting open and spilling his entrails. The field was subsequently known as the Field of Blood (Hakeldama).
The presence of Jerusalem earth materials in the blood samples may indicate that the bloodstains on the Shroud originated from this location, potentially linking the Shroud to the events surrounding Judas’ death and the Field of Blood. This finding could support the theory that the Shroud is authentic and dates back to the 1st century AD, around the time of Jesus Christ.
However, it is essential to note that the significance of this finding relies on the accuracy and reliability of the blood sample analysis and the interpretation of the results. Further research and verification are necessary to confirm the authenticity of the Shroud and the Jerusalem earth materials in the blood samples.
I apologize for not finding an attributable source, and my warning that "AI" is far from infallible... but at least it's something around which we might start a conversation.
