Klondike kingpin Tony Beetsis off to a quick start.

His early-bird cutat Indian River

00:00:58,533 --> 00:01:01,667
has already delivered417 ounces

00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:04,567
worth one and a halfmillion dollars.

[Tony speaking]

00:01:46,133 --> 00:01:47,467

of water coming into the cut.

OK, copy that.
21
00:02:48,867 --> 00:02:53,300
At Indian River,the 13-acre Early Bird Cut sits
22
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,467
next to two connectedsettling ponds.
23
00:02:57,333 --> 00:02:59,266
These holdall the dirty sluice water
24
00:02:59,934 --> 00:03:01,166
from washplant Sluice-a-lot
25
00:03:02,066 --> 00:03:04,567
discharged at 3,300gallons a minute.
26
00:03:06,100 --> 00:03:08,567
But a beaver has pluggedthe culvert
27
00:03:09,233 --> 00:03:10,567
connecting the two ponds.
28
00:03:11,867 --> 00:03:16,166
Unable to drain into the secondpond, the first pond is quickly
29
00:03:16,867 --> 00:03:18,767
filled up and burst its banks.
30
00:03:19,967 --> 00:03:24,867
Water is now flooding intoTony's only gold-producing cut.

00:03:39,700 --> 00:03:40,867

To access and clearthe culvert, Tony will first
41
00:04:33,867 --> 00:04:35,000
need to get rid of the water.

[Kevin]
First nuggie of the year.
That's great.
50
00:06:33,467 --> 00:06:36,567
Well, this is a [bleep]
encouraging cleanup.
51
00:06:37,667 --> 00:06:41,467
Just like his father Tony,eldest son Kevin Beets
52
00:06:42,333 --> 00:06:45,166
is already turningdirt into dollars.
53
00:06:45,834 --> 00:06:47,300
[Kevin] Boing, boing, boing.
54
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,567
Only one week into his secondseason as mine boss,
55
00:06:53,834 --> 00:06:58,200
he's already banked 57 ouncesof his new 2,000-ounce target.
56
00:06:59,033 --> 00:06:59,767
[Kevin]
We started sluicing so early,
57
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,266
'cause last year
we left ourselves
58
00:07:02,900 --> 00:07:04,100
a good little piggy bank.
59
00:07:05,300 --> 00:07:06,567
Because the gold price being
as high as she is, now there's
60
00:07:07,734 --> 00:07:09,867
extra incentive to have money
coming in from the get-go.
61
00:07:10,767 --> 00:07:12,667
It is unfortunate
that Brennan is gone.
62
00:07:13,867 --> 00:07:15,100
We relied on him quite heavily
for keeping the cut in line,
63
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:16,700
but we will make it
work somehow.
64
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,100
All right, guys.
We had a very good start,
65
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,100
but as you know, Brennan is not
coming back this year,
66
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,100
so I'll be down here in the cut
67
00:07:31,233 --> 00:07:33,567
a bit more often to provide more
guidance and direction.
68
00:07:34,467 --> 00:07:36,767
So, Kayden, you can be
feeding the plant.
69
00:07:37,333 --> 00:07:38,500
Rick on tailings again.
70
00:07:39,667 --> 00:07:40,567
Chelsea, Ayla, and Tyler will
get the rock trucks going
71
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:41,967
to get a bit
of stripping happening.
72
00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:44,467
Any comments,
questions, or concerns?
73
00:07:45,667 --> 00:07:48,200
My only concern would be
about wet pay
74
00:07:48,834 --> 00:07:49,667
and our potential jam-up.
75
00:07:50,667 --> 00:07:51,767
Well, we really don't have
the time
76
00:07:52,367 --> 00:07:53,100
to let it dry right now.
77
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,367
Have to try and shove it
through and see what it does.
78
00:07:55,767 --> 00:07:56,600
[Kayden] OK.
79
00:07:57,700 --> 00:07:59,266
[Kevin] So, let us get
to getting and get some gold.
80
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:02,400
Kayden's concerns
about the wet pay,
81
00:08:03,100 --> 00:08:03,967
weighed against getting going,
82
00:08:05,100 --> 00:08:06,767
I think it is worth rolling
the dice and just dealing
83
00:08:07,467 --> 00:08:08,166
with any issues as they arise.
84
00:08:12,100 --> 00:08:15,467
[Kayden]
I think that Kevin's decision
to run the wet pay is gonna
85
00:08:16,266 --> 00:08:17,467
bite us in the ass
in the long run.
86
00:08:18,567 --> 00:08:22,467
As spring temperatures beginto rise, Kevin's thawing
87
00:08:23,133 --> 00:08:25,567
pay pile is becoming sloppy.
88
00:08:26,567 --> 00:08:29,567
[Kayden] [bleep] wet pay
keeps skipping the belt.
89
00:08:30,734 --> 00:08:33,767
And proving problematicfor 23-year-old local mechanic
90
00:08:34,433 --> 00:08:35,800
and operator, Kayden Foote.
91
00:08:36,867 --> 00:08:40,166
[Kayden] The pay is so wet,
the belt slips on it.
92
00:08:40,834 --> 00:08:42,066
It just doesn't pick it up.
93
00:08:42,967 --> 00:08:44,166
I don't know why
he's choosing to do this,
94
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,000
but it's making
my patience run thin.
95
00:08:48,567 --> 00:08:51,567
Poor planning causes
piss-poor production,
96
00:08:52,367 --> 00:08:53,800
which leads
to piss-poor results.
97
00:08:54,233 --> 00:08:55,667
[rumbling stops]
98
00:08:57,100 --> 00:08:59,266
Oh, [bleep], [bleep], [bleep].
99
00:09:00,467 --> 00:09:02,400
This [bleep] wet pay, man.
100
00:09:04,467 --> 00:09:07,100
[ominous music plays]
101
00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:11,700
[engine winds down]
102
00:09:19,367 --> 00:09:21,367
[Kayden] Hey, Kevin.
Got a copy, Kevin?
103
00:09:22,567 --> 00:09:24,066
[Kevin] Go for Kevin.
104
00:09:24,867 --> 00:09:27,300
[Kayden]
The roller on the feeder,
105
00:09:28,367 --> 00:09:30,567
the drive wheel was spinning,
but the belt wasn't.
106
00:09:31,533 --> 00:09:33,967
It's soaking wet.
So I shut everything down.
107
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:35,266
[Kevin] OK...
108
00:09:37,100 --> 00:09:40,200
[Kayden] See that?
Wet [bleep] mud!
109
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:41,767
Can't [bleep] run that.
110
00:09:42,700 --> 00:09:44,300
Jams up the feeder,
creates the drive belt
111
00:09:44,734 --> 00:09:45,867
to just spin.
112
00:09:47,367 --> 00:09:49,100
Endless [bleep] problems.
113
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,100
Can't run wet [bleep] soup.
114
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,166
I just dumped a bucket in
when it stopped.
115
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,767
[Kevin] Got ya.
116
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,767
[Kayden]
But it was, like, soaking wet.
117
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,066
[Kevin] Yeah.
118
00:10:09,133 --> 00:10:10,967
[Kayden]
If we spread the material,
it would dry out
119
00:10:11,500 --> 00:10:12,367
within a day or two.
120
00:10:12,867 --> 00:10:14,166
[clicking tongue]
121
00:10:15,166 --> 00:10:17,000
It's better than fighting
constant shutdowns.
122
00:10:17,433 --> 00:10:18,767
[Kevin] Uh, no.
123
00:10:19,834 --> 00:10:21,100
A lot of that is just
feeding it in less quickly,
124
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,367
and there will be less [bleep].
125
00:10:25,467 --> 00:10:27,000
We just have to make it work.
126
00:10:27,533 --> 00:10:28,266
Clean out the wheel.
127
00:10:29,467 --> 00:10:31,300
And after that, we'll get
back to sluicing.
128
00:10:32,767 --> 00:10:33,867
[Kayden] Your call, boss.
129
00:10:35,467 --> 00:10:36,567
[scoffs]
130
00:10:38,767 --> 00:10:42,900
The wet pay is slopping overthe side of the hopper feeder's
131
00:10:43,467 --> 00:10:44,166
first conveyor belt
132
00:10:45,100 --> 00:10:46,767
onto its drive wheel below,
133
00:10:48,367 --> 00:10:51,967
making it too slippery to gripand push the heavy dirt
134
00:10:52,567 --> 00:10:53,467
up the conveyor belt...
135
00:10:54,967 --> 00:10:58,367
stopping it from feeding payonto the second conveyor
136
00:10:58,967 --> 00:11:00,500
and into the washplant.
137
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,367
Kevin's quick fix?
138
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,800
Use 4,000 pounds per squareinch of high-pressure hot water
139
00:11:08,367 --> 00:11:09,967
to blast away the mud.
140
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,700
Then fire up the plant and feedthe pay at a slower rate.
141
00:11:19,266 --> 00:11:21,467
[engine starts]
142
00:11:24,700 --> 00:11:26,367
[Kayden] I really miss working
with Brennan.
143
00:11:27,367 --> 00:11:31,266
He's my friend.
He was super nice, supportive.
144
00:11:32,233 --> 00:11:34,667
And with Kevin, I feel
like I'm disrespected.
145
00:11:35,633 --> 00:11:37,000
Whenever I bring something
to his attention,
146
00:11:37,567 --> 00:11:38,467
nothing ever happens.
147
00:11:41,467 --> 00:11:43,266
He hired me on as a mechanic,
148
00:11:44,133 --> 00:11:46,467
and now I'm stuck
doing this [bleep].
149
00:11:46,900 --> 00:11:50,700
[water gushing]
150
00:11:51,667 --> 00:11:53,567
Like, why are we [bleep]
struggling like this?
151
00:11:55,066 --> 00:11:56,667
It's really pissing me off.
152
00:12:11,266 --> 00:12:13,367
[moose groaning]
153
00:12:19,166 --> 00:12:20,867
[Rick] It's been a tough start
to the season,
154
00:12:21,900 --> 00:12:22,867
with the whole Duncan Creek
water license thing,
155
00:12:23,567 --> 00:12:24,200
it's like beating a dead horse.
156
00:12:25,367 --> 00:12:27,100
Gold prices are great right now,
and I have to make a move
157
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:28,600
on this Lightning Creek option.
158
00:12:29,567 --> 00:12:31,000
It's either, you know,
move on, or, you know,
159
00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:33,000
sit here and cry about it,
which we're not gonna do.
160
00:12:33,567 --> 00:12:35,467
44-year-old mine boss,
161
00:12:36,233 --> 00:12:38,567
Rick Ness,is in survival mode.
162
00:12:39,667 --> 00:12:41,867
With red tape preventing himfrom running a stockpile
163
00:12:42,934 --> 00:12:46,000
of gold on his own claim,he has just one choice,
164
00:12:47,066 --> 00:12:49,467
go back to leasing groundfrom his old landlord.
165
00:12:50,567 --> 00:12:52,367
It's Troy Taylor's ground,
so I'm gonna talk to Troy
166
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:54,400
right now and see if we can
come up with a deal.
167
00:12:55,033 --> 00:12:55,667
Quite honestly, I need it.
168
00:12:56,567 --> 00:12:57,467
I can't afford
to not get gold this year.
169
00:12:58,667 --> 00:13:01,467
If Rick can cut a deal forthe ground at Lightning Creek,
170
00:13:02,367 --> 00:13:04,100
he'll once again pay Troya percentage
171
00:13:04,667 --> 00:13:05,900
on any gold he mines.
172
00:13:08,367 --> 00:13:09,500
-[Rick] Troy.
-[Troy] Hey, Rick.
173
00:13:10,133 --> 00:13:10,867
[Rick] How you doing, man?
174
00:13:11,367 --> 00:13:12,000
[Troy] Come on in.
175
00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:16,367
What's happening out there?
176
00:13:16,867 --> 00:13:17,900
[Rick] Oh, no, no.
177
00:13:18,867 --> 00:13:20,000
-I'm here to make a deal.
-Yeah, let's talk.
178
00:13:20,567 --> 00:13:22,166
What are you thinking?
179
00:13:23,166 --> 00:13:25,000
I mean, I guess we're gonna talk
about royalties.
180
00:13:25,533 --> 00:13:26,600
I'm looking for 10%.
181
00:13:28,700 --> 00:13:30,967
Yeah, well...
182
00:13:31,500 --> 00:13:32,200
Things have changed.
183
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,300
[Rick]
Uh, so what were you thinking?
184
00:13:36,500 --> 00:13:39,500
[Troy]
The royalty is 20%, Rick.
185
00:13:40,033 --> 00:13:41,667
[somber music plays]
186
00:13:43,367 --> 00:13:46,100
[Rick] Holy [bleep], Troy,
I mean, that's a lot of money.
187
00:13:46,934 --> 00:13:48,300
I'd be taking
all the risk from you,
188
00:13:48,934 --> 00:13:49,400
and you'd be making more.
189
00:13:50,367 --> 00:13:52,567
What if -- what if we said 15?
190
00:13:56,100 --> 00:13:58,867
[Troy] I get that,
but it's less royalty.
191
00:13:59,934 --> 00:14:01,867
You know how it is with water
licenses in demand.
192
00:14:03,033 --> 00:14:03,800
There is a lot of people more
than ever showing interest
193
00:14:04,300 --> 00:14:05,000
right now.
-Yeah.
194
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:06,500
[Troy] So...
195
00:14:08,667 --> 00:14:11,166
Yeah, you're right about that,
but how many of these people
196
00:14:11,734 --> 00:14:12,400
have you worked with?
197
00:14:13,133 --> 00:14:13,600
These people can
promise you 20%.
198
00:14:14,700 --> 00:14:15,367
Well, what are they gonna
actually put in your hand?
199
00:14:16,533 --> 00:14:18,200
We've been working together
for, you know,
200
00:14:19,467 --> 00:14:20,667
six years now, and if I say I
can put good gold in your hand,
201
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:21,767
that's what
you're gonna get.
202
00:14:22,867 --> 00:14:24,000
[Troy] I don't know.
203
00:14:26,500 --> 00:14:29,166
Yeah, I know what you can do.
204
00:14:31,567 --> 00:14:33,900
So I'm OK with 15%.
205
00:14:35,100 --> 00:14:37,300
[Rick]
I think we got a good deal.
206
00:14:37,900 --> 00:14:38,867
[Rick] All right, Troy.
207
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,800
Rick must pay Troy 5% moreroyalties than he used to
208
00:14:44,367 --> 00:14:46,867
and owes him $350,000
209
00:14:47,767 --> 00:14:49,567
no matter what kindof gold he finds.
210
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,667
But he finally has groundfor this season.
211
00:14:55,333 --> 00:14:56,567
We got a spot to go mining.
212
00:14:57,533 --> 00:14:59,367
I didn't get the 20%,
but I've got a minimum
213
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,166
100 ounces, and I'm gonna be
involved on a regular basis
214
00:15:02,734 --> 00:15:03,867
up there, so it's good.
215
00:15:05,133 --> 00:15:05,967
At the end of the day, is this
the deal that I wanted to make?
216
00:15:07,033 --> 00:15:08,400
No, of course I wanted to be
mining my own ground,
217
00:15:08,900 --> 00:15:09,567
but you know what?
218
00:15:10,467 --> 00:15:11,066
We've got the deal made
to be able to mine
219
00:15:12,100 --> 00:15:13,367
on Lightning Creek,
so time to get on some gold.
220
00:15:24,700 --> 00:15:27,166
100 miles away...
221
00:15:28,333 --> 00:15:29,100
[Parker] Your timing is perfect,
because I'm in the middle
222
00:15:29,867 --> 00:15:31,000
of going through
hiring right now.
223
00:15:32,100 --> 00:15:34,867
And having people that have
some experience up here
224
00:15:35,367 --> 00:15:36,367
is a huge benefit.
225
00:15:37,166 --> 00:15:38,467
Like, I have a spot
for you 100%.
226
00:15:42,100 --> 00:15:43,467
All right, well...
227
00:15:44,667 --> 00:15:46,367
-Welcome aboard.
-[Kayden] Thank you very much.
228
00:15:47,166 --> 00:15:47,800
Look forward to working
with you.
229
00:15:48,533 --> 00:15:49,066
[Parker]
Yeah, no, it'll be good.
230
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,467
When you get here,
we'll take you on a tour
231
00:15:52,333 --> 00:15:53,367
and wash some rocks.
-[Kayden] Awesome.
232
00:15:53,967 --> 00:15:54,400
All right.
Thanks, man.
233
00:15:55,333 --> 00:15:55,867
-[Kayden] Have a great day.
-See you soon.
234
00:15:58,300 --> 00:15:59,400
Awesome!
235
00:16:00,567 --> 00:16:02,300
Hired [chuckles].
236
00:16:03,066 --> 00:16:05,467
Parker Schnabelis at it again.
237
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,266
Having already poachedKevin's foreman, Brennan Rualt,
238
00:16:10,367 --> 00:16:12,867
he's now hiring Kevin's keyoperator and mechanic,
239
00:16:13,300 --> 00:16:14,500
Kayden Foote.
240
00:16:15,667 --> 00:16:16,767
[Parker]
Kayden's gonna be a great
addition to the place.
241
00:16:17,567 --> 00:16:18,100
When it comes
to poaching people,
242
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:19,900
everybody's trying
to do it.
243
00:16:20,900 --> 00:16:23,266
So I just don't know,
am I the worst offender
244
00:16:24,166 --> 00:16:26,367
or am I just the most
successful at it?
245
00:16:26,667 --> 00:16:27,467
Right?
246
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:34,567
[Kayden] Got the job.
247
00:16:35,667 --> 00:16:37,066
Feels great.
248
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,266
In my eyes, he's the king
of the Klondike.
249
00:16:40,667 --> 00:16:44,100
But the most nerve-wracking
part is gonna be when I tell
250
00:16:44,767 --> 00:16:45,867
Kevin and Faith I'm leaving.
251
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,000
That's the one thing I'm
dreading, is that conversation.
252
00:16:54,667 --> 00:16:57,867
[tense music plays]
253
00:17:07,467 --> 00:17:09,500
[Kayden] I want to talk
to you and Faith.
254
00:17:09,900 --> 00:17:10,567
[Kevin] OK.
255
00:17:11,467 --> 00:17:12,266
Really quick,
because I do have to run.
256
00:17:18,767 --> 00:17:19,867
What's up?
257
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:22,266
[Kayden] So, I just...
258
00:17:23,300 --> 00:17:25,400
it's a sad, hard thing for me.
259
00:17:26,633 --> 00:17:30,166
I mean, it's -- I'm just trying
to do what I think is right.
260
00:17:31,033 --> 00:17:34,500
And so, I got a job offer
from Parker
261
00:17:35,133 --> 00:17:36,266
that I couldn't turn down.
262
00:17:44,867 --> 00:17:46,667
But it's a [bleep] thing,
263
00:17:47,266 --> 00:17:48,200
it really is.
-Mm-hmm.
264
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,367
[Kayden] But I just...
I have to...
265
00:17:51,967 --> 00:17:53,000
move over.
-Yeah, yeah.
266
00:17:54,500 --> 00:17:56,066
Uh...
267
00:18:00,266 --> 00:18:04,166
[Kayden]
It was definitely a tense
and stressful conversation.
268
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,967
I'm feeling a little upset,
but I'm also excited
269
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:09,400
for my future.
270
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,000
Ugh, [bleep].
271
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,166
It's a bit of a shock.
272
00:18:17,100 --> 00:18:20,767
I did not really expect
him to...vamoose.
273
00:18:21,533 --> 00:18:23,100
Between Brennan
and Kayden, like,
274
00:18:23,900 --> 00:18:25,166
it's gonna make
the 2,000-ounce goal
275
00:18:26,100 --> 00:18:27,500
a lot more [bleep] work.
276
00:18:27,967 --> 00:18:29,000
[sighs sharply]
277
00:18:42,300 --> 00:18:44,300
Things are going all right.
278
00:18:45,266 --> 00:18:47,000
Gold prices are up
a thousand bucks an ounce.
279
00:18:48,133 --> 00:18:50,166
Dominion has a lot of sluicing
that needs to get done.
280
00:18:51,133 --> 00:18:52,767
It's time to make hay
while the sun shines.
281
00:18:53,567 --> 00:18:55,166
Gold mining mogulParker Schnabel
282
00:18:56,100 --> 00:18:58,567
is gunning fora record-breaking season.
283
00:18:59,467 --> 00:19:01,400
To cash inon the sky-high gold price,
284
00:19:02,233 --> 00:19:04,767
he's chasinga massive 10,000 ounce,
285
00:19:05,266 --> 00:19:07,200
$35 million prize.
286
00:19:08,367 --> 00:19:12,800
A big key to hitting our goal
this year is gonna be just
287
00:19:13,667 --> 00:19:15,100
getting plants running
early as we can
288
00:19:15,734 --> 00:19:16,367
and keeping them running.
289
00:19:17,233 --> 00:19:19,600
People need to understand
what the...
290
00:19:20,467 --> 00:19:21,900
responsibilities and
expectations are.
291
00:19:22,700 --> 00:19:24,467
And, you know,
they need to be met.
292
00:19:27,667 --> 00:19:30,900
To hit his ambitious target,Parker's tasked
293
00:19:31,467 --> 00:19:32,467
his two lieutenants
294
00:19:33,467 --> 00:19:35,667
with sluicing more paydirtthan ever before.
295
00:19:38,367 --> 00:19:41,767
At Sulphur Creek,Mitch Blaschke is stripping
296
00:19:42,900 --> 00:19:46,266
a two-acre cut, hunting pocketsof gold left behind
297
00:19:46,700 --> 00:19:47,400
by old-timers.
298
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,166
You know, this cut is almost
half a mile long.
299
00:19:52,133 --> 00:19:54,467
It's just a lot
on everybody's plate each day.
300
00:19:55,467 --> 00:19:56,600
But we're making good progress
here at Sulphur.
301
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,367
At Parker's main operationon Dominion,
302
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,800
Tyson Lee is in chargeof two enormous cuts...
303
00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:10,800
the 114-acre Bridge Cut,
304
00:20:11,767 --> 00:20:13,867
where washplant Bobis already sluicing,
305
00:20:14,667 --> 00:20:17,100
and the new 52-acreGolden Mile,
306
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,266
where drill results to indicatethe cut could hold
307
00:20:21,900 --> 00:20:23,767
up to $12 million in gold.
308
00:20:26,266 --> 00:20:28,266
[Parker] We're gonna run
four plants this year.
309
00:20:29,333 --> 00:20:31,300
There's a lot of work to do
to get to that point.
310
00:20:32,367 --> 00:20:34,600
Last week, Tyson got Bob
fired up in the Bridge Cut.
311
00:20:35,567 --> 00:20:37,100
Now it's a matter of getting
Sluicifer set up
312
00:20:37,533 --> 00:20:38,266
in Golden Mile.
313
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:40,567
Alec and Liam have done
the complete rebuild
314
00:20:41,633 --> 00:20:44,066
on the plant, so we'll see
if we can resurrect her.
315
00:20:47,867 --> 00:20:50,567
Right now, I'm getting
pulled in polar opposite
316
00:20:51,333 --> 00:20:52,800
directions with
Bob and Sluicifer.
317
00:20:53,934 --> 00:20:56,200
Parker wants Sluicifer running
by the end of the week.
318
00:20:57,300 --> 00:20:59,166
There's a lot going on
and not much time to do it in.
319
00:21:00,100 --> 00:21:02,800
To help Tysonget Sluicifer running,
320
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,300
Parker's throwing himthe newest recruit...
321
00:21:08,367 --> 00:21:09,900
-[Tyson] Hello.
-[Kayden] Hello.
322
00:21:10,867 --> 00:21:13,066
...Kevin Beet's formeroperator, Kayden.
323
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,000
-[Tyson] How's it going?
-[Kayden] I'm good.
324
00:21:16,166 --> 00:21:17,867
[Tyson]
So we gotta get Sluicifer's
water recirculation
325
00:21:18,567 --> 00:21:19,400
system going.
-[Kayden] OK.
326
00:21:20,633 --> 00:21:22,567
[Tyson]
So we need to have these
culverts in, road activated
327
00:21:23,734 --> 00:21:25,367
by the end of the day, so we can
get Sluicifer in, have two
328
00:21:26,467 --> 00:21:28,266
washplants running on Dominion,
and keep Parker happy.
329
00:21:29,033 --> 00:21:29,900
Absolutely.
Sounds like a plan.
330
00:21:30,333 --> 00:21:31,200
Thanks, Tyson.
331
00:21:32,367 --> 00:21:33,867
In the Bridge Cut,
332
00:21:34,867 --> 00:21:36,767
washplant Bob has beenrunning for a week,
333
00:21:37,567 --> 00:21:41,100
bringing in126 ounces in gold.
334
00:21:42,166 --> 00:21:45,467
Now, one and a half milesnorth, Tyson must get
335
00:21:46,233 --> 00:21:48,100
the Golden Mileproducing too.
336
00:21:49,300 --> 00:21:53,667
First, Tyson needs Kaydento dig up the only access road
337
00:21:54,867 --> 00:21:58,266
to the cut and install a setof culverts for sluice water
338
00:21:58,734 --> 00:22:00,166
to pass through.
339
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,100
Once complete, Tyson will moveSluicifer from Parker's yard
340
00:22:06,300 --> 00:22:09,700
three miles to the Golden MileCut and fire up the plant
341
00:22:10,500 --> 00:22:13,100
for the first timein two years.
342
00:22:13,467 --> 00:22:15,967
[rumbling]
343
00:22:25,166 --> 00:22:27,800
[Kayden] Today's my first day
working for Parker.
344
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,367
That's a pretty big
responsibility that Tyson
345
00:22:32,233 --> 00:22:34,867
has given me.
I just can't [bleep] up.
346
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,800
I'm working in this really fine
wet material
347
00:22:38,467 --> 00:22:39,900
that's just like quicksand.
348
00:22:41,100 --> 00:22:43,767
So you just gotta be very
cautious or that will sink you.
349
00:22:44,867 --> 00:22:47,767
Just a little love tap,
get her level.
350
00:22:52,467 --> 00:22:55,266
Gentle, gentle.
351
00:22:58,567 --> 00:23:00,667
Oh, no, [bleep]!
352
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,667
I think I'm sinking.
353
00:23:03,166 --> 00:23:05,567
[rattling heavily]
354
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:09,667
No.
355
00:23:10,100 --> 00:23:11,066
She's in there.
356
00:23:12,166 --> 00:23:13,467
I can't get out of this.
357
00:23:15,767 --> 00:23:17,367
[sighs] [bleep].
358
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:22,567
Hey, Tyson, got a copy?
Tyson?
359
00:23:24,066 --> 00:23:25,367
[Tyson over radio]
Yeah, go ahead.
360
00:23:26,033 --> 00:23:26,900
[Kayden] Yeah, I [bleep] up.
361
00:23:27,333 --> 00:23:28,467
I sunk the 480.
362
00:23:29,333 --> 00:23:30,200
I'm gonna need your help
with another hoe
363
00:23:30,767 --> 00:23:31,467
to get this thing out.
364
00:23:32,567 --> 00:23:34,567
It's buried in there,
like top of the track frames.
365
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:36,900
I'll be there as soon
as possible.
366
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,667
Hopefully, this excavator
isn't very stuck,
367
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,767
because I got better [bleep]
to be doing.
368
00:23:47,967 --> 00:23:49,467
Never sunk a hoe before.
369
00:24:01,867 --> 00:24:02,867
I'm sorry.
370
00:24:03,667 --> 00:24:05,066
It's the first hoe
I've ever sunk.
371
00:24:06,967 --> 00:24:09,266
Let me just get in here
for a sec and...
372
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:10,467
see what we can do.
373
00:24:17,266 --> 00:24:19,867
Without this road
being reactivated,
374
00:24:20,734 --> 00:24:22,266
we can't get Sluicifer
up and running.
375
00:24:23,066 --> 00:24:24,467
So I've got to get
this thing out.
376
00:24:24,834 --> 00:24:26,967
[rattling]
377
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:28,467
Sure did a number
on that one.
378
00:24:29,700 --> 00:24:31,967
I hope this isn't
what gets me fired.
379
00:24:36,166 --> 00:24:39,400
Right now, we're just seeing
if it can lift itself.
380
00:24:40,333 --> 00:24:42,266
It seems to be able to.
That's a good sign.
381
00:24:43,367 --> 00:24:45,867
[rumbling]
382
00:24:54,667 --> 00:24:56,266
[Kayden]
Looks like he got her.
383
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,767
[Tyson]
Everyone has first-day nerves,
but, you know, hopefully,
384
00:25:03,767 --> 00:25:04,900
this is a lesson learned
for Kayden, you know?
385
00:25:06,467 --> 00:25:08,567
-All good.
-[Kayden] Thank you so much.
386
00:25:09,667 --> 00:25:11,300
-I'll get that culvert in.
-[Tyson] No worries, dude.
387
00:25:14,667 --> 00:25:16,467
[Kayden]
Tyson's a really great guy.
388
00:25:17,166 --> 00:25:18,166
I'm happy that he got it out,
389
00:25:19,233 --> 00:25:22,467
but at the same time,
I'm annoyed that he was able
390
00:25:23,100 --> 00:25:24,967
to do it, and I couldn't.
391
00:25:25,734 --> 00:25:27,467
That definitely
makes me feel like
392
00:25:28,133 --> 00:25:28,967
I always have more to learn.
393
00:25:29,767 --> 00:25:32,367
I'm about to throw
our culvert in.
394
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,767
-[heavy thud]
-And, pow!
395
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:37,500
Just like that, baby!
396
00:25:41,567 --> 00:25:44,166
Now, time to do a little bit
of backfilling.
397
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:48,200
Clean up the road.
398
00:25:49,166 --> 00:25:50,367
Good enough.
399
00:25:55,266 --> 00:25:59,100
Tyson can now move Sluiciferinto the Golden Mile
400
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,066
and will soon find out how muchhis new cut will pay out.
401
00:26:04,934 --> 00:26:05,400
[Tyson] One step
in the right direction.
402
00:26:05,967 --> 00:26:06,567
Now let's take her home.
403
00:26:07,734 --> 00:26:08,266
Let's try and get some dirt
going through her by the end
404
00:26:08,834 --> 00:26:09,667
of the week for Parker.
405
00:26:17,100 --> 00:26:19,266
[birds chirping]
406
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,767
[Rick] We've got a deal
on Lightning Creek.
407
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:25,266
Troy drove a hard bargain.
408
00:26:26,467 --> 00:26:27,767
Is it a risk?
Absolutely.
409
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:29,900
But with the gold
prices right now,
410
00:26:30,533 --> 00:26:31,000
now's the time to strike.
411
00:26:31,567 --> 00:26:32,867
Time is of the essence.
412
00:26:34,100 --> 00:26:37,667
In the mountains above Keno,Rick Ness is back in the game,
413
00:26:38,633 --> 00:26:40,400
having secured a leaseon Lightning Creek.
414
00:26:41,233 --> 00:26:41,900
[Rick] Now we just gotta
get the gold.
415
00:26:42,967 --> 00:26:44,367
Today, we're gonna start
moving the gear down there,
416
00:26:45,533 --> 00:26:46,467
get our excavators down there,
our trucks, and hopefully,
417
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:48,000
by the end of the day,
we're breaking dirt
418
00:26:49,033 --> 00:26:49,767
at Lightning Creek,
and that's all that matters.
419
00:26:55,467 --> 00:26:56,700
Going on here?
420
00:26:57,133 --> 00:26:58,467
Who we got here?
421
00:26:58,867 --> 00:26:59,900
Who's that?
422
00:27:00,533 --> 00:27:01,066
Rick's best friend...
423
00:27:02,967 --> 00:27:04,266
Oh, Zee!
424
00:27:05,300 --> 00:27:07,567
...Zee Zaremba and a newrecruit have arrived.
425
00:27:08,467 --> 00:27:09,867
[Rick] Good to see you, buddy.
426
00:27:10,433 --> 00:27:11,367
-Ahh!
-[dog barking]
427
00:27:12,500 --> 00:27:13,667
-How you doing? I'm Rick.
-Hey, I'm Kai.
428
00:27:14,066 --> 00:27:14,800
[Rick] Kai.
429
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:16,266
[Zee] This is the one I was
telling you about.
430
00:27:17,433 --> 00:27:20,266
To bolster Rick's skeletoncrew, Zee has brought along
431
00:27:20,934 --> 00:27:23,100
new recruit, Kai Shallcross.
432
00:27:23,934 --> 00:27:24,567
Have you ever run
a six-wheel-drive
433
00:27:25,300 --> 00:27:26,266
off-road truck?
-No, I haven't.
434
00:27:28,266 --> 00:27:31,467
I think the biggest piece
of equipment I've driven
435
00:27:32,266 --> 00:27:33,266
is probably like
a mini-excavator.
436
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,867
[Rick] Uh...Let's start.
437
00:27:38,467 --> 00:27:39,700
Good kid?
438
00:27:40,266 --> 00:27:41,066
[Zee] Yeah, good kid.
439
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:44,567
[Rick] I say let's get
to Lightning Creek
440
00:27:45,066 --> 00:27:46,100
and get to mining.
441
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:47,667
-All right, I'm ready.
-Sick.
442
00:27:48,300 --> 00:27:48,767
[Zee] All right, let's go.
443
00:27:55,467 --> 00:27:57,300
-[Rick] Let's go!
-[Kai] Copy that.
444
00:27:58,834 --> 00:28:03,200
To get on the gold, Rick needsto move his fleet of big iron
445
00:28:04,166 --> 00:28:06,767
from Duncan Creek,eight miles northwest,
446
00:28:07,967 --> 00:28:11,800
to his new, leased 1,600-acreclaim at Lightning Creek,
447
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,867
where he hopes to pick upthe trail of gold
448
00:28:15,633 --> 00:28:17,200
near its sourceat Mount Hinton.
449
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,567
[epic music plays]
450
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,000
Finally gonna be able to go
move some dirt, eh?
451
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,266
Yeah, we got some gold
in the box.
452
00:28:33,767 --> 00:28:35,066
1800 ounces, boys.
453
00:28:39,367 --> 00:28:41,700
[Zee] It's good to see Rick
going gung-ho as always.
454
00:28:42,867 --> 00:28:44,166
I mean, every season, it seems
like there's a new hurdle
455
00:28:44,867 --> 00:28:46,567
for him, but he overcomes it.
456
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:48,500
Either he's really good
at what he does, or luck,
457
00:28:49,066 --> 00:28:49,800
or a little bit of both.
458
00:28:57,367 --> 00:28:58,867
Four hours later...
459
00:29:00,700 --> 00:29:02,166
Hey, Rick, are we there yet?
460
00:29:04,266 --> 00:29:05,767
[Rick] Yeah, we're here.
461
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:07,000
[Kai] Awesome.
462
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:11,900
[Rick] Well,
we're at Lightning Creek.
463
00:29:14,567 --> 00:29:15,767
Let's talk about a plan here.
464
00:29:17,700 --> 00:29:20,367
So we've got, yeah, a lot
to figure out, but I don't think
465
00:29:21,266 --> 00:29:21,900
it's gonna be that
technically difficult.
466
00:29:22,867 --> 00:29:24,467
It's supposed to be
12 to 15 feet of pay...
467
00:29:25,734 --> 00:29:27,000
-For five feet.
-...with five feet of overburden
on top of it.
468
00:29:27,934 --> 00:29:28,567
-But I think
that we're up for it.
-Yeah.
469
00:29:29,367 --> 00:29:29,900
I don't know what
you guys think.
470
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,400
Yeah, absolutely.
471
00:29:32,367 --> 00:29:34,600
You got a name
picked out for this spot yet?
472
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:36,767
Well, from above, it actually
looks a bit like a diamond,
473
00:29:37,567 --> 00:29:38,567
so I was thinking of
"Diamond Cut."
474
00:29:39,734 --> 00:29:40,367
There's some stuff to figure
out yet, I'm not gonna lie,
475
00:29:41,333 --> 00:29:42,500
but this is the year
to swing for the fences.
476
00:29:43,633 --> 00:29:45,166
So I'd say, let's get down here
and start slinging dirt.
477
00:29:45,900 --> 00:29:46,767
-Great.
-All right, sounds good.
478
00:29:52,867 --> 00:29:56,100
Rick's first targetinga two-acre area
479
00:29:56,900 --> 00:29:58,767
Troy began strippinglast season.
480
00:30:01,567 --> 00:30:03,000
Everyone's been sitting
around, and this is what
481
00:30:03,867 --> 00:30:04,767
they've been waiting for.
Time to go.
482
00:30:06,700 --> 00:30:10,367
And he'll have to navigateKeno's notoriously spotty
483
00:30:10,967 --> 00:30:12,700
ground on a new claim.
484
00:30:13,767 --> 00:30:15,900
We don't have the best
situation to deal with here.
485
00:30:17,166 --> 00:30:18,567
We got a short season to kind
of figure out where the gold is.
486
00:30:19,433 --> 00:30:20,667
We need to get
over 100 ounces a week.
487
00:30:21,433 --> 00:30:22,900
Can we pull it
from this valley?
488
00:30:23,967 --> 00:30:25,467
It could be spotty,
and if we dig the wrong spot,
489
00:30:26,133 --> 00:30:26,767
we may not find gold at all.
490
00:30:27,934 --> 00:30:28,767
And if we dig the right spot,
we might hit it, you know?
491
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:31,700
So it's exciting and nauseating
at the same time.
492
00:30:51,367 --> 00:30:53,000
[Alec] It's a monumental day
out here.
493
00:30:53,967 --> 00:30:55,200
We're gonna get Sluicifer
set up on Dominion
494
00:30:55,734 --> 00:30:56,500
for the first time.
495
00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,767
[Tyson] It's about time
we knock the rust off her
496
00:31:00,467 --> 00:31:01,367
and get her back to work.
497
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,166
At Parker's Schnabel's...
498
00:31:04,100 --> 00:31:05,266
[Tyson] Wanna jump in the loader
and line up?
499
00:31:06,533 --> 00:31:09,266
...Tyson and his crew are readyto move washplant Sluicifer
500
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:10,767
to the Golden Mile.
501
00:31:12,166 --> 00:31:14,767
This plant
was the plant I learned on,
502
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:16,166
and it's the plant that's gonna
503
00:31:16,967 --> 00:31:17,800
make us a lot
of money this year.
504
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,300
Yo, Alec!
Is everyone clear?
505
00:31:28,700 --> 00:31:29,467
[Alec] Yeah.
506
00:31:30,900 --> 00:31:34,166
[machines creaking, rumbling]
507
00:31:37,166 --> 00:31:38,800
You know,
Sluicifer is my baby girl,
508
00:31:39,433 --> 00:31:40,166
and I'm dragging her home.
509
00:31:41,767 --> 00:31:42,700
Let's go!
510
00:31:43,467 --> 00:31:44,767
We've got some work
to do, girl!
511
00:31:45,266 --> 00:31:46,000
[Alec] Good there.
512
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,567
Tailings conveyor...
513
00:31:51,367 --> 00:31:52,867
[Alec]
Yeah, Tyson, walk forwards.
514
00:31:53,567 --> 00:31:55,200
...and sluice runs mounted...
515
00:31:55,734 --> 00:31:56,800
[Alec] There we go.
516
00:31:57,867 --> 00:31:59,767
All right, we're gonna pull
Sluicifer up the hill.
517
00:32:00,934 --> 00:32:04,767
...Tyson pullsthe fully-assembled45-ton beast
518
00:32:06,100 --> 00:32:08,500
100 feet onto the pad.
519
00:32:10,367 --> 00:32:13,266
I just got to spin Sluicifer
into place.
520
00:32:16,467 --> 00:32:19,000
Come on!
Let's go!
521
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:20,967
[Alec]
You got about five feet now.
522
00:32:23,100 --> 00:32:24,800
[Tyson]
That's pretty much there.
523
00:32:26,567 --> 00:32:28,000
Guys, we really killed it here.
524
00:32:28,867 --> 00:32:30,600
We got Sluicifer
up to the Golden Mile.
525
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:32,266
-Let's get her done.
-[Alec] Yeah, definitely.
526
00:32:32,633 --> 00:32:33,567
Nice work!
527
00:32:35,467 --> 00:32:37,700
[energetic music plays]
528
00:32:41,700 --> 00:32:43,100
[Liam] And stop there.
529
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,567
Two years since she lastwashed rocks, Sluicifer is
530
00:32:49,633 --> 00:32:52,900
ready to catch an estimated3,500 ounces buried
531
00:32:53,433 --> 00:32:54,467
in the Golden Mile.
532
00:32:55,500 --> 00:32:56,800
This is the first time
that Sluicifer's fired up
533
00:32:57,467 --> 00:32:58,667
on Dominion, so that's cool.
534
00:32:59,834 --> 00:33:01,867
Some of that ground
is looking really good.
535
00:33:02,567 --> 00:33:03,900
Let's hope it mines that way.
536
00:33:04,567 --> 00:33:05,266
Who wants to do the honors?
537
00:33:06,233 --> 00:33:07,166
You press the conveyor,
you press the shaker.
538
00:33:08,100 --> 00:33:09,200
Ready?
539
00:33:11,166 --> 00:33:12,400
Let's go!
540
00:33:12,934 --> 00:33:15,767
[machinery roaring]
541
00:33:19,867 --> 00:33:22,567
Hey, Sandy, start feeding.
Make this one count.
542
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:27,767
[Sandy] Whoo!
543
00:33:32,667 --> 00:33:35,500
[thrilling music plays]
544
00:33:39,867 --> 00:33:41,767
This is a moment I never
thought would happen.
545
00:33:42,633 --> 00:33:45,266
Sluicifer's firing back up
on Dominion.
546
00:33:45,900 --> 00:33:46,667
First time of the season.
547
00:33:50,467 --> 00:33:53,700
-How's she running?
-Pretty darn smooth.
548
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:55,567
[Parker] Well, hopefully
it stays that way.
549
00:33:56,667 --> 00:33:57,567
-Good job with the setup, dude.
-[Tyson] Thanks, man.
550
00:33:59,166 --> 00:34:00,867
I got to go.
See you guys.
551
00:34:01,567 --> 00:34:02,200
-Good job!
-[Alec] Thank you.
552
00:34:03,133 --> 00:34:03,900
-You guys are
[bleep] killing it!
-Whoo!
553
00:34:05,667 --> 00:34:06,967
[Tyson] Nice work, guys.
554
00:34:07,233 --> 00:34:08,467
Yay!
555
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:10,266
Washplant number two
up and running.
556
00:34:11,567 --> 00:34:13,266
Two down, two to go.
557
00:34:14,066 --> 00:34:14,567
We got the two main
ones running,
558
00:34:15,100 --> 00:34:15,700
that's what matters.
559
00:34:17,567 --> 00:34:18,900
Hopefully we find some gold.
560
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,467
[Tatiana] So I just arrived
here at Sluicifer,
561
00:34:33,433 --> 00:34:35,767
so we're doing
the first cleanup since 2023.
562
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,000
I heard there might be a lot
of gold in the runs,
563
00:34:38,667 --> 00:34:39,767
but we're about to find out.
564
00:34:41,266 --> 00:34:45,000
Parker's trusted washplant,Sluicifer, has been running
565
00:34:45,734 --> 00:34:48,367
Golden Mile pay for 24 hours.
566
00:34:49,066 --> 00:34:50,367
[Chris] Hey there, young man.
567
00:34:51,367 --> 00:34:52,200
-[Parker] Hey, Chris.
-[Chris] How's it going?
568
00:34:53,133 --> 00:34:53,667
I've got a lot of good
memories right here.
569
00:34:54,734 --> 00:34:56,266
[Chris] Yeah, when we had
that 400-ouncer in here,
570
00:34:56,767 --> 00:34:57,500
that was awesome.
571
00:34:58,400 --> 00:34:59,367
That was so fun.
572
00:35:00,367 --> 00:35:01,500
[Parker] I was talking
to my dad yesterday,
573
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:03,200
I was telling him everything
that we've got going on,
574
00:35:04,333 --> 00:35:05,767
and he's like,
"My, is Chris gonna be able
to keep up
575
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:07,567
in that gold room of his?"
576
00:35:08,233 --> 00:35:08,867
And I'm like, "I hope not."
577
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:10,000
[Chris laughs] Yeah.
578
00:35:10,900 --> 00:35:11,667
No, I'm gonna
fight you tooth-and-nail.
579
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:13,166
I'm gonna
push you guys hard.
580
00:35:18,700 --> 00:35:21,166
[lively music plays]
581
00:35:23,100 --> 00:35:24,867
-[Minnie] Hi, guys.
-[Mike and Monica] Hello.
582
00:35:25,967 --> 00:35:27,467
So how are you doing
on the Hill, Mike?
583
00:35:28,266 --> 00:35:28,767
[Mike] I have a ton
I gotta strip,
584
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,700
so I've got a lot to do.
585
00:35:32,300 --> 00:35:33,266
How's it going out here?
586
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:34,467
[Mike] Pretty good.
587
00:35:35,633 --> 00:35:36,367
[Ruby] I hear you guys are
having a little bit of trouble
588
00:35:37,233 --> 00:35:38,867
with the beavers.
-[Mike] Well, yeah.
589
00:35:41,367 --> 00:35:43,300
-[Mike] Yeah.
-So what do you think?
590
00:35:43,934 --> 00:35:44,667
Should we weigh some gold?
591
00:35:45,233 --> 00:35:47,667
-[Tony speaking]
-Cool.
592
00:35:48,767 --> 00:35:51,166
Despite the beavers shuttingdown their only working
593
00:35:52,367 --> 00:35:55,767
washplant for half a day,Tony expects the Indian River's
594
00:35:56,767 --> 00:36:00,600
Early Bird Cut to deliveraround 250 ounces.
595
00:36:01,300 --> 00:36:05,100
[Ruby] 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 50...
596
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,266
80...
597
00:36:07,900 --> 00:36:13,200
120, 150, 180, 190, 200...
598
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,200
[tapping softly]
599
00:36:17,500 --> 00:36:19,500
214.6.
600
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,166
It's below target,
601
00:36:22,767 --> 00:36:24,266
but still worth almost
602
00:36:25,133 --> 00:36:26,900
three quartersof a million dollars,
603
00:36:27,834 --> 00:36:31,800
And brings the Beets totalto 632 ounces,
604
00:36:32,667 --> 00:36:34,767
nearly a tenthof Tony's season goal.
605
00:36:35,867 --> 00:36:36,867
That's not bad.
606
00:36:37,333 --> 00:36:38,000
[Tony speaking]
607
00:36:38,767 --> 00:36:39,900
Keep it up.
I kind of like that.
608
00:36:40,700 --> 00:36:41,567
Don't come back
with anything less.
609
00:36:44,700 --> 00:36:46,166
[Minnie] Not bad at all.
610
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:47,467
[Tony speaking]
611
00:36:50,266 --> 00:36:52,900
[Minnie] OK, you guys
all should go back to work.
612
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:54,600
-[Ruby] See you.
-[Monica] See you later.
613
00:37:04,867 --> 00:37:08,166
At Scribner,Kevin Beets has visitors
614
00:37:09,100 --> 00:37:10,867
for his second gold weighof the season.
615
00:37:11,767 --> 00:37:12,667
-[Faith] Hi, family.
-[Ruby] How are you?
616
00:37:15,266 --> 00:37:17,300
How's your season going
so far, guys?
617
00:37:17,834 --> 00:37:19,166
[Kevin] Long, tired.
618
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,500
Having lost two key crewmembers in two weeks,
619
00:37:24,667 --> 00:37:27,066
Kevin's about to find outif it's damaged his chances
620
00:37:27,867 --> 00:37:29,900
of hittinghis 2,000-ounce target.
621
00:37:30,934 --> 00:37:31,867
[Ruby] Well, we drove by
and you guys are sluicing.
622
00:37:32,433 --> 00:37:32,867
[Kevin and Faith] Yeah.
623
00:37:33,700 --> 00:37:34,266
[Faith]
We unfortunately lost Kayden.
624
00:37:34,867 --> 00:37:35,367
-[Kevin] Yeah.
-Really?
625
00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:36,567
That kind of sucks.
626
00:37:37,333 --> 00:37:38,500
I thought he was
quite happy here.
627
00:37:39,300 --> 00:37:39,667
Some things didn't
quite work out,
628
00:37:40,333 --> 00:37:41,266
so he moved over
to Parker's.
629
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,266
[Tony chuckles]
630
00:37:49,033 --> 00:37:49,767
-Such a caring man.
-[all laugh]
631
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:53,867
[Kevin]
At least on the bright side,
632
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,767
we have some gold
to weigh up.
633
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,000
[Tony speaking]
634
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,467
Kevin spent a weeksluicing wet pay
635
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:03,900
from his stockpiled piggy bank.
636
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:05,767
To stay on target,
637
00:38:06,433 --> 00:38:08,000
he needs 88 ounces a week...
638
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,200
[Kevin] One, five, ten...
639
00:38:15,667 --> 00:38:20,867
24, 34, 44, 46...
640
00:38:21,166 --> 00:38:23,266
48.46.
641
00:38:23,767 --> 00:38:26,767
...worth $170,000.
642
00:38:27,700 --> 00:38:29,066
Just over 100 ounces
for the season so far.
643
00:38:30,233 --> 00:38:31,100
I mean, obviously, we'd like
to see some bigger numbers,
644
00:38:31,667 --> 00:38:32,667
so we'll do what we can.
645
00:38:36,500 --> 00:38:38,000
Anyways, we should all
get back to work.
646
00:38:38,433 --> 00:38:40,967
[Tony speaking]
647
00:38:41,934 --> 00:38:43,066
You know what, Faith?
It works really well.
648
00:38:43,734 --> 00:38:44,767
[Ruby] Bye, guys.
See you.
649
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:46,100
[Tony speaking]
650
00:38:46,934 --> 00:38:47,367
[Faith]
It was lovely to see everyone.
651
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:48,667
It was great.
652
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:50,800
It'd be nice to have a bit
more on the scale next time,
653
00:38:51,734 --> 00:38:53,100
but it'll come with time.
We'll get there.
654
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,600
[bird chirping]
655
00:39:04,266 --> 00:39:05,467
[Mitch] Oh, yeah.
656
00:39:07,367 --> 00:39:08,600
[Parker]
Are you gonna behave?
657
00:39:10,166 --> 00:39:12,400
Looks like he's
in a behaving mood.
658
00:39:12,900 --> 00:39:14,100
What's up, buddy?
659
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,767
After getting Sluiciferup and running,
660
00:39:17,734 --> 00:39:20,467
Parker's hopingfor a big uptick in gold.
661
00:39:21,333 --> 00:39:21,867
You had quite a week,
it sounds like.
662
00:39:22,300 --> 00:39:22,867
[Tyson] Yeah.
663
00:39:23,633 --> 00:39:25,367
Yeah, well, you hired
on Kayden.
664
00:39:25,667 --> 00:39:26,467
Yeah.
665
00:39:27,300 --> 00:39:28,100
One of Kevin's
old employees, right?
666
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:30,100
[Parker] Yeah.
667
00:39:32,300 --> 00:39:34,467
So is Kevin even gonna have
a crew left by the time
668
00:39:35,033 --> 00:39:35,767
when we're done here?
669
00:39:36,633 --> 00:39:37,166
[Brennan] I worked with him
last year.
670
00:39:38,066 --> 00:39:39,367
He's a good kid.
Like, he's a hard worker.
671
00:39:40,500 --> 00:39:41,867
So we got two plants going.
672
00:39:42,934 --> 00:39:43,367
-You want to see
how we're doing?
-[Parker] Yeah,
673
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:45,100
[Chris] You wanna read
this one out?
674
00:39:45,934 --> 00:39:47,200
[Tyson] Here we go.
This one's Bob.
675
00:39:48,066 --> 00:39:51,066
Last week, Bob delivered126 ounces.
676
00:39:51,967 --> 00:39:53,867
Parker's hopingit's picked up the pace.
677
00:39:55,900 --> 00:40:01,000
[Tyson] We got...
10, 20, 40, 60...
678
00:40:01,633 --> 00:40:07,100
80, 100, 120, 140, 150...
679
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,467
161.8.
680
00:40:10,667 --> 00:40:12,567
You're not really racing out
of the [bleep] starting gate.
681
00:40:13,700 --> 00:40:15,166
But it puts us
a lot better shape
682
00:40:15,867 --> 00:40:16,600
than where we were
last year.
683
00:40:18,266 --> 00:40:19,300
I got Sluice.
684
00:40:20,100 --> 00:40:20,767
Finally got Sluice
up and running.
685
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,100
[Tyson]
Yeah, first time on Dominion.
Let's see how it did.
686
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,900
Running the Golden Milefor three days,
687
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,300
this is Parker's first chance
688
00:40:30,166 --> 00:40:32,266
to see how the new cutwill pay out.
689
00:40:33,333 --> 00:40:34,166
So there's definitely
some rich ground over there.
690
00:40:34,867 --> 00:40:35,367
[Brennan] I'm excited for that.
691
00:40:36,900 --> 00:40:38,266
[Tyson] Here we go!
692
00:40:38,767 --> 00:40:41,667
10, 20, 50, 70...
693
00:40:42,066 --> 00:40:44,767
100, 110...
694
00:40:45,066 --> 00:40:46,367
112.1!
695
00:40:48,767 --> 00:40:50,400
-[Brennan] Nice!
-Not bad.
696
00:40:51,033 --> 00:40:51,667
[Brennan] Not bad at all.
697
00:40:52,500 --> 00:40:55,467
For the week,
we got 273.9 ounces...
698
00:40:56,367 --> 00:40:59,667
...worth just undera million dollars.
699
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,066
For the season, it's 399.7.
700
00:41:04,367 --> 00:41:06,100
[Parker]
Still a long ways to go.
701
00:41:07,233 --> 00:41:08,066
And you guys will have a third
one fired up this week,
702
00:41:08,900 --> 00:41:11,500
probably, huh?
-Uh, maybe two weeks.
703
00:41:12,533 --> 00:41:13,200
We better get on and find
some more gold, Tyson,
704
00:41:13,967 --> 00:41:14,867
to keep us rolling.
-[all laugh]
705
00:41:15,533 --> 00:41:16,166
Yeah, you guys better start
706
00:41:17,066 --> 00:41:18,567
pulling your [bleep] weight
around here.
707
00:41:19,767 --> 00:41:20,467
[Tyson] You know, it's great
to have two washplants running
708
00:41:21,367 --> 00:41:22,367
on Dominion, but we really
need a third.
709
00:41:22,934 --> 00:41:23,367
Then we can really start
710
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:25,000
getting some good numbers
coming in.
