I’ve heard that folks have recently been trying to recover that bomb. It contains tens of millions of dollars worth of nuclear material (lithium-6 deuteride solid fuel and a multi-ton uranium tamper; the plutonium pit was removed). Unfortunately (or fortunately) the exact location of the bomb has been lost to history. Recovery may be dangerous. In the case of the bomb that was recovered only one safety was still working.

I can imagine that digging for it would be a risky venture.....
