[narrator] For more than
500 years,

treasure hunters have scoured
the American West...

for a $3 billion fortune...

of Aztec gold.

Now...

the most unlikely person...

may have found it.

Bring it on.

[narrator] Duane Ollinger
made his money
on the Texas oil fields.

[Duane] Here's the bad boy
right here.

I just wanna make sure
that [bleep] works. [chuckles]

[narrator] Sixteen years ago,
he purchased a 160-acre ranch,

believing it to be where
the Aztecs hid their treasure,

but the property is riddled
with unexplained phenomenon.

-[man1] What the [bleep]
is that? [bleep]
-[man 2] What is that?

[narrator] Undeterred,
Duane and his son, Chad,

are determined to find
the cache of gold.

[Chad] Here we go. This is it.

We're gonna find that
[bleep] cavern today, boys.

[narrator] Located
in an underground cavern
called the Keyhole Chamber...

If we dig down, I think
we'll find the tunnel.

[narrator] ...Chad and Duane
have made attempts to enter
the cavern from above...

So we're about
at 80 foot right now,
and hopefully we'll drop

into that underground
cavern soon.

[narrator] ...and below.

-[Chad] It's tight, yeah?
-Yeah.

[narrator] But the land...

keeps fighting back.

-[low rumbling]
-Now, Chad.

[rocks crashing]

Every time you dig out here,
something happens.

What the hell is going on?

Every time.

[woman] We've always believed
that gold is cursed.

And everybody
that's gotten around it

has got sick or died.

It's not meant to be...

found.

It's coming towards you.
It's in the hole.

[narrator] Despite
the dangers,

[indistinct]

[narrator] ...Chad and Duane
refuse to surrender.

[man] There's actually
flowing water underneath us
in a cave system.

[Duane] We're gonna figure out
where it's going.

Let's go.

[narrator] Now, after months
of searching...

Chad is exploring
their most-promising lead yet,

an underwater cavern
that he believes is a pathway

leading into
the Keyhole Chamber.

All he has to do now...

is get inside.

[man] They've been
down there a while.

They have been
down there a while.

It's been 30 minutes since
Chad and Wendell have been

down inside this
underwater cavern.

It's nerve racking.

If something happens,
there's nothing we can do
about it.

[heavy breathing]

I scuba dive. But cave diving,
I draw the line.

It's... that ain't for me.

It's one of the most
dangerous things that
you can possibly do.

You get turned around,
you could die ten foot
from the entrance.

That's how much Chad
wants to find this gold.

He's willing to risk his life
to do it.

[exhaling strenuously]

[bleep] Wow.

[bleep] yeah.

[both laughing]

[Chad] Holy [bleep]!

This is the cave.

That could house
a whole civilization.

[Wendell] This has to lead
back at the ranch.

Oh, my God!

[bleep] wild!

-[both chuckle]
-Whoo!

[Josh] There they go.
There they go.

-We [bleep] found it, man.
-[Josh] What?

We found it, the [bleep] cave,

way back there,
all the way towards the ranch.

-It opens up, like, huge.
-[Josh] Wow.

There was a couple of spots
that were super tight,

and then it opened up
into this, like, big cavern.

-Big, big cave system?
-[Chad] [bleep] yeah.

It goes way back in there.

That's frigging amazing.

Look at this.

[Josh] Holy crap!

-You found this in the cave?
-[chuckling] Yeah.

[Josh] Oh, my God.
Look at that arrowhead.

Chad, I can't believe this.

[chuckles] [bleep] wild, man.

We believed, for years,
that underneath the ranch
is a tunnel system

that leads to a cache
of treasure.

And to finally see evidence
with my own eyes

that people were living
in this these...
these underground tunnels,

I mean, this is [bleep] huge.

I mean, it kind of takes
your breath away.

This opening,
it's, like, wild.

It's amazing, man.

I mean, this is so powerful.

We are so close to finding
that Aztec gold now.

This could be it.
I really think this is it.

-[Duane] Eric?
How're you doing?
-[Chad] Hey, how's it going?

-[Eric] Good. Good.
-[Chad] Eric's back.

[narrator] A few days after
diving into the cavern,

Chad is back on the ranch

updating the team
on his findings.

Chad, what did you find
down in there?

So, I dove
into this small entrance,
and then it...

kind of opened up
into a bigger cavern.

Wow.

[Chad] I got a video of it
right here. Look at this.

-[Charlie] Man, look at you
right here.
-[Chad] Yeah.

[Charlie] How are you fitting
through that?

Some of them are so tight
that I could just barely fit
my body through.

It's like a series of caverns
one after another.

It'd get really tight
for a while, and then
it opened up.

So you follow it
all the way up...

and then you see
this surface water.

We reached...

And it was, like,
this big old cavern,
like... like, Goonies style.

-Yeah, it's huge.
-Yeah.

You could drive
a semi-truck through them.

[narrator] The chamber
Chad uncovered
stretches 20-feet wide

with a vaulted ceiling
over 15-feet tall,

proving that this part
of the cavern system

was large enough
for people to live inside of.

It also proves that
similar large chambers

could exist throughout
the sprawling cavern system

leading to
the Keyhole Chamber.

[Chad chuckling]
That's [bleep] wild.

And then into the back
of the cavern,

I started seeing
these little shards.

[Wendell] Oh, look at that.

[Chad] Wow.

See, it has the lines on it.

[James] That's all
pottery shards, Chad.

That's interesting
by the distribution
of those pottery shards

that you can see
on your camera right there.

There's no way that
all these different shards

-would have washed
right into that location.
-[Chad] Right.

It would have been spread
over a much greater distance,

you know, something like
you see on the shore

or beaches, you know?

I think those shards
were dropped there.

Really?

And that's not
the only stuff I found.

Take a look at this.

Wow, that's an amazing
projectile point.

The good thing is,
we have the neck
so we can even date it.

-[Chad] Really?
-[James] Yeah.

Based on the corner notches
and the size of this,

my guess is this is anywhere

between 500 and...

maybe 1,000 years old.

And look at this.
So, it was incorrectly cut.

It was broken.

What happens?
Can't use it. What do you do?

-Throw it away. Right.
-[James] Throw it away.

So this is telling me what?

It's telling me that
it was worked down there.

So, you know what that means.

That means,
at one point in time, that...

that... that cavern was dry.

[James] Exactly.

Wow.

[narrator] If James
is correct,

and the cavern system
was once dry,

it is evidence that humans
were living

and traversing
throughout the underground.

This matches what
we'd expect to find,

if this was the ancient
Aztec homeland.

The cave would have
provided shelter,

and at some point,
the people left

and the cave was inundated
with water.

-Maybe to hide
their treasure.
-Wow.

So these artifacts are proof

that there was a civilization

living down in this cavern.

That's absolutely amazing.

I think we may very well
have found the entrance
to the Keyhole Chamber

-that we've been looking for.
-Hell, yeah.

This is the link
we're looking for.

[Duane] This is the link
we're looking for.

Was all that pottery
right down below you?

Yeah, it was in with, like,
a three-foot radius,
all in that area.

[narrator] After diving
the underwater cave,

Chad and the team
have uncovered evidence

suggesting people
were inhabiting

an underground tunnel system

below the ranch.

So these artifacts are proof

that there was a civilization
living here.

[narrator] They now have proof
of human activity

in two crucial locations,

at the entrance
to the flooded cavern,

and at the Bead Site,

which sits on the other end

of the two-mile long
cavern system

at the tail end
of the Keyhole Chamber.

So we have found artifacts
at the Bead Site,

and that's where
this underwater
cavern system starts.

And now, we found them
at the other end as well.

So human beings
could have been living

throughout this entire
cave system.

There is 100-percent chance
that humans used this

as a path down
into the Keyhole Chamber.

[James] This is exciting.

It matches what we would find
in the ancient Aztec homeland.

I agree.

I think we found
one of the entrances
to Chicomoztoc.

Damn right it is.

This tunnel could also be
the Aztec homeland,

Chicomoztoc, that James
has been telling us about.

[narrator]
According to legend,

Chicomoztoc
is the ancient homeland
of the Aztec civilization,

comprised of a network
of seven caves.

The Aztec illustrations
of Chicomoztoc

bear a striking similarity
to the Keyhole Cavern.

This may very well be it.
I think you may have found it.

Wow.

[narrator] The implications
of the discoveries
are enormous.

The team has now identified
one of the likely paths

the Aztecs used
to enter Chicomoztoc

and access
the treasure chamber.

I think this is prove that
Chicomoztoc theory is true.

You know, for years
people thought

I was flat ass crazy
on this whole deal,

and that there's no
Aztec treasure chamber,

no gold on Blind Frog Ranch.

But this discovery
is confirming everything

we believed all along.

People say there's nothing
like that

Chad, you think there's
another way in down there?

I didn't see one.

And I was trying to keep on
going towards the current,

but it looked like
there was some kind
of collapse.

Like, all these big rocks...

So you could feel the flow.

Yeah. It had a current
pushing against you

when you were trying
to go in there.

It's all rubble filled,
isn't it?

[Chad] Uh-huh. Yeah.

It got so narrow,
I couldn't go any further.

[narrator] With the cavern
flooded and the way blocked
by rubble,

accessing the entrance
any further isn't viable.

So Chad will need
to find another entrance

somewhere along the path
of the cavern.

You know, this may be blocked,

-but we have to find
another way in.
-Yeah.

I think we need to regroup
and come up with a new plan
to get in there.

We just have to find
another way to drop into that
tunnel system.

-Let's go for it then.
-Let's do it.

I mean, this could be
the biggest discovery
we've ever had.

We know there's a way in.

That tunnel is right below
our feet.

Now, we just need a plan.

Eric, what have you got?

So I went to a place
in southern Ohio

called the Serpent
Mound Disturbance.

It's a verified
meteor impact site.

[narrator] For six months,
the team has been pursuing

a two-pronged plan

to access the Keyhole Cavern.

The first, is trying to enter

the tail of the Keyhole Cavern

through the Bead Site,

which led to the discovery
of the flooded tunnel.

The second prong
has been focused

on accessing the Keyhole
from above,

drilling into the area
known as the Energy Zone.

However, last year,

they struck
an impenetrable object

200 feet below the surface.

[man] It's stuck!

There is something huge
going on on your property.

Congratulations, boys.

Looks like y'all got
a meteor at Blind Frog Range.

I met with a colleague of mine
who is an expert

in meteor impact sites.

[narrator] Searching for a way
past the meteorite

sitting on top
of the Keyhole Chamber,

Eric traveled to another
meteorite site

in the Ohio Valley...

-Mark Baranoski.
-Eric, good to meet you.

[narrator] ...called
the Serpent Mount Disturbance.

It's very large...
approximately five miles
in diameter.

It's huge.

[narrator] In addition
to the meteorite,

Eric encountered another
striking feature in Ohio.

Over 2,000 years ago,

the prehistoric Adena culture

constructed a large
ceremonial effigy

in the shape of a snake

directly on top
of the meteorite.

So the Adena people
built a sacred site
and burial mounds,

specifically because
of the meteor impact.

I mean, I'm wondering
if ancient people
did the same thing

at Blind Frog Ranch.

Is it related
to the impact site?

Did they carve out
the circular Keyhole Chamber

because the meteorite
was there?

I mean, it could be
the same thing here.
I don't know.

The reason I went there
was to see how they determined

the size and location
of this meteorite.

So, at the Serpent Mound,
scientists used
a special drill rig

with a core bit on it

to be able
to pull up continuous core,

to map out the size
and position of that
meteorite underground.

So my plan is to use
the same technique

to obtain multiple
core samples,

and I'll compare that data

and see if we're still
in that impact site.

Once we find the edge
of that meteorite,

we're gonna drill down past it

into the Keyhole Chamber.

[narrator] If Eric can
find the edge
of the Blind Frog meteorite,

he believes he can
drill around it,

creating a borehole
wide enough

to drop straight down
into the Keyhole Chamber

where the team believes
the Aztec gold is cached.

All right, fellas,
that's a good idea.

Let's get out there
and keep moving forward.

You know, when you're hunting
for a treasure like this, um,

time is never
really your friend.

I'm not getting any younger,

and I'd like to see
that treasure before
it's all over.

So we need to attack this
from every angle,

above and below.

So now, Chad's gonna
find a way into those
underwater tunnels,

and Eric is gonna drill down
past that meteorite

into that Keyhole Chamber.

Sounds like a plan.
Let's do it.

-Good. Let's do it.
-Sounds like a plan.

[Duane] Hey, Denzel.

How's it going, bud?

-[Eric] That's the borehole
we want to offset.
-[Denzel] Okay.

So, maybe some more
over in here?

-We'll have a look?
-[Denzel] All right. Yeah.

[narrator] Using the borehole
from last year
as the center point,

Eric will drill pilot holes
in 20-foot increments,

checking the iron content
of each core sample.

The less iron in the sample
indicates they are reaching

the fragmented edge
of the meteorite,

where the drill
can easily pass.

"X" marks the spot.

[Eric] There we go.

So, Duane hired me
five years ago

to help him get in
and find that gold.

Now is my chance to show him

that his investment
is worth it.

But it's not like this kind
of project has been done
many times before.

That's pretty good.

So, while I think this plan
is gonna work...

I'm a little nervous
about this, too.

Well, let's get it going now.

Put that thing on high idle.

You know, in total, it's gonna
cost about 70 grand

to drill past this meteorite.

That's the price we gotta pay
to make history.

it'll be well worth the blood,
sweat and pain.

-Let's see it.
-All right, let's get it.

[engine roaring]

[narrator] While Eric
is attempting to drill into
the keyhole chamber,

Chad and Josh
have come up with a new plan

to gain entrance
into the underground cavern

by tracking its path
from above.

Just be looking for anything
that's unusual.

That just looks out of place.

Gotcha. All right,
let's head that way, brother.

[narrator] Last season,
the team tracked the path

of the flooded tunnel
using an acoustic beacon.

All right, it's in the hole.

[narrator] Now they'll use
the data to trace

the flooded pathway
from the surface,

looking for any openings to
the underground cavern system.

-[Chad] Let's check that
beacon path real quick.
-[Josh] Yeah, good idea.

[Chad] I mean,
it looks like it goes
underneath those rocks.

[Josh] Yeah,
and it's limestone.

Now there's...
that's where caves are found,
is in limestone.

We absolutely could have
an entrance to a cave here.

Let's see where that leads us.

[Josh] Let's hoof it up there.

People were living down
in this cave system,

so we know they had
to have other entrances
to the surface.

This is just physics.
When you're down
in the cave system,

you can only go as deep
as the ventilation
will allow you to.

Once you get
to a certain depth,
you have to dig an air shaft

or you have to have
natural ventilation

from a cave entrance
to pipe air down.

There has to be a way
to allow that cave to breathe.

It's always uphill,
isn't it, Chad?

-[Chad chuckles]
Both ways, yeah?
-[Josh chuckles]

[Chad] When I was down in that
underwater cavern system,

I was so close to the gold,
I could feel it.

Knowing what's underneath
us here is motivating me
to keep searching

until we find another way
into that cavern.

I feel like
we are closer than ever
to finding this gold.

-[Josh] We're at the top, huh?
-[Chad] Yeah.

[Josh] We need
to scour this rock.

Just look at everything.

Let's see if there's
any fissures or caves
or anything like that.

Any hole, any crack, a cave,
any opening at all

that we see on top
of this limestone hill

could be a way down
into that cavern system.

So we got to
look this whole thing
over very carefully.

[Chad] There's
unlimited spots.

[Josh] Take the full 360
around this place.

Man, I don't see
any openings at all,
let alone a cave entrance.

-[Chad] Josh,
come look at this.
-[Josh] What do you got?

[Chad] This right here.

Someone carved this out
almost like an arrow.

-[Josh] Look at that.
-[Chad] What is that?

[Josh] That is really
something, Chad.

[Chad] [bleep] crazy.

Holy [bleep].

-[Chad] Josh,
come look at this.
-[Josh] What do you got?

[Chad] Someone carved this out
almost like an arrow.

[Josh] Look at that.

-That is really
something Chad.
-[Chad] I know, right?

[Josh] Obviously,
someone did that.
That's not natural.

[Chad] I mean,
it looks like a rock cairn.

[narrator] Josh and Chad
are tracing the path of the
flooded tunnel system

and have come across
what appears to be a cairn,

a collection of stacked rocks
used by indigenous cultures
to mark significant landmarks

such as water sources,
trails or burial mounds.

-It does look like this has
been knocked off here...
-[Chad] Yeah.

...to make it a sharper edge.

[Chad] Pointed
right over there.

All right.
We got any binoculars?

[Josh] Uh, you know... Here.
I've got... I got some stuff
in my bag here.

See what you can see
with that.

It looks like
it's pointing east.

[Chad chuckles]

You're not gonna
[bleep] believe this.

So you see those bunch
of trees right there?

Right below that
there's a round object.

[Josh] That white rock.

-[Chad] You see what
I'm talking about right there?
-[Josh] I do.

[Chad] Maybe I'm wrong,
but that looks exactly
like a turtle.

[Josh] Holy [bleep],
it really does.

[Chad] That looks like
a marker to me.

[Josh] Let's find out.

This is what
I'm talking about.

We're out here and
we're finding these markers

all over the path
of this underwater cavern,

and these have been untouched
for hundreds of years.

Somebody worked these.
They had purpose.

Now we've got to figure out
what these people are trying
to tell us.

Man, we're on
the right [bleep] track.

-Let's get it, buddy.
-We're living it right now.
Hell, yeah.

It's almost like you
get a feeling when you know
you're on the right track.

I mean, it's kind of
hard to describe,

but it's no coincidence
that these markers

are right above
the underwater cavern.

We are onto something
big here.

[narrator] Duane and the team
are drilling holes

searching for the edge
of the meteorite

blocking their access
to the keyhole chamber below.

A cavern they believe
is housing the Aztec gold.

Eric is drilling the first
pilot hole 25 feet from the
center of the energy zone.

In the oil fields,
we always finished
every project we were on.

I have built a reputation
on getting jobs done
no matter what.

But this job,
finding that gold is not done.

And that bothers
the hell out of me.

So we'll do whatever it takes
to get into that chamber
and find that gold.

Run a metal detector
over this. See if there's any
fragments in there.

[narrator]
Using a metal detector,

Eric is searching for
small pieces of meteoric iron
in each core sample.

[Eric] So most meteorites are
composed of iron and nickel.

A lot of iron
in that core sample

means we're close to the
main body of the meteorite.

So we'll step out
and drill a new hole

until we're not hitting
any more iron.

[machine beeping]

[Charlie] You're getting
a hit there.

Yeah, there's something
in there. Hey, Duane! Duane!

Duane, we got something
metallic in here.

In my hand.

There it is.

[machine beeps]

-There it is.
-[Duane] There it is.

-[Eric] Look at that.
-[Duane] Oh, yeah.

[Charlie] Is that
part of the meteor?

It very well could be.
It appears to be iron.

I'll look at it
under the scope
to verify that.

Duane, that could be
a good sign.

All right. Good.

[Eric] I'll have a quick look.

Yeah, it looks like
high iron content.

And that's consistent
with what a meteorite fragment
would be.

-Let's see if we got any more
in there, Duane.
-[Duane] Okay.

[machine beeping]

-We got another one.
-[Charlie] Wow.

We may have
another one, Duane.

Did you hear this?

[machine beeps]

So far true,
right in this zone right here.

So let's move over and see
if we can get outside of it.

-We'll compare the two.
-We need to. Yeah,
let's do it.

-We find out
how big and round it is.
-[Eric] Yeah.

Yu know, there's no
such thing as bad information.

Every bit of it adds up.
It's like a puzzle.

So everything we're pulling up
out of the ground is giving us
a more clear picture.

Each clue gets us
closer to the gold and
help us solve the puzzle.

[Eric] So we're finding
all these meteorite fragments
in this borehole,

and so,
this is good information.

But what we need to do now
is step out maybe 20, 25 feet,

do another core
and then compare that
to the original bore.

The idea is,
the less fragments we find,
the closer we are to the edge.

Thank you.

-[machine beeping]
-[Eric] Yeah, maybe, yeah.

I'm looking for
more of the big ones.

So there's less...
less iron in this sample
and there's no big pieces,

so it looks like we're getting
to the edge of the meteorite.

-Move 'em over.
-All right, let's do it.

Denzel!

I mean, this next borehole
might punch right down
into the keyhole chamber.

This is good stuff, man.

-[Chad] You see what
I'm talking about right there?
-[Josh] I do.

[Chad] Maybe I'm wrong,
but that looks exactly
like a turtle.

[Josh] Holy [bleep],
it really does.

[Chad] That looks like
a marker to me.

[Josh] Yeah, definitely.

[narrator] Chad and Josh
are tracing the path
of the flooded cavern system

and have come across a cairn
which is pointing directly to
another large rock formation.

[Chad] Holy [bleep].

[Josh] When we see
stuff like this, turtles...

that's intriguing, man.

Turtles were important
to the Aztec,

and they could've been used
as symbols to hide
some sort of treasure.

All this imagery out here,
these rock cairns,
that turtle,

they line up
with the underwater cavern,

so we'll see how they
connect to one another,

and if they
actually lead us somewhere.

And we've got to get over
that turtle right now.

All right, let's do it, man.

So what did the turtles
mean to the Aztecs?

So for the Aztec,
the turtles were a symbol
of resilience and survival.

And, I mean, survival
would have definitely been
on the Aztecs' mind.

They lost their entire empire.

Chad's got me
on a treasure hunt,
and I love treasure hunts.

The thing about it is, though,
is treasure hunting is not
about following a map.

It's about
following the people
who left the treasure,

who they were
and what their motives were.

So, that's really
what I'm trying to learn.

[Chad] Yeah, that's the turtle
right there.

You see the curve
of the shell here?

-[Josh] There...
the back of the turtle?
-[Chad] Yep.

[Josh] Yeah, I see it.

[Chad] That's the, uh...

Huh. Look at this.
Look. [chuckles]

That's the head right there.

[Josh] Holy crap,
does that look like a turtle.
Wow! [chuckles]

That's perfect.
Look at that thing.

[Chad] The head points
straight on this line
right here.

Well, what if I took
a bearing on this
and then we'll just...

we'll follow exactly where
this turtle is pointing.

-Yeah, good idea. Perfect.
-[Josh] Yeah, let me do that
real quick.

[narrator] Indigenous cultures
such as the Aztecs,

have used stone turtle
markers for centuries.

Records claim that the head
of the turtle marker
points the way to treasure,

with etched markings
on the shell indicating
the distance to its location.

However, when the treasure
is gone, the turtle's head
is removed.

The fact
that this turtle marker
still has its head

is a positive indication
that the treasure is still
on Blind Frog Ranch.

So we're actually
at about 75 degrees east.

Yeah, right about there.

And Chad,
that bearing is lining up
with the beacon path

right here in front of us.

Right. Yep.

The sun's going down quick.
I say we come back tomorrow

-and we can search
all day tomorrow too.
-[Josh] Yeah.

[Chad] This is turning
into a little bigger trek
than we expected.

So we're gonna get
some sleep tonight and, uh,
be ready tomorrow to explore.

[Duane] You know, that's the
greatest damn machine
I've ever seen in my life.

[narrator] At the Energy Zone,
Eric is trying to determine
the edge of the meteorite

so that he can drill around it
and penetrate directly into
the keyhole chamber below,

where they believe the Aztecs'
lost treasure of gold bars

has been hidden
for more than 500 years.

So our first hole revealed
a lot of iron fragments.

-Got another one.
-[Charlie] Wow.

The second sample
had almost none,

implying that
we're closer to the edge.

So now we're drilling
a third hole

another 20 feet away
from the center
of the Energy Zone,

to see if our soil sample
reveals the edge
of that meteorite.

It's taken a long time
to get to where we are and,

but we're doing it right,
though. We're being
very careful.

I can be patient,
but, uh, I can't wait forever.

I want to look back and say,
"This was the day
we found that gold."

[Eric] All right.
What do we got, guys?

Uh, 195 to 200 foot.

All right, good.
Good, good. Thank you.

[Duane] Picking up anything,
Charlie boy?

[Eric] So in all the
soil samples of the strata,

we're not finding any
meteorite fragments here.
This is very good news.

So this means
we might finally be
at the edge of the meteorite.

[Charlie] Not getting
anything in here.

[Eric] [bleep].

What's up, Eric?

[Eric] I got something
going on here. Hold on.

Might... Might just want to
hang there for a minute.

I'm seeing something here
that I don't like.

[machine crackles]

[Eric] This is not good.

[Charlie] What is it?

[machine continues crackling]

It's highly
radioactive uranium.

[Charlie] What are you
talking about?

Uh, we gotta
shut the drillers down,
number one.

And we gotta
just abandon that hole.

[Duane] Let's get
the [bleep] out of here.

-[Eric] John! Hey, John!
-[John] Yeah?

-[Eric] Shut it down!
-[John] Shut it down?

-[Eric] Shut down that rig!
-[John] Denzel!

You know I said before,
this land does fight back.

It's gonna throw
a right punch at you.

And about the time you've got
that swing taken care of,

it'll hit you
with a fricking left
and you won't see it coming.

-[Eric] This whole place
could be radioactive.
-[Duane] Oh, [bleep].

[John] Denzel, shut it down!

[machine beeping
and crackling]

[bleep]. I'd stay back.

We're at, uh, 200 feet
and we hit a layer of...
of, uh, uranium.

[narrator] Uranium is a
radioactive metal

used to create
highly concentrated energy,

including powering
nuclear weapons.

The element was used
in the atomic bomb
deployed on Hiroshima.

In addition
to its destructive power,

prolonged exposure to uranium

can cause radiation poisoning,
cancer and even death.

While meteorites contain
the radioactive element,

most uranium mined on Earth
is around decayed
vegetation systems,

that trap
the radioactive mineral.

The state of Utah contains
some of the largest deposits
of uranium in America.

[phone ringing]

[operator speaking]

[Charlie] Yeah, yeah,
this is Charles Snider
with the Blind Frog Ranch,

and, uh, I've got an intruder
out on our property.

[operator speaking]

[Charlie] Yeah, he's cut
the locks on our gate,
and he's on the ranch now.

So, uh, can you send a deputy
out there that's familiar
with our ranch?

[operator speaking]

[Charlie] No,
but I'm headed out
that direction right now.

Security cameras and
motion detectors alerted me.

And if you can get a...
a deputy out there
to back me up, please.

[operator speaking]

-[Charlie] All right.
Thank you.
-[phone beeps]

This is the last thing
I want to deal with
in the middle of the night.

Now I'm pissed off.

[Charlie] Well,
I've got an intruder on the,
uh, on the property.

He's cut the...
the chain at the gate.

He just crossed Mosby Creek.
He's headed up the mountain.

-[Duane] Call Jacko.
-[Charlie] Yeah,
I'm gonna call him.

[phone ringing]

[Chad] Hey, I'm on my way.

[Charlie] Yeah. Get out here
as quick as you can.

I called the sheriff.
They're on their way.

[Chad] Is he
still on the property?

[Charlie] He's still
out there.

He's... I'm watching him
on the cameras now.

[Chad] [bleep]. Okay,
I'll be there in 30 minutes.

[Charlie] Okay.
Make some headway.

[Duane] Where's he at,
Charlie boy?

[Charlie] He's pulling up
right by the miner shack now,

so I don't know
what the hell he's doing.

He's [bleep]...

He's getting something
out of the back door.

It's a damn shovel.

I'm gonna turn the speaker on.

Hey, you're trespassing.

I got the Sheriff's
department coming.

Get the [bleep] off
our property now.

Well, [bleep],
now he knows we're coming.

[Charlie] He's ignoring me,
Duane.

He don't give a [bleep]
about anything.

What's he doing now, Charlie?

[Charlie] He's up on the hill.

He's got a shovel
in his hands.

This [bleep] got on
a bulletproof vest.
His face is covered.

He is literally digging
something up right across
from the damn tent.

[Duane] What the hell?

[Charlie] Holy [bleep].

What the [bleep]?

[narrator] This season...

-[Chad] Holy [bleep].
-[Josh] Man!

[narrator] ...on
Blind Frog Ranch...

-[man 1] It's pumping a lot.
-[Duane] Hell yeah.

[Josh] Is this not a bear
guarding the cave?
Look at that.

[narrator]
...new discoveries...

[Chad] These look like
the ingots that we found
last year.

[narrator] ...bring them
closer to the vast fortunes.

There's something
of value here. Something
worth dying over.

-Fire!
-Oh, [bleep].

[narrator] But the land
pushes back even harder...

People were drug in there.
Killed.

[man 2] This is
definitely death.

[narrator] ...Intruders emerge
from the shadows...

[Duane] They're
monitoring something.

There's some very weird stuff
going on in this ranch.

[Charlie] That's a black wolf.

[gunshot]

[narrator] ...driving
the team deeper...

There was something
above it that perturbed
the magnetic field,

maybe like a UAP.

[narrator] ...into
the Mystery...

If I was gonna
bury a treasure,
this would be it.

[whispers] There's someone
in here.

[narrator]
...at Blind Frog Ranch.
