ORMUS is the name given to the mysterious white powder discovered by David Hudson in the late 1970’s, which he subsequently devoted his life, and many millions of dollars trying to research and market. During his research he discovered that the power he found whilst prospecting for gold had some very strange anomalous properties, not the least of which was the fact that it appeared to be invisible to all forms of modern analysis. In effect he seemed to have discovered an entirely new class of mineral. But Hudson went further and began drawing parallels with his powder and the work of the ancient alchemists. He believed that this exotic substance was the legendary Philosophers Stone, the mythical prize of alchemical enquiry that could turn base metals into gold, cure any illness, and elevate the soul of man to enlightenment.
