I believe Ron Wyatt’s account and video where they report EXACTLY where the Ark WAS FOUND.
It was placed in a grotto (crypt) directly underneath where Jesus was crucified....
So that when the earthquake struck, and the ground split open,
Jesus Blood ran straight down to it and was deposited on the mercy seat... right where it needed to be.
They know right where the Ark is right now, and they left it there until they need it.
Correct
