00:00:21,867 --> 00:00:22,600
Boom up a little bit, Jordy.
4
00:00:25,767 --> 00:00:27,100
Parker wants to move more dirt
than ever before,
5
00:00:27,900 --> 00:00:29,567
so these 550s
will be the answer.
6
00:00:31,867 --> 00:00:34,567
It all slides nicely when
it's brand new, huh?
7
00:00:35,033 --> 00:00:35,567
[Jordy] Perfect!
8
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:37,367
[Taylor]
We can send this bad boy out.

00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:43,767
Hey, Parker,
you got a copy, Parker?
11
00:00:44,467 --> 00:00:45,066
[Parker] Hey, what's going on?
12
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:46,867
[Taylor] Yeah, bro,
this 550's on its way.
13
00:00:48,166 --> 00:00:49,667
I'm just heading over
to Sulphur.
14
00:00:50,333 --> 00:00:51,300
We had a new toy delivered,
15
00:00:52,100 --> 00:00:53,367
so I'm just going
to check it out.
16
00:00:58,467 --> 00:00:59,667
I don't know what the fun is
17
00:01:00,433 --> 00:01:01,767
in having a dirt-moving company
18
00:01:02,533 --> 00:01:03,867
if you can't have
new equipment.
19
00:01:04,433 --> 00:01:05,567

21
00:01:11,300 --> 00:01:13,266
is sittingin the driver's seat.
22
00:01:14,033 --> 00:01:15,600
Just three weeksinto the season,
23
00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:19,266
he's banked morethan $2 million in gold
24
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,367
from his Dominion Creek claims.
25
00:01:22,433 --> 00:01:26,700
Now he's eager to find outif the gamble he took
26
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,500
at Sulphur Creek will pay out.
27
00:01:31,100 --> 00:01:32,667
[Parker] We ordered
oversize buckets.
28
00:01:33,533 --> 00:01:34,166
I'm not sure how
it's gonna like this.
29
00:01:35,433 --> 00:01:38,200
They just started hauling pay
out of the pit here at Sulphur,
30
00:01:39,166 --> 00:01:41,000
and I'm just making
more room for stockpile.
31
00:01:41,900 --> 00:01:43,600
The thing is pretty sweet.
32
00:01:44,767 --> 00:01:46,367
But that's a six-and-a-quarter
yard bucket, which is huge
33
00:01:46,934 --> 00:01:47,600
for this size machine.
34
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:49,000
The bigger the bucket,
the better.
35
00:01:50,900 --> 00:01:53,000
Absolutely chewing
through the ground.
36
00:01:57,266 --> 00:01:59,567
Basically, we're
under the gun for time.
37
00:02:00,967 --> 00:02:02,767
The water license here
at Sulphur expires soon,
38
00:02:03,900 --> 00:02:06,000
and I don't wanna be put
in a position where, much like
39
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,900
Rick Ness is right now,
where we are desperately
40
00:02:10,867 --> 00:02:11,967
waiting and hoping
for a license that we need
41
00:02:12,734 --> 00:02:14,767
in order to do
what we wanna do.
42
00:02:15,667 --> 00:02:19,300
Mined since 1898,Sulphur Creek's gold
43
00:02:20,166 --> 00:02:22,500
is legendary,with stories of nuggets

sitting on the creek bed.
45
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,667
To date,it's paid out $1.2 billion,
46
00:02:30,233 --> 00:02:31,300
and Parker's praying
47
00:02:32,166 --> 00:02:34,367
there's still big goldin the ground.
48
00:02:35,100 --> 00:02:36,100
[Parker]
I'm definitely worried.
49
00:02:37,033 --> 00:02:38,467
Sulphur's a really tricky
piece of ground.
50
00:02:39,433 --> 00:02:41,500
Are we doing all of this
on Sulphur at the cost
51
00:02:42,133 --> 00:02:43,300
of getting Dominion done?
52
00:02:44,233 --> 00:02:45,500
Like, that's the question
that haunts me.
53
00:02:46,066 --> 00:02:47,467
[ominous music plays]
54
00:02:49,900 --> 00:02:51,400
[Brennan] Beautiful new toy!
55
00:02:52,100 --> 00:02:53,166
That only took me 30 seconds.
56
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:54,767
[Brennan laughs]
57
00:02:55,900 --> 00:02:56,800
[Parker] So far, it's handling
this bucket really well.
58
00:02:57,834 --> 00:02:58,400
It looked like it.
You were full extension there.
59
00:02:59,066 --> 00:02:59,567
-Yeah.
-I was like, "Wow."
60
00:03:00,667 --> 00:03:01,600
Dude, look at how wide it is
compared to the 480.
61
00:03:02,500 --> 00:03:03,367
-[Brennan] That's insane!
-[Mitch] Yeah.
62
00:03:04,266 --> 00:03:05,700
[Brennan]
Nice purchase there, boss man.
63
00:03:06,734 --> 00:03:07,700
-[Parker] Special delivery.
-[Mitch] Thank you.
64
00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:11,500
[Parker] So the big thing,
getting you sluicing
65
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,000
as soon as we can.
66
00:03:13,934 --> 00:03:14,467
[Mitch] How much time
do we have for that?
67
00:03:15,967 --> 00:03:18,266
I was hoping that we could be
sluicing within a week.
68
00:03:18,834 --> 00:03:20,600
[dramatic music plays]
69
00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:22,667
-[Parker] I'm excited.
-Yeah? [chuckles]
70
00:03:23,633 --> 00:03:24,467
[Parker] I want to get
another plant running.
71
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:27,200
And so that's
your guys' challenge.
72
00:03:27,633 --> 00:03:28,300
It's a big one.
73
00:03:32,767 --> 00:03:34,900
They have a nice,
shiny new excavator.
74
00:03:35,900 --> 00:03:37,066
That should give them
some solid reliability.
75
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,367
And hopefully,
here in three or four days,
76
00:03:40,367 --> 00:03:41,767
we'll have a washplant
banging away at Sulphur.
77
00:03:43,300 --> 00:03:45,767
[thrilling music plays]
78
00:03:47,567 --> 00:03:49,166
[Mitch]
Yo, Brennan, you got a copy?
79
00:03:50,100 --> 00:03:51,166
Dude, you can just hear
that clock ticking
80
00:03:51,734 --> 00:03:52,767
every minute down here.
81
00:03:53,734 --> 00:03:54,667
We're getting closer
to running out of time.
82
00:03:55,467 --> 00:03:56,166
[Brennan]
It's a big undertaking.
83
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,567
The six-yard bucket will make
up for some serious lost time.
84
00:04:00,433 --> 00:04:01,166
Well, man, he wants
10,000 ounces.
85
00:04:02,166 --> 00:04:03,667
A good part of that's gotta
come out of here.
86
00:04:04,166 --> 00:04:05,266
Hell yeah, buddy.
87
00:04:06,266 --> 00:04:07,567
This is a pretty cool
treasure hunt to be on.
88
00:04:08,834 --> 00:04:11,266
This property's been hammered
so hard, you get really worried
89
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,100
about, man, are we gonna
move all this dirt?
90
00:04:13,734 --> 00:04:14,166
And at the end of the day,
91
00:04:15,033 --> 00:04:16,266
is there gonna be
nothing left in it?
92
00:04:16,767 --> 00:04:18,266
[loader rumbling]
93
00:04:20,266 --> 00:04:23,200
At Sulphur Creek,Mitch and Brennan
94
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,166
are on a treasure hunt.
95
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:26,800
For the last three weeks,
96
00:04:27,667 --> 00:04:29,467
they've been clearingoverburden away
97
00:04:30,667 --> 00:04:33,700
from a narrow two-acre cutnext to the bank of the valley
98
00:04:34,533 --> 00:04:36,467
searching for gold-richvirgin pay
99
00:04:37,300 --> 00:04:39,000
that an old-timer'sdredge missed.
100
00:04:40,233 --> 00:04:44,767
Now, down to pay, they needto dig it out and stockpile it
101
00:04:45,967 --> 00:04:49,500
at the mouth of the cut, thenbring in washplant Roxanne
102
00:04:50,367 --> 00:04:52,300
and fire it upby the end of the week.
103
00:04:57,166 --> 00:04:59,166
[Mitch]
This cut is very narrow,
104
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:00,567
not a lot of room to work.
105
00:05:01,900 --> 00:05:04,900
We've got all this groundwater
that's pouring in on us.
106
00:05:05,734 --> 00:05:06,867
All this material,
it's so saturated,
107
00:05:07,567 --> 00:05:09,066
we've gotta try
and dry it up.
108
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:10,600
You know, then we've gotta
pile all this up
109
00:05:11,033 --> 00:05:11,867
into a pay pile.
110
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,500
The wetter it is,
the harder all that is.
111
00:05:15,734 --> 00:05:17,100
The trucks will do better when
they're running on dry ground.
112

[Sean] This pay we're
hauling here, it's real wet.
114
00:05:23,767 --> 00:05:25,367

118
00:05:34,266 --> 00:05:35,300
[Jordan]
With the amount of pay we got
coming in from the cut,
119
00:05:36,533 --> 00:05:38,100
there's not really any place
where we can put it, so we have
120
00:05:39,233 --> 00:05:39,867
to drive over the stuff
we already put here, but it was
121
00:05:40,667 --> 00:05:41,500
just shlop we hauled in
from there.

This stuff sucks, man.

to even drive through.

-[Sean] Whoa! [bleep]!

There she goes.

Jordan's truck rolled over.
128
00:05:57,166 --> 00:05:57,900
Uh, Mitch.

00:05:58,767 --> 00:05:59,767
-You got a copy, Mitch?
-Yeah, go ahead.
130
00:06:00,700 --> 00:06:01,467
[Sean] I got a truck flipped
over here.
131
00:06:01,900 --> 00:06:02,867
It's Jordy's.
132
00:06:04,066 --> 00:06:05,800
The box is over,
not completely,
133
00:06:06,433 --> 00:06:07,100
but it's definitely over.
134
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:11,467
[Mitch] It's fine.
I'll get up there.
135
00:06:13,300 --> 00:06:16,400
I'm surprised that it took this
long for something to happen.
136
00:06:17,667 --> 00:06:19,166
[Sean] Never a dull moment.
137
00:06:20,500 --> 00:06:23,567
[Mitch] See, they got their tire
up on a high point there
138
00:06:24,100 --> 00:06:25,300
and rolled her over,
139
00:06:26,467 --> 00:06:28,066
so I get it back on its feet.
140
00:06:29,166 --> 00:06:30,266
You ready, Jordan?
141
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:32,700
Just put it in neutral.
142
00:06:34,567 --> 00:06:36,367
Just flip back over.
143

[creaking, rattling]
144
00:06:43,467 --> 00:06:45,166
Ooh, that's heavy.
145
00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:49,667
Try and gently drive forward.

00:06:50,700 --> 00:06:51,967
If I honk, stop.

[truck revving]
148
00:06:59,166 --> 00:07:00,767
Go ahead and dump
that pile right there.
149
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,266
And don't go back
that far anymore.
150
00:07:03,834 --> 00:07:04,367
Please and thank you.
151
00:07:05,667 --> 00:07:07,000
[Jordan] You know,
it's just a lot of pressure
152
00:07:07,567 --> 00:07:08,166
being put on us here,
153
00:07:08,967 --> 00:07:09,467
having to haul
all this [bleep] out
154
00:07:10,133 --> 00:07:10,767
by the end of the week here,
155
00:07:11,834 --> 00:07:13,400
and sometimes [bleep]
just ends up going sideways.
156
00:07:15,567 --> 00:07:17,567
[Mitch] Everybody's doing
everything we can here.
157
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,500
If we fall short on getting
this ground sluiced at Sulphur,
158
00:07:22,500 --> 00:07:23,500
it's gonna mean that 10,000
ounces is gonna be
159
00:07:24,166 --> 00:07:25,767
out the window very quickly.
160
00:07:26,633 --> 00:07:27,200
That's definitely not
how Parker wants
161
00:07:27,767 --> 00:07:28,600
to start the season off.
162
00:07:35,467 --> 00:07:37,367

He's been sluicingat his Indian River operation
165
00:08:04,033 --> 00:08:05,300
for five weeks,
166
00:08:05,934 --> 00:08:09,667
already banking 775 ounces
167
00:08:10,300 --> 00:08:12,900
of his 6,500 ounce target.

[intriguing music plays]
171
00:08:45,667 --> 00:08:47,367
It feels good to be successful
up here, helping out Tony.
172
00:08:49,767 --> 00:08:51,867
The task that Tony gets me
to do every day puts out more

trust and confidence
in my work ethic
174
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:55,767
and what I can do
as a person.
175
00:08:56,633 --> 00:08:58,567
Heavy equipment operatorJacob Moore
176
00:08:59,467 --> 00:09:02,567
only joined the Beets crewlast season.
177
00:09:03,867 --> 00:09:08,166
Now he has to step up to actingforeman and impress the king.
178
00:09:09,533 --> 00:09:10,667
He's put every trust
that I never thought
I would ever get up here.
179
00:09:11,767 --> 00:09:13,567
If you're honest
and give it your all,
180
00:09:14,433 --> 00:09:15,367
then you get treated
like one of them.
181
00:09:17,300 --> 00:09:19,166
[Tony speaking]
182
00:09:19,767 --> 00:09:20,400
[Jacob] Yeah, go ahead.
183
00:09:20,834 --> 00:09:23,667
[Tony speaking]
184
00:09:24,233 --> 00:09:24,967
[Jacob] Yeah, copy that.
185
00:09:26,100 --> 00:09:28,467
[Tony speaking]
186
00:09:34,467 --> 00:09:36,567
[intriguing music plays]
187
00:09:40,767 --> 00:09:43,467
[Jacob]
Ahh...That's not good.
188
00:09:43,900 --> 00:09:44,700
[Tony speaking]
189
00:09:55,066 --> 00:09:56,667
[Jacob] Sounds good, Tony.
190
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,700
Last week, Tony tasked his crew
191
00:10:02,667 --> 00:10:05,266
with expanding the 13 acreEarly Bird Cut
192
00:10:05,867 --> 00:10:07,367
by a further nine acres.
193
00:10:08,700 --> 00:10:11,400
But now spring meltwateris flooding in,
194
00:10:12,266 --> 00:10:15,100
drowning the exposedgold-rich pay.
195
00:10:16,667 --> 00:10:20,800
Tony wants Jacob to bring ina submersible pump
196
00:10:22,033 --> 00:10:25,767
connected to a 400-foot-longpipe and pump out the water
197
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,667
to drain into a mined-outsection of the cut,
198
00:10:30,700 --> 00:10:33,400
allowing his crewto get back to hauling pay.
199
00:10:35,467 --> 00:10:38,100
[Jacob]
That was a lot of pressure,
but I can handle it.
200
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:39,867
We need to get
what Tony wants done
201
00:10:40,533 --> 00:10:41,900
the way Tony wants it done.
202
00:10:42,867 --> 00:10:44,400
I do not wanna be
on Tony Beets' wrong side.
203
00:10:44,834 --> 00:10:46,767
[Tony speaking]
204
00:10:48,567 --> 00:10:50,400
Jacob's first task?
205
00:10:51,133 --> 00:10:52,667
Move in the submersible pump.
206
00:10:53,100 --> 00:10:55,467
[Tony speaking]
207
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:08,867
[rumbling]
208
00:11:09,767 --> 00:11:10,166
[Jacob]
I'm just gonna
move it over here,
209
00:11:10,967 --> 00:11:11,467
that way we get
that pipe hooked up.
210
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,667
[whirring]
211
00:11:18,867 --> 00:11:20,467
Uh, we're just gonna get
the pump set up
212
00:11:21,266 --> 00:11:21,767
and get this pipe
dug into place,
213
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:23,667
so we can get
the water pumped out.
214
00:11:24,300 --> 00:11:26,767
[adventurous music plays]
215
00:11:28,767 --> 00:11:29,867
Wiggle it.
216
00:11:30,133 --> 00:11:31,166
Up!
217
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,066

219
00:11:41,467 --> 00:11:42,600
[Jacob]
See if it'll tilt this way.
220
00:11:45,867 --> 00:11:47,000
Push up on it.
221
00:11:47,533 --> 00:11:48,266
It's starting to go.
222
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,266
Oh, [bleep],
are you kidding me?
223
00:11:52,734 --> 00:11:53,567
That's [bleep].
224
00:11:56,266 --> 00:11:57,867
Try that.
225

[Tony speaking]

00:12:16,900 --> 00:12:18,266
[Jacob]
It needs to go down more.
230
00:12:18,834 --> 00:12:19,600
Swing it back this way.
231
00:12:21,967 --> 00:12:25,400
[Tony speaking]
232
00:12:25,700 --> 00:12:26,867
Whoo!

Swing it back this way?
236
00:12:47,467 --> 00:12:48,500
At Indian River,
237
00:12:49,500 --> 00:12:52,800
Tony has taskedstand-in foreman Jacob Moore
238
00:12:53,834 --> 00:12:55,867
with draining the floodedEarly Bird extension
239
00:12:56,333 --> 00:12:57,166
within an hour.
240
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:06,100
But the king isn't impressedwith how long it's taking.
241
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,066

Ow.
255
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,100
[Jacob] Yeah?
256
00:14:19,533 --> 00:14:20,900
[Tony speaking]
257
00:14:21,767 --> 00:14:23,066
[Jacob] My truck's over
by the red pump.

00:15:12,967 --> 00:15:16,567
Finally, after Tony'sintervention, the pump can

00:15:17,300 --> 00:15:18,500
start drainingthe flooded cut.
267
00:15:22,667 --> 00:15:24,100
[Jacob] Good?

273
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:39,567
Tony's not too impressed.
274
00:15:41,066 --> 00:15:42,300
Definitely no,
he's not pleased.

[ominous chord strikes]
277

Just a bit more stress
278
00:16:21,633 --> 00:16:23,100
than I was really hoping for
this year.
279
00:16:24,066 --> 00:16:25,500
We are kind of hurting
for experienced crew.
280
00:16:26,133 --> 00:16:27,166
Brennan's not coming back.
281
00:16:27,900 --> 00:16:29,200
Kayden's off to Parker's
as well.
282
00:16:30,100 --> 00:16:30,767
Kind of dropping like flies
around here.
283
00:16:31,967 --> 00:16:36,600
Kevin Beets' second seasonas mine boss is off to a rocky
284
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,667
start, having lost two keymembers from his skeleton crew.
285
00:16:41,934 --> 00:16:45,200
On a small crew, when people
leave, you feel it.
286
00:16:46,266 --> 00:16:48,100
2,000 ounce goal seems a little
further away now,
287
00:16:48,767 --> 00:16:49,767
but at least we're sluicing.
288
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,166
So we are still able
to be producing.
289
00:16:54,300 --> 00:16:56,100
We have a bit of pay stockpiled
from the Lynx extension,
290
00:16:57,233 --> 00:16:58,000
but as soon as that runs out,
we're really gonna have
291
00:16:58,900 --> 00:17:00,567
to get material out
of the Pyramid Cut.
292
00:17:03,900 --> 00:17:08,567
Kevin's crew has been sluicingstockpiled pay from last season
293
00:17:09,533 --> 00:17:12,567
for two weeks, deliveringover 100 ounces.
294
00:17:13,834 --> 00:17:17,000
But with the pile fast runningout, his crew of five have also
295
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,367
been racing to open upnew ground
296
00:17:20,133 --> 00:17:21,767
in the three-acrePyramid Cut.
297
00:17:23,300 --> 00:17:26,400
[Ayla]
It's nonstop for the trucks
hauling overburden.
298
00:17:27,433 --> 00:17:30,467
The goal is to hit pay
in the Pyramid Cut in time
299
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,600
for when the plant is moved
and ready to fire back up.
300
00:17:36,166 --> 00:17:38,166
We're stretching our crew
to the limit right now,
301
00:17:39,133 --> 00:17:40,567
but it's what we gotta do
to keep on going.
302
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,200
We're finishing up the pay
around the plant,
303
00:17:44,834 --> 00:17:46,166
then we'll move the plant.
304
00:17:47,333 --> 00:17:48,667
But there's gonna be a lot
more work than I thought it is
305
00:17:49,367 --> 00:17:51,166
now without Brennan and Kayden.
306
00:17:52,233 --> 00:17:54,900
With a big plant moveon the horizon this week,
307
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,166
Kevin's looking to findnew recruits.
308
00:17:59,133 --> 00:18:00,100
Me and Faith are working
our way through quite
309
00:18:00,533 --> 00:18:01,200
a few resumes.
310
00:18:02,066 --> 00:18:04,100
We did find a fairly
experienced miner.
311
00:18:05,333 --> 00:18:06,400
We'll see him when he shows up
and hopefully that works out.
312
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:23,166
Veteran gold miner Buzz Legaulthas had a busy winter.
313
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:44,767
But Buzz wasn't smiling lastyear after two seasons working
314
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:46,166
for Rick Ness.
315
00:18:46,934 --> 00:18:47,867

[Rick] Hey, Buzz!
319
00:18:54,867 --> 00:18:56,400
There's not a 100-person
crew here.
320
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:57,700
You're a [bleep] guy
on this crew.
321
00:18:58,767 --> 00:18:59,166
You're gonna jump in
where the [bleep] you fit in,
322
00:18:59,867 --> 00:19:00,600
or you're gonna go [bleep] home.

00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:41,000
-[Faith] Hello there.
-[Kevin] Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you and

329
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:53,767
[Kevin] Thanks for coming
to meet us, Buzz.
330
00:19:54,533 --> 00:19:55,266
We do appreciate
you showing up.
331
00:19:55,834 --> 00:19:56,266
Though we do gotta ask,
332
00:19:57,266 --> 00:19:58,467
I know you're the foreman
at Rick's last year,
333
00:19:59,367 --> 00:20:00,667
and clearly you're
not going back there.
334
00:20:01,166 --> 00:20:01,767
What's happening?
335
00:20:09,700 --> 00:20:10,800
[Kevin] Hmm.
336
00:20:19,266 --> 00:20:20,367
-[Faith] Congratulations.
-[Kevin] Yes.

338
00:20:23,100 --> 00:20:23,767
[Kevin] We're down a foreman.
339
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:25,700
Is that something you might be
interested in or?
340
00:20:32,900 --> 00:20:36,900
Well, I think we kind of need
more of a jack-of-all-trades
341
00:20:37,467 --> 00:20:38,300
more than anything else.
342
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,600
From what I've gathered,
you know how to run equipment,
343
00:20:42,567 --> 00:20:43,367
you know how to fix things,
and you can also
344
00:20:43,867 --> 00:20:44,667
weld a little bit.
345
00:20:45,567 --> 00:20:47,100
This might work.

00:20:53,300 --> 00:20:54,300
Yeah.

00:20:55,300 --> 00:20:56,900
If it all sounds good to you,
welcome aboard.

00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,567
As much as I would like to have
all of the focus on Dominion,
353
00:21:31,467 --> 00:21:34,066
that's just not really
a feasible option.
354
00:21:35,100 --> 00:21:36,166
There are projects that
absolutely have to happen
355
00:21:36,867 --> 00:21:38,100
this year, and that is Sulphur,
356
00:21:38,867 --> 00:21:40,000
so we just have to get
them done.
357
00:21:40,533 --> 00:21:43,667
[creaking, rattling]
358
00:21:44,166 --> 00:21:45,867
[epic music plays]
359
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,000
[Brennan]
At Sulphur, we're just about
ready for the plant move.
360
00:21:50,633 --> 00:21:51,700
We're gonna get rocks in.
361
00:21:52,867 --> 00:21:54,200
Parker's trying to give us
the best of the best for what
362
00:21:54,734 --> 00:21:55,767
we have to do here.
363
00:21:56,266 --> 00:21:57,567
At Sulphur Creek,
364
00:21:58,667 --> 00:22:00,767
Brennan and Mitch haveidentified what they believe
365
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,467
are gold hotspotsand stockpiled the paydirt.
366
00:22:05,667 --> 00:22:09,367
Now it's finally timeto start sluicing.
367
00:22:10,467 --> 00:22:11,900
[Mitch] We're ready to haul
Roxanne down to Sulphur,
368
00:22:12,767 --> 00:22:13,800
so we're gonna go build us
a washplant.
369
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,467
You know, early in the season
like this, the roads are
370
00:22:21,300 --> 00:22:22,767
in the worst shape
of the whole year.
371
00:22:23,533 --> 00:22:25,166
Come on, baby.
Come on, come on.
372
00:22:25,834 --> 00:22:27,266
[vehicle creaking, rattling]
373
00:22:28,433 --> 00:22:30,867
This is the sketchiest thing
we have done in a long time.
374
00:22:31,867 --> 00:22:33,667
We got soft roads, washplant
that's top heavy,
375
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,967
and we're in a rush.
376
00:22:37,033 --> 00:22:40,266
The 25 miles of dirt roadfrom Dominion to Sulphur
377
00:22:40,834 --> 00:22:41,767
is closed all winter.
378
00:22:42,834 --> 00:22:47,000
Opened just six weeks ago,it is still thawing out.
379
00:22:48,066 --> 00:22:49,300
[Mitch]
Oh, you almost hit that tree!
380
00:22:53,066 --> 00:22:55,667
Roxanne is big and robust
and we throw rocks at it all
381
00:22:56,567 --> 00:22:57,700
day long, but we're
clipping the trees.
382
00:23:00,166 --> 00:23:03,000
And all it's gonna take is
driving onto some wiring or
383
00:23:04,166 --> 00:23:05,000
a hose, and we're gonna have
a washplant that's not going
384
00:23:05,767 --> 00:23:06,266
to wanna do
what it needs to do.
385
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,300
Check this branch out!
386
00:23:11,066 --> 00:23:12,300
[bleep]!
387
00:23:13,133 --> 00:23:14,467
I think we're taking
some risks here.
388
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,567
[crashing]
389
00:23:21,300 --> 00:23:21,667
[Mitch]
Oh, no, no, no, no, no!
390
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:23,700
[soft thud]
391
00:23:25,667 --> 00:23:26,900
[Mitch] [bleep]!
392
00:23:28,767 --> 00:23:30,567
Well, there went our internet...
393
00:23:31,767 --> 00:23:33,467
Our washplants have internet
on them, which is very handy.
394
00:23:34,033 --> 00:23:35,367
This one now does not.
395
00:23:37,100 --> 00:23:40,667
We're too remote here to have
the radios reach back to camp.
396
00:23:41,700 --> 00:23:43,367
We are going to need
a new dish here.
397
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,266
All right, we got Roxanne
where it needs to live.
398
00:23:53,300 --> 00:23:54,000
We'll run back, grab a sluice
run, start putting
399
00:23:54,533 --> 00:23:55,300
this thing together.
400
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:57,767
There we have it.
401
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,967
We're gonna build a little
pad and pull this thing off
402
00:24:02,500 --> 00:24:03,367
as quick as we can.
403
00:24:04,567 --> 00:24:05,867
We just gotta get her off
in one piece, then up straight.
404
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,000
[rumbling, creaking]
405
00:24:11,467 --> 00:24:12,667
I like it.
Looks good!
406
00:24:14,667 --> 00:24:17,867
Next, Mitch collectsthe plant's sluice runs
407
00:24:18,333 --> 00:24:19,567
from Dominion.
408
00:24:20,867 --> 00:24:22,367
[Mitch]
The purpose of the sluice runs
being wide is to put more
409
00:24:23,066 --> 00:24:23,767
through the washplant faster.
410
00:24:25,467 --> 00:24:28,066
The problem with that is when
you've gotta move it.
411
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,700
You can see I'm having to drive
down the middle of the road.
412
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,166
If something's driving
the other way,
413
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:37,567
we're gonna be in trouble.
414
00:24:38,500 --> 00:24:39,266
Last thing I'm gonna be
doing is backing up
415
00:24:39,834 --> 00:24:40,900
on these roads miles.
416
00:24:43,667 --> 00:24:45,266
Just gotta slow down here.
417
00:24:48,066 --> 00:24:50,867
It's so narrow here,
and these trees are big.
418
00:24:51,867 --> 00:24:52,900
And this thing is clipping
things on the sides.
419
00:24:53,967 --> 00:24:56,266
You can hear the branches
breaking behind us here.
420
00:24:58,467 --> 00:25:00,567
We are just threading a needle
right now.
421
00:25:08,567 --> 00:25:10,066
Yeah, I'm --
422
00:25:13,667 --> 00:25:15,266
Oh, we got something coming off
the back there.
423
00:25:17,300 --> 00:25:18,600
These roads are so rough,
424
00:25:19,367 --> 00:25:19,867
this trailer's vibrating
so much.
425
00:25:20,367 --> 00:25:22,467
[rattling heavily]
426
00:25:23,734 --> 00:25:25,266
We're not stopping on
the middle of these hills,
427
00:25:26,066 --> 00:25:26,667
we'll have to go back
and get it.
428
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,166
-Jacob, you got a copy?
-[Jacob] Yeah, go ahead.
429
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,667
[Mitch] Jacob, we are missing
some of the iron and some
430
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,166
of the carpets.
See what all you can find.
431
00:25:40,734 --> 00:25:42,567
[thrilling music plays]
432
00:25:48,700 --> 00:25:49,867
[Jacob]
Load all these guys up.
433
00:25:50,500 --> 00:25:51,166
Don't have to go that far.
434
00:25:52,467 --> 00:25:54,200
Get them back as fast
as possible.
435
00:25:54,934 --> 00:25:55,500
Just put them back in the runs.
436
00:26:03,100 --> 00:26:05,100
[Mitch] Right on, buddy.
Give her.
437
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,900
Just gonna pull the sluice
runs off here,
438
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:09,100
build a washplant.
439
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:13,166
Well, now we're looking
pretty good here.
440
00:26:14,367 --> 00:26:15,667
What do you say we bring in
the next piece of the puzzle?
441
00:26:16,033 --> 00:26:18,100
[rattling]
442
00:26:25,166 --> 00:26:26,867
[Alec] Yeah, yeah, we got
clearance here.
443
00:26:30,367 --> 00:26:32,300
[Mitch] Right now, we got
our hopper feeder
444
00:26:32,934 --> 00:26:34,066
and the conveyor in place.
445
00:26:34,633 --> 00:26:35,166
The plant's levelled.
446
00:26:35,734 --> 00:26:36,467
The sluice runs are set.
447
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:38,166
So we just gotta hook up
our water line here,
448
00:26:39,066 --> 00:26:39,700
and we're gonna be ready
to start sluicing.
449
00:26:40,700 --> 00:26:42,800
[engine starts]
450
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:43,900
Here we go.
451
00:26:44,667 --> 00:26:46,266
We got Roxanne firing up
right now!
452
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,367
This is our first scoop
going in here,
453
00:26:54,333 --> 00:26:56,000
and we got three washplants
up and running.
454
00:26:56,500 --> 00:26:58,467
[epic music plays]
455
00:26:59,700 --> 00:27:01,667
-[Mitch] What's up?
-[Parker] How are we?
456
00:27:02,266 --> 00:27:03,367
[Brennan] Looking good.
457
00:27:04,333 --> 00:27:05,367
[Parker] Nice job making that
work in time.
458
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,266
I was like, "There's no way
this is gonna work."
459
00:27:09,367 --> 00:27:10,667
[Mitch] I mean, dude, it came
together pretty nice.
460
00:27:11,166 --> 00:27:11,867
[Parker] Good job!
461
00:27:12,834 --> 00:27:13,467
This project was supposed
to be 1,000 feet.
462
00:27:14,367 --> 00:27:15,900
Now it's 2,000 feet.
There's more to go.
463
00:27:16,467 --> 00:27:17,266
[Brennan] Yeah, 3,000.
464
00:27:17,567 --> 00:27:18,367
Four!
465
00:27:18,767 --> 00:27:20,066
[all laugh]
466
00:27:53,367 --> 00:27:57,266
At Indian River,with Cousin Mike still away,
467
00:27:58,266 --> 00:28:02,100
Tony has no choice butto give stand-in foreman
468
00:28:03,033 --> 00:28:06,500
Jacob Moore a second chanceto step up.
469
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,100
[Jacob] I do have worries
for what Tony will think.
470
00:28:10,300 --> 00:28:12,667
I want to show him that I can
make decisions and do stuff
471
00:28:13,900 --> 00:28:15,900
on my own without his need to be
there and oversee everything.
472
00:28:22,166 --> 00:28:25,367
[Eric speaking]
473
00:28:36,900 --> 00:28:39,767
[rattling erratically]
474
00:28:51,667 --> 00:28:53,967
[creaking loudly]
475
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,767
Yeah, I heard it too,
I'll check it out.
476
00:29:03,333 --> 00:29:06,300
[high-pitched whirring]
477
00:29:09,467 --> 00:29:12,000
[engine winds down]
478
00:29:21,667 --> 00:29:23,066
[Jacob]
Noise coming from the plant
479
00:29:24,166 --> 00:29:24,900
so we're gonna check it out
and see what's going on
480
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,000
up here.
481
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,667
At Indian River,stand-in foreman Jacob has shut
482
00:29:32,834 --> 00:29:36,000
down Tony Beets' only runningwashplant, Sluice-A-Lot,
483
00:29:37,133 --> 00:29:39,867
to investigate mysteriousnoises coming from inside
484
00:29:40,333 --> 00:29:41,567
the shaker deck.
485
00:29:42,734 --> 00:29:43,467
[Jacob] I have suspicions
it's probably down here where
486
00:29:44,467 --> 00:29:45,667
all the bolts and everything's
bolted together.
487
00:29:46,667 --> 00:29:48,000
Means I'll have to crawl
in here.
488
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,266
Hopefully nothing's broken.
489
00:29:52,066 --> 00:29:53,367
Oh, [bleep].
490
00:29:53,867 --> 00:29:54,967
There's our issue.
491
00:29:55,767 --> 00:29:57,300
Everything is cracked
to [bleep].
492
00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:58,800
That is not good.
493
00:29:59,433 --> 00:30:00,600
We can't run this at all.
494
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:02,667
This plant will just shake
itself in the little itty-bitty
495
00:30:03,233 --> 00:30:04,100
bits out the tailings.
496
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:05,767
I'm lucky that we caught it
when we did
497
00:30:06,333 --> 00:30:07,000
before it cut too bad.
498
00:30:09,667 --> 00:30:11,567
Slide, lift it up so we can get
the chute out,
499
00:30:12,433 --> 00:30:13,166
because the chute
is cracked as well.
500
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,567
Now I'll get this chute out so
we can have two welders going
501
00:30:18,066 --> 00:30:19,266
at the same time.
502
00:30:20,233 --> 00:30:21,000
All right, I'm just gonna
put my feet on it.
503
00:30:21,433 --> 00:30:22,567
[Jacob grunts]
504
00:30:23,567 --> 00:30:25,166
[Andrew] Whoo-hoo!
505
00:30:26,033 --> 00:30:27,467
[Jacob] It's heavy.
There's a problem.
506
00:30:28,667 --> 00:30:32,200
The bolt rattled out and caused
it to get violent and crack.
507
00:30:33,166 --> 00:30:34,000
Now, we're gonna take
the welders down here.
508
00:30:35,166 --> 00:30:39,500
Sluice-A-Lot shaker deck hastwo screens that separate
509
00:30:40,333 --> 00:30:42,767
waste rocksfrom gold-rich pay dirt.
510
00:30:43,967 --> 00:30:47,166
The waste rocks move towardsa tailing chute that funnels
511
00:30:48,333 --> 00:30:51,066
them onto a conveyor and ejectsthem into a waste pile.
512
00:30:52,033 --> 00:30:54,900
But some of the boltsconnecting the chute
513
00:30:55,533 --> 00:30:56,767
to the deck's steel frame
514
00:30:57,633 --> 00:30:59,600
have fallen out,making it unstable,
515
00:31:00,567 --> 00:31:02,266
leading to the chuteconstantly hitting
516
00:31:03,033 --> 00:31:04,467
and crackingthe deck's frame.
517
00:31:05,633 --> 00:31:09,800
Jacob plans to weld the cracks,replace the old chute,
518
00:31:10,834 --> 00:31:13,567
bolt it back into place,and get the washplant
519
00:31:14,133 --> 00:31:15,567
up and sluicing again.
520
00:31:17,667 --> 00:31:19,166
[Jacob] Where do you want
that to weld?
521
00:31:19,667 --> 00:31:20,567
[Andrew speaking]
522
00:31:21,700 --> 00:31:23,400
[Jacob] I noticed this crack
here, another crack here,
523
00:31:23,900 --> 00:31:24,600
and here as well.
524
00:31:25,900 --> 00:31:27,867
A couple of seconds,
man, could have been a big
525
00:31:28,633 --> 00:31:29,266
change in what we're
doing today.
526
00:31:29,934 --> 00:31:31,000
[Keith] Yeah, you're lucky.
527
00:31:32,066 --> 00:31:33,567
Because I'm gonna actually
do an inside weld first.
528
00:31:34,567 --> 00:31:35,367
Because then when I grind,
oh, there's my weld.
529
00:31:35,934 --> 00:31:36,500
I get 100% out of it.
530
00:31:38,767 --> 00:31:40,967
[adventurous music plays]
531
00:31:42,133 --> 00:31:43,567
[Jacob] JB is still working
on the crack.
532
00:31:47,567 --> 00:31:49,667
[Keith]
Just doing the last weld here.
533
00:31:50,033 --> 00:31:51,867
[buzzing]
534
00:31:57,166 --> 00:31:58,266
All done.
535
00:31:59,333 --> 00:32:02,600
[Jacob] Keith has the cracks
all done on the plant.
536
00:32:03,567 --> 00:32:05,367
We've been down for three
or four hours now.
537
00:32:06,066 --> 00:32:07,000
We've gotta put this chute on.
538
00:32:08,266 --> 00:32:09,100
We've got the cracks welded up
on it, and now we're just gonna
539
00:32:09,667 --> 00:32:10,467
get it back in place.
540
00:32:11,633 --> 00:32:13,867
Mason's up there putting
the bolts in for me.
541
00:32:14,667 --> 00:32:15,567
Here, Iโll come
give you a hand.
542
00:32:18,567 --> 00:32:20,567
Getting there, buddy.
543
00:32:20,900 --> 00:32:21,667
[sighs]
544
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,166
[whirring]
545
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,166
Yeah, that's the last bolt,
just got to tighten 'em up.
546
00:32:28,667 --> 00:32:29,367
We're good to go.
547
00:32:30,367 --> 00:32:31,266
-[radio static buzzes]
-[Jacob] Yeah, go ahead.
548
00:32:31,900 --> 00:32:32,667
[Monica] Tony just called.
549
00:32:33,467 --> 00:32:35,066
He wants to know
if we are sluicing.
550
00:32:36,133 --> 00:32:37,567
We will be here in like
20 minutes, half hour tops.
551
00:32:38,100 --> 00:32:38,800
[Monica] Perfection.
552
00:32:39,166 --> 00:32:42,367
[whirring]
553
00:32:43,133 --> 00:32:43,367
[Jacob]
You're all done up there?
554
00:32:44,033 --> 00:32:44,567
[Andrew] Yes, sir!
555
00:32:46,367 --> 00:32:47,867
[Jacob] Tony's coming out here.
556
00:32:49,066 --> 00:32:50,000
So it would be nice to have
rocks coming out the tailings
557
00:32:50,934 --> 00:32:52,266
and gold in the box
for when he shows up.
558
00:32:52,900 --> 00:32:53,467
I'm gonna hop in the hoe,
559
00:32:54,333 --> 00:32:55,567
if you wanna fire everything
up for me.
560
00:32:58,266 --> 00:33:00,066
[engine starts]
561
00:33:00,633 --> 00:33:02,266
[dramatic music plays]
562
00:33:19,266 --> 00:33:20,667
[Jacob]
Everything went very well.
563
00:33:21,567 --> 00:33:22,400
Everything was fixed
in a timely manner.
564
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:24,667
We're back in action,
and hopefully we're good
565
00:33:25,166 --> 00:33:26,100
from here on out.
566
00:33:32,500 --> 00:33:33,567
[Tony speaking]
567
00:33:34,433 --> 00:33:35,100
[Jacob] Oh, the plant was
all cracked.
568
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:36,667
We had it all welded up,
and back sluicing.
569
00:33:37,100 --> 00:33:37,867
[Tony speaking]
570
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:39,467
Still washing rocks.
571
00:33:39,900 --> 00:33:40,767
[Tony speaking]
572
00:33:41,333 --> 00:33:42,000
Yeah, take care, Tony.
573
00:33:42,667 --> 00:33:44,600
[Jacob] Yeah, see you later.
574
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,667
[Tony speaking]
575
00:34:11,767 --> 00:34:13,767
[intriguing music plays]
576
00:34:15,133 --> 00:34:16,567
[Kevin]
Since we're done on the floor
here, we are moving the plant
577
00:34:17,533 --> 00:34:19,600
to a new location
on the wayside over there.
578
00:34:20,467 --> 00:34:22,600
Three miles away,at Scribner Creek,
579
00:34:23,233 --> 00:34:24,900
Tony's eldest son, Kevin,
580
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:28,500
has run out of stockpiled payand is preparing
581
00:34:29,567 --> 00:34:32,600
for the biggest plant moveof his fledgling career.
582
00:34:33,667 --> 00:34:34,867
We're gonna have so much
space for our fine tailings
583
00:34:35,433 --> 00:34:35,967
and our coarse tailings.
584
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,266
Down here, we only had 20 feet
we could fill up.
585
00:34:39,133 --> 00:34:39,567
On top of the wayside,
that's gonna be
586
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:41,166
100, 120 feet to fill up.
587
00:34:42,233 --> 00:34:44,400
Easier on the equipment,
shorter trips.
588
00:34:47,066 --> 00:34:52,100
Kevin wants to haul his 35-tonwashplant from its current pad
589
00:34:52,934 --> 00:34:55,166
at the Lynx Cutwith an excavator
590
00:34:55,767 --> 00:34:57,100
down a 20-degree slope,
591
00:34:58,300 --> 00:35:04,000
maneuver it around a tightcorner, then drag it 400 feet
592
00:35:05,233 --> 00:35:09,400
up a steep 30-degree inclineto its final sluicing location.
593
00:35:12,967 --> 00:35:15,100
[Kevin] It is gonna be a little
bit of a bit further away from
594
00:35:16,333 --> 00:35:18,100
the Pyramid Cut, but as soon
as we're done here, we're gonna
595
00:35:19,033 --> 00:35:19,767
have to go upstream,
and we're gonna be way
596
00:35:20,934 --> 00:35:22,967
closer to the upstream cuts,
so a bit of future-proofing.
597
00:35:24,100 --> 00:35:25,367
Now we just gotta [bleep]
make it happen.
598
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,000
I'd like to get everything
up and running.
599
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:32,600
Not to rush you,
but we're trying to rush you.
600
00:35:33,867 --> 00:35:36,467
Kevin puts new recruit, Buzz,
601
00:35:37,166 --> 00:35:38,166
straight into the hot seat.
602
00:35:42,767 --> 00:35:44,266
This is gonna be one
of the first big projects
603
00:35:45,266 --> 00:35:46,467
Buzz is gonna do for us since
he came on site.
604
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:48,600
So, got high expectations
and high hopes.
605
00:35:53,166 --> 00:35:55,066
Get on the cables
and then let's get ready.
606
00:35:56,667 --> 00:36:00,467
We're gonna hook up the plant
and drag that into position.
607
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:15,700
[Kevin] Faith, can I get
you on the pin?
608
00:36:16,533 --> 00:36:17,166
[Faith]
This is the only plant we got.
609
00:36:18,333 --> 00:36:20,000
If this is damaged, we're stuck
in the water, so to speak.
610
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:21,667
Hopefully this move
goes smoothly.
611
00:36:22,033 --> 00:36:23,000
[clanking]
612
00:36:23,767 --> 00:36:24,266
All right, everything's
hooked up.
613
00:36:25,033 --> 00:36:25,867
I guess it's time
to pull, Buzz.
614
00:36:27,066 --> 00:36:28,667
We'll have the rest of us as
spotters, but just be careful.
615
00:36:29,166 --> 00:36:29,900
Let's [bleep] go!
616
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,400
[engine starts]
617
00:36:32,867 --> 00:36:34,367
[deep rumbling]
618
00:36:34,867 --> 00:36:35,867
We have movement.
619
00:36:37,266 --> 00:36:39,767
This will be a good test
of Buzz's operating skills.
620
00:36:41,700 --> 00:36:44,300
[Buzz speaking]
621
00:36:48,166 --> 00:36:50,667
I'm just watching that
our runs are not scraping
622
00:36:51,300 --> 00:36:52,000
on the ground at the end.
623
00:36:55,667 --> 00:36:57,500
If they're too close,
they'll rub on the ground
624
00:36:58,066 --> 00:36:58,567
and they might rip off,
625
00:36:59,367 --> 00:37:00,400
leading to a lot
of repair work, so.
626
00:37:01,867 --> 00:37:03,767
So [bleep] close.
627
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:07,700
[bleep] close.
628
00:37:08,633 --> 00:37:09,900
We're just [bleep]
scraping them right now.
629
00:37:10,266 --> 00:37:12,700
[rattling]
630
00:37:13,133 --> 00:37:15,166
[Buzz speaking]
631
00:37:16,567 --> 00:37:17,667
Stop, stop.
632
00:37:18,900 --> 00:37:20,200
Don't try and lift it up
like that.
633
00:37:22,367 --> 00:37:24,367
Let the tension off the cable.
We're raising the sluice runs
634
00:37:25,133 --> 00:37:25,800
so they don't drag
on the ground.
635
00:37:27,667 --> 00:37:28,767
Case in point.
636
00:37:31,767 --> 00:37:34,467
We pay 3 quarters of a million
dollars for the washplant,
637
00:37:35,300 --> 00:37:36,166
so we really don't wanna
[bleep] it.
638
00:37:38,100 --> 00:37:39,200
Chute's lifted up.
639
00:37:40,266 --> 00:37:41,100
We shouldn't have any other
problems for the pull.
640
00:37:44,066 --> 00:37:46,200
[Buzz speaking]
641
00:37:56,500 --> 00:37:58,200
[Kevin] Now we pull it
up the hill
642
00:37:58,834 --> 00:37:59,900
to its final resting spot,
643
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:01,066
hopefully for the season.
644
00:38:03,066 --> 00:38:05,867
[revving, rattling]
645
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,166
[metallic creaking]
646
00:38:12,867 --> 00:38:13,867
[Faith]
Oh no, it's slipping!
647
00:38:15,100 --> 00:38:16,367
[Kevin] [bleep], [bleep].
648
00:38:16,834 --> 00:38:17,767
Yep, stop, stop.
649
00:38:19,266 --> 00:38:20,467
That's not gonna [bleep] work,
650
00:38:21,333 --> 00:38:21,700
your ass end's already
off the ground.
651
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:24,567
I don't think
it's gonna do it.
652
00:38:26,266 --> 00:38:28,266
Well, I guess the washplant
might be a bit too heavy
653
00:38:28,934 --> 00:38:29,767
with the angle and the hill.
654
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:30,967
[Buzz speaking]
655
00:38:32,033 --> 00:38:33,667
[Kevin]
We'll get something
with twice the weight,
656
00:38:34,233 --> 00:38:35,467
four times the power.
657
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,767
All righty, bring that D10
over here, s'il vous plait.
658
00:38:39,867 --> 00:38:41,000
[operator speaking]
659
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:47,100
The 63-ton D10 dozer is10 tons heavier than
660
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:51,467
the 480 excavator and hasthree times the pulling power.
661
00:38:52,467 --> 00:38:53,867
Let's get the dozer lined up
662
00:38:54,967 --> 00:38:56,500
and, well, that's gonna
[bleep] move it, guaranteed.
663
00:38:58,066 --> 00:38:59,166
[Kevin] Better.
664
00:39:01,967 --> 00:39:03,700
[Buzz speaking]
665
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:09,767
[Kevin] There we go!
666
00:39:11,166 --> 00:39:13,667
A hundred tons of [bleep] you,
we're going somewhere.
667
00:39:33,767 --> 00:39:35,667
Stop! Perfect.
668
00:39:37,367 --> 00:39:40,367
-Went up the hill, nice.
-Oh, yeah.
669
00:39:40,967 --> 00:39:41,567
[Faith] Good job, Buzz!
670
00:39:42,333 --> 00:39:43,066
Didn't even have
to break a sweat.
671
00:39:43,500 --> 00:39:44,700
[Buzz speaking]
672
00:39:45,867 --> 00:39:47,066
[Kevin]
Now that's all in place,
673
00:39:48,233 --> 00:39:49,166
the next thing is to do a bit
of repairs and take a bit
674
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:50,467
of extra time.
675
00:39:51,533 --> 00:39:53,300
We shouldn't have to move
this year or next year.
676
00:39:54,367 --> 00:39:55,767
We have so much space
for tailings, and that way,
677
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,467
this summer, we can just
run, run, run.
678
00:39:59,100 --> 00:40:00,467
I am very happy with that.
679
00:40:01,300 --> 00:40:02,367
-[Buzz] Yeah.
-[Kevin] [bleep] Yeah.
680
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:09,600
[upbeat music plays]

[Tony speaking]
682
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,600
Tony Beets runs a tight ship,
683
00:40:15,834 --> 00:40:19,200
and his crew members need to beable to walk a fine line.
684
00:40:43,467 --> 00:40:44,967
-[Minnie] Hi, guys.
-[Mike] Hello.
685
00:40:45,700 --> 00:40:46,100
-[Monica] Hello.
-[Tony speaking]
686

687
00:40:49,166 --> 00:40:50,200
[Tony and Minnie]
688
00:40:51,133 --> 00:40:52,600
[Minnie] So what is new
in the Indian River?
689
00:40:53,033 --> 00:40:54,266
[Tony speaking]
690
00:41:02,166 --> 00:41:07,000
With cousin Mike away,stand-in foreman Jacob ran
691
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,300
Tony's only producingwashplant, Sluice-A-Lot.
692
00:41:11,467 --> 00:41:13,500
-[Minnie] So how many days?
-We sluiced for seven days.
693
00:41:14,667 --> 00:41:16,700
Minus the couple of hours that
you were down, so it's not
694
00:41:17,100 --> 00:41:17,867
a full week.
695
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:23,667
Sluice-A-Lot has been averaging192 ounces a week.
696
00:41:27,467 --> 00:41:29,400
[Tony speaking]
697
00:41:29,834 --> 00:41:32,500
10...40...80...
698
00:41:32,900 --> 00:41:36,100
110...160...
699
00:41:37,667 --> 00:41:41,600
230...250...
700
00:41:42,166 --> 00:41:45,100
250 ounces, point 74.
701
00:41:45,567 --> 00:41:49,300
Worth $878,000.
702
00:41:49,734 --> 00:41:50,700
That's not bad.
703
00:41:51,367 --> 00:41:53,200
-[Tony speaking]
-Only days.
704
00:41:54,233 --> 00:41:54,900
[Monica] Hey, does that put us
over 1,000 ounces?
705
00:41:55,467 --> 00:41:56,500
[Minnie] Yeah, 1,025.
706
00:41:56,934 --> 00:41:59,367
[Tony speaking]
707
00:42:04,166 --> 00:42:05,467
Yeah.
708
00:42:07,567 --> 00:42:09,667
With that being said,
you should pack it back up
709
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:11,567
and go do what you all do best.
710
00:42:12,300 --> 00:42:13,000
OK, we'll see
you guys later.
711
00:42:13,433 --> 00:42:14,667
[Tony speaking]
712
00:42:17,367 --> 00:42:18,567
Yeah, it doesn't
take much, eh?
713
00:42:19,033 --> 00:42:19,600
[Tony speaking]
714
00:42:20,667 --> 00:42:22,367
And with the gold price it is,
it's a lot of money.
715
00:42:29,667 --> 00:42:34,266
Three miles east, at Scribner,it's the end of Buzz's first
716
00:42:34,900 --> 00:42:36,667
week with Kevin and Faith.
717
00:42:37,500 --> 00:42:38,467
[Faith]
How are you fitting in so far?
718
00:42:38,900 --> 00:42:40,166
[Buzz speaking]
719
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:41,400
[Buzz chuckles]
720
00:42:42,567 --> 00:42:44,200
[Kevin] Been kicking off a lot
of projects pretty quick,
721
00:42:45,300 --> 00:42:46,567
seeing problems and fixing
them, so I think overall,
722
00:42:47,133 --> 00:42:47,667
fitting in pretty good.
723
00:42:48,767 --> 00:42:49,900
I'm curious, how's it compared
to working with Rick?
724
00:42:51,867 --> 00:42:52,967
Very different?
725
00:42:53,734 --> 00:42:55,600
-[Buzz speaking]
-How different?
726
00:42:56,333 --> 00:42:57,467
[Faith] Just different.
[laughs]
727
00:42:58,667 --> 00:43:00,867
Well, that's good to hear,
Buzz, because, like, with Kayden
728
00:43:01,934 --> 00:43:03,367
and Brennan leaving, I was
starting to worry that,
729
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:05,367
well, we were doing
something wrong
730
00:43:06,066 --> 00:43:07,367
and just didn't [bleep] know.
731
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,667
This is the last of our piggy
bank cut, so we have a little
732
00:43:11,233 --> 00:43:12,266
bit of gold to weigh.
733
00:43:12,834 --> 00:43:14,367
Not bad looking amount.
734
00:43:14,900 --> 00:43:16,166
[Faith] Not too bad.
735
00:43:17,333 --> 00:43:20,767
It's time to weigh the lastof Kevin's stockpiled pay.
736
00:43:21,900 --> 00:43:24,800
Kevin ran for three daysbefore moving the washplant.
737
00:43:25,767 --> 00:43:26,367
[Kevin] One for the money,
two for the show.
738
00:43:26,867 --> 00:43:27,567
Let's [bleep] go.
739
00:43:29,266 --> 00:43:32,467
[Buzz] 3...10...18...
740
00:43:33,100 --> 00:43:37,367
26...38...47...48...50...
741
00:43:39,467 --> 00:43:42,266
56.590.
742
00:43:45,367 --> 00:43:46,700
[Kevin]
Yeah, that's not too bad.
743
00:43:47,166 --> 00:43:51,467
Worth $198,000.
744
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:52,767
[Kevin] It's encouraging
for everything else
745
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:53,867
we're gonna run.
746
00:43:54,700 --> 00:43:56,000
Definitely, there's gold
in the ground.
747
00:43:57,133 --> 00:43:58,266
So what does that put our total
at for the year so far?
748
00:43:59,033 --> 00:44:01,467
Currently, we're sitting
at 162.09.
749
00:44:02,266 --> 00:44:04,367
So a while away
to the 2,000 ounces.
750
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:06,166
[Buzz speaking]
751
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:07,767
[Kevin] I mean, of course,
we wanna get sluicing
752
00:44:08,300 --> 00:44:09,100
as soon as possible.
753
00:44:10,266 --> 00:44:11,400
We've got some work to do
with the plant, so it's gonna
754
00:44:12,266 --> 00:44:13,100
take a little bit of time,
but ideally
755
00:44:13,667 --> 00:44:15,066
we'll get going ASAP.
756
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:17,367
Hopefully, by the end of
the week, we can start sluicing
757
00:44:18,367 --> 00:44:19,567
the Pyramid Cut, see what
treasures it's got.
758
00:44:20,633 --> 00:44:21,266
It's not running, we're not
getting any gold, so.
759
00:44:25,767 --> 00:44:27,000
[scoffs]
760
00:44:32,100 --> 00:44:34,500
[upbeat music plays]
761
00:44:36,300 --> 00:44:38,100
Well, having internet
on the trucks this year
762
00:44:38,633 --> 00:44:39,367
is like a lifesaver,
763
00:44:40,367 --> 00:44:41,600
Except for me, I'm like,
I need to get a hold --
764
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:43,567
like the other day when I was
trying to get a hold of you,
765
00:44:44,500 --> 00:44:45,200
I'm like -- call you
and you don't answer.
766
00:44:45,633 --> 00:44:46,600
And I'm like,
767
00:44:47,166 --> 00:44:48,300
"Where is this [bleep]?"
768
00:44:48,700 --> 00:44:51,166
[all cackle]
769
00:44:52,300 --> 00:44:53,400
It's that look right there.
I had a dream last night.
770
00:44:53,934 --> 00:44:54,567
I was telling Mitch,
771
00:44:55,533 --> 00:44:56,100
I was like, "I don't know
what the [bleep]."
772
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,066
I was stressed out.
I woke up sweating.
773
00:44:59,033 --> 00:44:59,600
[Mitch] He was telling me
about that dream.
774
00:45:00,467 --> 00:45:01,166
"His cheek was
like touching my...
775
00:45:01,934 --> 00:45:02,800
His stubble was
rubbing my face."
776
00:45:03,333 --> 00:45:04,000
He almost caught me.
777
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,000
[all cackle]
778
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:09,000
[Tyson]
How does it feel to make it
into Brennan's dreams?
779
00:45:09,867 --> 00:45:11,567
Oh, man, I wanna haunt
all four of you.
780
00:45:12,467 --> 00:45:13,900
Yeah, what's it like
working for Parker?
781
00:45:14,734 --> 00:45:16,800
Well, there's the dreams
and the PTSD,
782
00:45:17,567 --> 00:45:18,166
but other than that,
it's great.
783
00:45:19,567 --> 00:45:22,266
Three washplantsup and running.
784
00:45:23,433 --> 00:45:25,767
It's Parker's first triplegold weigh of the season.
785
00:45:26,567 --> 00:45:27,867
-[Doumitt] OK, T, you ready?
-Yeah.
786
00:45:28,834 --> 00:45:30,100
Get that Sluicifer here.
This is a two-hander.
787
00:45:30,934 --> 00:45:31,900
See how the Golden Mile
did this week.
788
00:45:32,934 --> 00:45:37,266
Last week, the Golden Mileproduced 152 ounces.
789
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:38,367
[Tyson] Here we go.
790
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:45,300
Got 20...60...80...120...140...
791
00:45:45,967 --> 00:45:47,200
180...we're gonna break two,
792
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:48,700
-200...
-[Parker] Nice.
793
00:45:49,333 --> 00:45:52,767
[Tyson] 210...220...222.3.
794
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:57,867
Worth $778,000.
795
00:45:58,767 --> 00:45:59,767
-[Parker] Sick.
-[Brennan] That is nice.
796
00:46:00,967 --> 00:46:03,667
[Doumitt]
Anyway, we got Mr. Bob.
Come on, Brennan.
797
00:46:04,700 --> 00:46:07,767
The Bridge Cut is averaging150 ounces a week.
798
00:46:08,667 --> 00:46:11,967
[Brennan] 20...40...80...
799
00:46:12,734 --> 00:46:15,266
-90...130...140.
-[Doumitt] Yeah.
800
00:46:16,066 --> 00:46:17,400
-[Brennan] 170.
-[Parker] Oh, yeah.
801
00:46:17,834 --> 00:46:19,367
[Brennan] 190.4!
802
00:46:19,834 --> 00:46:24,100
Worth $666,000.
803
00:46:24,834 --> 00:46:25,700
-[Parker] Sick.
-[Brennan] Nice.
804
00:46:26,700 --> 00:46:28,800
Finally, Parkerwill discover if his gamble
805
00:46:29,433 --> 00:46:31,066
to chase gold left behind
806
00:46:32,033 --> 00:46:34,667
by the old timers at Sulphurwill pay out.
807
00:46:35,934 --> 00:46:36,967
-[Doumitt] We gotta do
Sulphur, Mitch.
-[Parker] We need it.
808
00:46:38,100 --> 00:46:39,767
We've been spending money like
it's going out of style.
809
00:46:40,567 --> 00:46:41,467
[Mitch]
First round of Sulphur here.
810
00:46:41,967 --> 00:46:43,867
We got 20...40...
811
00:46:46,100 --> 00:46:47,400
90...
812
00:46:48,900 --> 00:46:51,000
110...
813
00:46:51,300 --> 00:46:52,667
114.8.
814
00:46:55,166 --> 00:46:57,567
That's actually really good
for the hours you ran.
815
00:46:58,533 --> 00:46:59,567
Yeah, I mean, we just got
the plant set up,
816
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,266
and that material was like
the first cut off.
817
00:47:03,300 --> 00:47:04,567
[Parker] Oh, I thought it was
gonna be terrible.
818
00:47:05,500 --> 00:47:06,800
I thought you were gonna
have like 20 ounces.
819
00:47:07,867 --> 00:47:08,767
[Brennan] Wow, that's a lot
of gold for one week.
820
00:47:09,667 --> 00:47:11,400
-Yeah.
-Yeah, we had a really
good week.
821
00:47:12,100 --> 00:47:12,767
Well, we had --
For this week,
822
00:47:13,467 --> 00:47:15,767
it was 527 and a half ounces.
823
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:16,900
For the week!
824
00:47:17,467 --> 00:47:19,400
[all cheering, laughing]
825
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:24,000
Worth over $1.8 million.
826
00:47:25,100 --> 00:47:29,767
-For the season so far,
it's 1,235.4 ounces.
-Sweet.
827
00:47:30,533 --> 00:47:32,000
Which is about
1,100 ounces ahead
828
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:33,467
of where we were
this time last year.
829
00:47:33,767 --> 00:47:35,066
Nice.
830
00:47:35,700 --> 00:47:36,200
All right.
Thanks, guys.
831
00:47:37,166 --> 00:47:37,800
-[Brennan] Thank you.
-[Parker] Keep it up.
832
00:47:38,900 --> 00:47:40,300
-Let's get back out there, man.
-[Mitch] Let's do it.
833
00:47:41,333 --> 00:47:42,100
-[Parker] Good job, boys.
-[Brennan] Thank you.
834
00:47:43,333 --> 00:47:44,100
[Parker]
It's really nice to have
three plants up and running.
835
00:47:45,233 --> 00:47:46,066
Mitch and Brennan are doing
a good job over at Sulphur
836
00:47:46,633 --> 00:47:47,166
getting that opened up.
837
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:48,867
So I'm excited to see
what it can do
838
00:47:49,500 --> 00:47:50,367
in a full week of running.
839
00:47:50,867 --> 00:47:51,667
It's pretty sweet.
840
00:47:52,667 --> 00:47:53,567
We're gonna do some serious
damage this year.
841
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:56,300
Bosco!
