African Treasure is a 1952 American film. It was the seventh in the 12-film Bomba, the Jungle Boy series.[1][2]

Plot

Two unscrupulous geologists force the locals to work in a hidden diamond mine. Bomba, who narrowly avoids being buried alive, rescues them and defeats the villains. Bomba demonstrates some communication skills as a jungle drummer (an ability that is used in all the movies that follow).

There is also some underwater action in this movie and a cameo by Woody Strode.[3]
