What the Is wrong with people here?
You're joking.
Why would I joke about?
What's the world coming to?
Hey, rick, you didn't use My soap, did ya?
I don't share a shower with you, So it wasn't me, I promise.
Narrator Rick ness has mined Over $700,000 worth of gold.
In just over 3 months.
As he sets his sights On becoming.
A million-dollar man.
Rick A little over halfway Through the season right now.
We've got a little over halfway To our goal of 1,000 ounces.
Narrator But last week,
Rick's gold haul fell By a massive 60%.
41.3.
I still think we can get more Out of our plant.
There's just a few little things That we're going to have to do.
We're just going to have To tweak it.
And get it running As efficient as possible.
Narrator Gold expert freddy dodge.
Is back to help figure out Why rick's gold has dropped.
He's the most knowledgeable guy I know.
When it comes to wash plants And gold recovery,
Freddy dodge is the man.
- Freddy. - How's it going, rick?
Pretty good, man.
- How you been? - Busy.
- Busy? - Good to see you, man.
Yeah, you, too. We've been busy as well.
How's everything going?
Everything is going good In the cut.
We've got ground. We've got gold coming in.
It's just not coming In very quick, you know?
I just don't really know how To go about it right now.
Might be a few little things We can tweak.
Yeah?
Well, let's go put our heads Together and see what.
- We can figure out. - All right.
Narrator Freddy dodge Has over 40 years' experience.
Building and running Wash plants.
Freddy There's always Something you can do.
To make things More efficient,
Make things run A little bit better.
Hey, ryan!
How's everything going On the sluices?
It looks like it's starting To lean one way.
It's leaning?
I think it is.
I mean, if you look How the water's piling up.
- In that corner. - Yeah.
Do you think it's still sitting Pretty level or is it...
- the sluice looks level. - Does it? Okay.
- Yeah. Eyeballing it. - I was just eyeballing it.
Freddy We need more water, To start with.
Hang on one second.
We got a major issue Going on here, though.
We shouldn't have rocks like This coming down the sluice box.
Half-inch minuses is all should Be going down the sluice box.
Pieces of rocks this size, Not that size.
Narrator A steady flow of water Carries the concentrate.
Through the sluice box...
So the heavy gold Drops steadily.
Into the expanded metal riffles.
When large rocks enter The sluices,
They disrupt the flow,
And gold is washed into The tailings.
We're making a living Off of fine, fine gold here,
And a like that Ruins it.
How's she looking, freddy?
Well, we got sluice issues.
- We got big-ass rocks. - -holy.
How is that getting in there?
There's a hole somewhere.
Hey, rick.
- That a big row of holes? - Yeah.
Looks like Inch-and-a-half holes.
I never even noticed them.
Yeah, there's All in through there.
Man, I don't know How I didn't notice that.
I wonder what the hell Those holes are there for.
I don't know.
They must have had something Bolted to it in the past.
Narrator In its previous life,
Durt reynolds ran gravel For a roadbuilding crew.
Well, we need to shut down And get those welded up.
I guarantee you're losing gold. Really?
Only one way to find out Is grab a pan and go look.
All right.
Rick Man, I hope it's not bad.
We'll pan it over here.
Look at that, rick.
They're small, But they're there.
In one pan.
Yeah.
Well, I can't really Argue with this.
I mean, It's in the pan, right?
It's gold that's not ever going To find the scale?
Yeah.
But, man, if we shut down, We got to be quick about it.
- Yeah. - -let's do it.
Rick It's not good.
It sucks Is what it does.
Hey! Let's do this!
Whoo!
Narrator 11 miles east,
Parker schnabel is chasing 6,000 ounces,
Worth $7.2 million.
Yeah, I mean, right now We're just over 2,700 ounces.
So, you know, we're almost Halfway to our goal.
Narrator Big red is running 200 yards an hour...
But sluicifer is out of pay dirt And standing idle.
Parker So today, we're moving Sluicifer again.
We're gonna keep going forward And get to 6,000,
Sluicifer is the key ingredient In that.
Right now we're just trying To dig out the center area.
For all the material.
That's built up from where We've been sluicing.
As soon as we get it cleaned up, Then we'll actually be ready.
To move sluicifer here, so...
This is like playing "Operation!"
I know!
This is a really expensive Version of it.
That's right.
Narrator Moving sluicifer cost $2,400 an hour in lost gold.
Parker needs the move To be as fast as possible.
But the 700 excavator He normally uses.
To move the plant is down With a broken track.
- Hey, mitch. - What's up?
Not a whole lot. I was just trying to think about.
How to move This plant.
I mean, without the 700,
I don't know what we're going To move this thing with.
You know, I mean, The parts are on order,
So they should be here Any day.
Yeah, but we're in the yukon.
"On order" could mean a day, It could mean a month.
Yeah.
Where's our chinook?
Yeah.
We need a chinook And arnold schwarzenegger.
Well, what about the dozer? It's our last option, right?
I mean, we've never moved this Thing with a dozer, have we?
It'll pull it no problem,
But you can't watch it Like a hoe.
You know, at least with The excavator,
Everything can be Nice and controlled.
And you can get A lot of lift on it.
But, I mean, there's really Not another choice.
I don't want to do it, but...
- yeah. - All right.
Let's just start yarding on it.
Narrator Parker needs To move the plant 600 yards.
To the new pad above The pay dirt he'll be mining.
He normally uses The 700 excavator.
Because its 45-foot bucket arm.
Can lift the skids Of the 45-ton wash plant.
But the d10 has no lifting arm,
Meaning it can't get the same Lift as the excavator,
And if it drags it Horizontally,
The skids will Dig themselves into the dirt.
We're just rigging up the cable To the back of the dozer here.
Narrator Using the cables, Parker is attempting.
To turn the ripper arm Into a lifting arm.
Mitch You might be able to pull It back into you a little bit.
Parker Yeah, watch The pinch points here.
Mitch There you go. Hold there.
Can you grab us A couple of wrenches.
So that we can Tighten this up, please?
Yeah.
Narrator Mitch rigs The biggest bolt he can find.
Into a socket Only intended for maintenance.
I don't like, really, any part Of all this,
But it's our only option, So... We're gonna try.
Whoo! Let's do this!
Parker I mean, This plant weighs a good.
Probably 100,000 pounds, So it's a lot of weight.
Man My big concern is just that Rigging up there.
On the top of the ripper.
If we break that, everything Is going to come flying apart,
And somebody might get hurt...
What we don't want To have happen here.
Do it. You're looking good.
Brennan, whoa! Whoa! Stop! Stop!
You're looking good.
Brennan, whoa! Whoa! Stop! Stop!
Is everything good or what?
You're good.
Narrator Parker schnabel's 700 excavator is down,
So he's attempting to move His $600,000 wash plant,
Sluicifer, with a d10 dozer.
Ryan is just trying To get a feel for this.
We haven't done it Like this before.
Narrator Brennan uses the ripper arm.
To lift the skids at least An inch out of the dirt.
- Iay it up! - -parker What the.
Are you doing, Brennan?
Yeah, I just can't quite Get myself.
Turned to where I want to go here, yeah.
Well, he needs to back straight Into the plant is the problem.
He's got it now.
There we go!
Get me back on the gold, baby!
Well, that was the hard part, Getting it rolled free.
Man, getting it into place Is going to be tough.
Without the 700 here to help us.
Man All the straight stretches Done coming down the hill.
We got it turned here. The hard part is going to be.
Getting it Back up this other hill,
So we got to get sluicifer On top of this new pad,
And then we gotta get it spun,
Which is going to be the hardest Part of this whole deal.
All right, now we're just Really struggling here.
To get enough lift.
Brennan is just cresting Over this hill,
And the cat doesn't want To quite pull it here.
He's just gotta Kind of work it here.
That's pretty hard on it, Brennan.
If you can just use your ripper Like a winch.
And just try And suck it up a little bit,
And then once You get it going...
So ripper down and pull ahead,
And then once you get pulled Ahead, then stop and ripper up.
Try that one more time.
Then you'll crest over And you'll be back on the flats.
Parker Now we're gettin' Somewhere!
How much further?
About 10 feet.
Little more, a couple feet.
- Good. - Good?
Narrator The final challenge For the d10...
Spin the plant 90 degrees into Its final position.
Yeah, I mean, this is The most critical part.
Of this whole move, Just making this turn happen,
Making sure the plant's in The pad that we've got for it.
- Okay, here we go. - Just go straight!
Go.
Parker I mean, normally with a hoe,
You've got a lot of control Over this turn,
And with the dozer, you don't,
And the problem is wherever it Ends up is where it ends up.
Boy, it'd be pretty easy To just fold this thing.
Like a taco right now.
Man Whoa, whoa. Right there, man. Looks good.
That look good to you, Dean?
Yeah, it looks really good From right here.
Yeah?
Whoo!
Did we just make history?!
- Nice job, buddy! - Thanks.
- Good job, man. - Yeah. Thanks, buddy.
Wipe the sweat Off the brows.
I'm really glad that worked, You know?
We've never moved sluicifer With a dozer before,
But it went, actually, Really well.
Now it's just a lot Of big pieces left...
Superstacker, feeder, water, Water line, you know,
And then a lot of little stuff.
We need to get some Gold coming in.
This is really going to be A pain in the ass.
Narrator At quartz creek, Rick ness is shut down.
While freddy dodge repairs Large holes in his trommel.
That could've already cost rick.
Thousands of dollars In lost gold.
There's the problem right there, Those holes.
They're letting Great big rocks through.
And plugging the sluice box up,
And pounding down through it And helping spit gold out.
Going to try to get it Fixed fast.
Narrator Every hour the plant is down.
Costs rick $1,000.
Freddy These guys need All the gold they can get,
So we don't want to lose any.
Hey, grab me a tape measure, Please.
Rick said those guys put 1/2-inch punch plate in here.
It's 7/8ths.
They're frickin' monsters.
Rick, I got some bad news. What's that?
You were thinking this is 1/2-inch punch plate?
- Yeah? - 7/8ths.
That's why we have so much Material in the sluice box.
- Are you serious? - Lookit.
7/8ths on the tape, so we got Two times the amount of material.
Going down the sluice As what we should,
And we just don't have Enough sluice box.
To handle that much material.
Yeah. They're 7/8ths for sure.
Freddy Yep..
Way too big.
There's no changing that, Rick.
I made a lot Of oversights here.
- I didn't measure anything. - I didn't...
It's not only the cost It would be.
To get a new one of These rolled.
It'd just be the time, Right?
It'd be a mess, Rick, yeah.
Narrator It would cost rick $30,000 for a new punch plate,
And over $150,000 in downtime.
The hits keep comin'.
Well, just going From bad to worse.
I'm going to have to figure out This mess myself.
I think I know How I'm going to do it,
But, gonna have to Run to town.
Freddy We just keep finding More and more things, you know?
I just never got Close enough to 'em.
Till I was up there Welding them to measure it.
You know, it's been going round And round.
When I've been around it,
But truthfully, I really hate giving him
news One after the other.
Narrator At quartz creek,
Rick ness is back from town With a bush fix for his trommel.
Rick I'm going to bolt this Onto the outside of the trommel.
To reduce the size of the holes.
So then we'll just cut it up Into pieces, bolt it on.
I got a bunch Of hardware for it,
And should do the trick.
Narrator To reduce the size Of the punch plate,
Rick will bolt on sections Of steel mesh.
To the outside of the trommel.
So while the gold And fine material.
Pass into the sluice box,
Everything over 1/2-inch Pours out of the end.
Ready?
I don't see how It's going to work.
Zee I think it's just gonna Clog up the holes.
With it being On the outside like this.
I don't think it's gonna work That good, either.
You think we should grab rick.
And just have him Take a look at it?
We can, yeah.
You know those bars That go across,
Those stabilizing bars On the outside?
Yeah.
They already got rocks packed In, and nothing can go through,
So in theory, it's gonna Do the same thing.
- Like, you see these bars? - Yep.
There's rocks packed in here That won't even come out.
Yeah, I see that. Listen, I'm fine with this.
Okay. And you're not worried About it getting clogged?
No. I like it.
- I like it lots. - All right.
Narrator Along with the crew...
- you ready? - Yeah.
Wash plant expert freddy Is not convinced.
Freddy I think it'll overlay The holes, plug everything up.
Hell, I say try it,
But I'd bet you 100 bucks It's gonna plug up.
- I'll bet you 100 bucks. - If it doesn't plug,
I'll eat some crow And give you 100 bucks.
- Zee, are you ready? - Go.
Rick This is a quick fix.
We've only got one more piece To bolt on,
Then we'll fire it up, See if it works.
- All right, fire it up! - Okay.
Narrator Rick runs Durt reynolds for an hour.
To see if his gamble paid off.
Yes.
Definitely less of The big rocks.
Since they put Those screens on there.
It's pretty good.
There's not a lot of gravel Stuck up in the mesh,
And it's pretty encouraging.
Looks like it's working Pretty damn good to me.
I thought it'd plug up. I hate losing bets,
But this is one bet I'm glad I lost.
- Hundo. - Crisp, new $100 bill.
Yeah, buddy.
- Good job, man. - Thanks, freddy.
Narrator 11 miles east, At eureka creek...
Monica Doyle.
Hi, doyle. Hi, ham.
I have the dog in my hoe.
Narrator Monica beets Is full-throttle.
At the only plant Running on tony's mine.
Dredge one is down With a worn-out conveyor belt.
Dredge one has been down For a little while.
It'd be nice if we could get it Back up and running soon.
Because it does need.
To start pulling Its weight with gold weighs,
Because right now My plant is killing it,
And we've got Almost 1,000 ounces.
Out of just my plant, Which is aces.
Narrator Now tony's dream Of a 6,000-ounce season.
Rests on monica's shoulders.
Ruby!
What was that?
We've got a clogged chute,
Which means we've got a hole In the screen.
What's going on, monica?
We've got a hole In our top screen.
How bad is it?
I've got two runs Blocked off.
Crap.
They're all wore out.
Narrator The wire screens In the shaker deck.
Have developed large holes...
Allowing rocks to enter The plant,
Blocking the gold-rich pay dirt In the distribution chute.
Tony, tony, tony.
Can you come to my plant, Please?
See right here?
This screen, what it's Designed to do.
Is to only allow Inch-and-a-half material.
To come through the top Of the deck into the mid-deck.
Right here, it's all wore out.
We're actually getting big Pieces of rock coming through,
And what it's doing is just Clogging everything up,
And then actually wearing out The bottom deck even quicker.
Big problem, tony. All those screens are wore out.
On the top deck, Completely wore out.
We've got two runs clogged.
I'm about to open up the back And get somebody to pull it out,
But... This has been A long season.
All last summer, I had the same problem.
We've been changing them out Every couple days.
Yeah, I got that table.
I've never cut punch plate With it before.
I can do it, yeah.
Well, it'll wear a lot better Than this screen.
The screen is just garbage. All right, well...
Narrator This season, Mechanic juan has a new toy...
A $30,000 fully automated Cnc plasma cutter.
Juan I'm used to having one of These back home in my shop,
But this is new to me this year.
I decided to put one together And put it in the trailer.
Narrator He is using it To manufacture.
Four new punch plates.
With 1 1/2-inch holes To replace the broken screens.
Juan So far, It's been quite the help.
It's going to be The first plate.
We got three more to go.
Hopefully, I'll be able To get them done.
Before the end of the day.
Monica I know there's a ton Of rocks stuck in there.
We really need to get this deck Put back together.
And washing rocks Because time is money.
All right, well...
That should do it, But we won't know.
If it's running clear Until we start the water.
So we're waiting on juan.
I actually got this done A little quicker than I thought,
Got it done in a day.
We're just pulling them out Right now.
They're ready to install.
The faster we get that R.A. Plate in,
The less downtime we'll have In the long run.
So sucks for now,
But you got to put the time in To make the money.
So we just finished putting all The new punch plates in,
So hopefully we won't have As much downtime,
And now we can actually Start sluicing again.
And make some money.
So we've got dirt Coming out of the run.
Our conveyors are going, So everything looks good to me.
Nice to see it running again.
Parker The best way to do this.
Is probably The two of you guys just get.
- That superstacker in. - Okay.
All right, thanks, guys.
- Got her done. - Thanks.
Narrator The schnabel crew Is racing.
To reassemble Wash plant sluicifer.
So it can get back to Producing gold.
Parker Now it's Just the big pieces left.
We got the superstacker in, Feeder in,
Get the water hooked up, get The sluice runs put together.
How's she looking, mitch?
You're looking good! Keep going!
We hopefully will Be washing rocks tonight.
Narrator Brennan brings in the 460.
To shunt the superstacker Halfway up the pad.
So it can feed the wash plant.
Man We normally use our 700s.
For moving These conveyors around.
They've got a lot more power, A lot more weight behind them.
I don't know how we're gonna Get it up that ramp.
With the 460, But it's all we got.
It barely has enough lift To be able to make it happen.
Can you see a ramp? Good! You're looking nice.
Well, I hope I can Grunt this up there.
That's a big lift For this little hoe.
Push it!
Narrator The 20-ton stacker Is digging itself.
Into the soft gravel ramp.
Is she gonna go?
She's soft, buddy.
You're digging in bad.
More power!
Brennan!
What the happened?
- Yeah, the clevis let go. - -sakes.
That little excavator has got A bit of power then?
This thing is heavy.
Strong, strong, strong, Not as strong.
That's the weakest link In the chain!
Zing!
Throw another one on here.
Let's try and do this Without sending parts.
Past our face this time,
All right!
- Let's try that. - Okay.
Ay!
You got a car alarm On that thing?
Someone's trying to steal My superstacker!
Let's try that again.
See what happens.
Don't bring it too high off The ground.
Because you're only A couple threads in.
You got lots of room On that side.
You can move it over A couple feet.
- No one behind me? - You're clear behind you.
Have these tires lined up.
Just a few inches From where you were.
There you go!
Come on, baby! Get me up here!
Nice!

Hey, swing around! Brennan!
Hey, we haven't it up yet!
Hey, it looks good, man.
Good job With all this stuff.
I'm just glad It's back up and running.
