00:00A great start to the season.
00:29In his race to 6,500 ounces, Klondike kingpin Tony Beetz is off to a quick start.
00:52His early bird cut at Indian River has already delivered 417 ounces worth $1.5 million.
01:04I want to have two sides running.
01:09Mike is tripping Paradise Hill.
01:11As long as Mike is boosting someone in June, I'll be happy.
01:15And then Cousin Mike is running the Indian River.
01:18There's more pressure on him to keep the plant rolling, keep that gold flowing.
01:23We're going to go get together with Cousin Mike and see what we're going to do this year.
01:30.
01:32Look at this commotion.
01:35The high water and everything.
01:38I hate Cousin Mike decopy.
01:41Go ahead.
01:42I see nothing but water.
01:44There's a lot of water coming into the cut.
01:47I do not, do not want to flood the cut.
01:51Shut off the plant.
01:52Shut off the plant.
01:53With this gold price, anytime you shut down, you're going to loads of money.
02:03Let's see what the is happening.
02:13Hey, hey, hey.
02:16You see that beaver there in the water?
02:18That's the culprit.
02:19That little .
02:21We better check around there where we let the water out in the pond.
02:26You see what's happening on that side of the pipe?
02:30The beaver overnight, he plugged that culvert up.
02:34So, we'll have to fix it.
02:36Cousin Mike decopy?
02:38Go ahead, Tony.
02:40Get him over here with an excavator, please.
02:43We got a beaver plugged that culvert.
02:45Okay, copy that.
02:48At Indian River, the 13-acre early bird cut sits next to two connected settling ponds.
02:56These hold all the dirty sluice water from Wash Plant Sluicealot, discharged at 3,300 gallons a minute.
03:05But a beaver has plugged the culvert, connecting the two ponds.
03:11Unable to drain into the second pond, the first pond is quickly filled up and burst its banks.
03:19Water is now flooding into Tony's only gold-producing cut.
03:24Be damned if we're gonna get that beaver to me around.
03:30What we're doing, we'll take the excavator, you will stand in the bucket, see if you can poke it out.
03:39Okay.
03:40Okay, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
03:50Cousin Mike is gonna try with a stick, but they're plenty smart, them things.
04:01That beaver knows what he's doing.
04:03He plugged up the culvert pretty good.
04:05F***ing beaver.
04:11Hurry the f*** up, get that water under control.
04:24It ain't ever gonna f***ing work.
04:27To access and clear the culvert, Tony will first need to get rid of the water.
04:36So what we're gonna do is we're gonna block this culvert off.
04:42Then what I'll do is I'll bend the water out, and then we're gonna see what the problem is.
04:46Now I'm just scooping out some water just to speed things up a little bit.
04:55And now we'll see what kind of sticks are in there and whatever.
05:00Okay, good enough.
05:06We're lucky because sometimes they got logs in there, they got all kinds of crap in there.
05:17Let's scoop this up, get them sticks out.
05:19Get them sticks out.
05:26Okay, I'm gonna open it up.
05:39There it is.
05:42Okay, fire up the plants.
05:50Bingo, we're back in business.
05:53There he goes.
05:55He just may move to a different pond.
05:58Yeah, move to Parker or something.
06:02Anyway, for now we have that cure.
06:05All we gotta do is keep running.
06:07That's what makes the way.
06:19First muggy of beer.
06:31That's great.
06:33This is a encouraging cleanup.
06:36Just like his father, Tony, eldest son, Kevin Beetz, is already turning dirt into dollars.
06:44Boing, boing, boing.
06:48Only one week into his second season as mine boss, he's already banked 57 ounces of his new 2,000-ounce target.
06:58We started sleucing so early because last year we left ourselves a good little piggy bank.
07:04Because the gold price being as high as she is, now there's extra incentive to have money coming in from the get-go.
07:09It is unfortunate that Brennan is gone.
07:12We relied on him quite heavily for keeping the cut in line, but we will make it work somehow.
07:23All right, guys. We had a very good start, but as you know, Brennan is not coming back this year.
07:28So I'll be down here in the cut a bit more often to provide more guidance and direction.
07:32So, Caden, you can be feeding the plant. Rick on tailings again.
07:38Chelsea, Ayla, and Tyler would get the rock trucks going to get a bit of stripping happening.
07:42Any comments, questions, or concerns?
07:44My only concern would be about wet paint and our potential jam up.
07:50Well, we really don't have the time to let it dry right now.
07:53Have to try and shove it through and see what it does.
07:55Okay.
07:56So, let us get to getting and get some gold.
08:00Caden's concerns about the wet paint, weight against getting going.
08:04I think it is worth rolling the dice and just dealing with any issues as they arise.
08:11I think that Kevin's decision to run the wet paint is going to bite us in the ass in the long run.
08:17As spring temperatures begin to rise, Kevin's thawing pay pile is becoming sloppy.
08:25Wet paint.
08:28Skipping the belt.
08:30And proving problematic for 23-year-old local mechanic and operator, Caden Foote.
08:36The paint is so wet, the belt slips on it. It just doesn't pick it up.
08:41I don't know why he's choosing to do this, but it's making my patience run thin.
08:47Poor planning causes piss-poor production, which leads to piss-poor results.
08:56Oh .
09:00It's a wet paint mat.
09:11Hey, Kevin, got a copy, Kevin?
09:21Go for Kevin.
09:23The roller on the feeder.
09:27The drive wheel was spinning, but the belt wasn't.
09:30It's soaking wet.
09:32So I shut everything down.
09:34Okay.
09:36See that?
09:38Wet mud.
09:39Can't run that.
09:41Jams up the feeder, creates the drive belt to just spin.
09:47Endless problems.
09:49Can't run wet soup.
10:00I just dumped a bucket in when it stopped.
10:03But it was, like, soaking wet.
10:06Yeah.
10:08If we spread the material, it would dry out within a day or two.
10:13It's better than fighting constant shutdowns.
10:16Ugh, no.
10:18A lot of that is just feeding it in less quickly.
10:21And there will be less .
10:25We just have to make it work.
10:27Clean out the wheel.
10:29And after that, we'll get back to sluicing.
10:32Your call, boss.
10:38The wet pay is slapping over the side of the hopper feeder's first conveyor belt onto its drive wheel below, making it too slippery to grip and push the heavy dirt up the conveyor belt.
10:52Stopping it from feeding pay onto the second conveyor and into the wash plant.
11:00Kevin's quick fix?
11:02Use 4,000 pounds per square inch of high-pressure hot water to blast away the mud.
11:08Then, fire up the plant and feed the pay at a slower rate.
11:23I really miss working with Brennan.
11:27He's my friend.
11:28He was super nice, supportive.
11:31And with Kevin, I feel like I'm disrespected.
11:35Whenever I bring something to his attention, nothing ever happens.
11:41He hired me on as a mechanic, and now I'm stuck doing this .
11:50Like, why are we struggling like this?
11:55It's really pissing me off.
11:58It's been a tough start to the season.
12:04The whole Duncan Creek water license thing, it's like beating a dead horse.
12:10Gold prices are great right now, and I have to make a move on this Lightning Creek option.
12:15It's either, you know, gone or, you know, sit here and cry about it, which we're not going to do.
12:3244-year-old mine boss, Rick Ness, is in survival mode.
12:38With red tape preventing him from running a stockpile of gold on his own claim, he has just one choice.
12:46Go back to leasing ground from his old landlord.
12:49It's Troy Taylor's ground, so I'm going to talk to Troy right now and see if we can come up with a deal.
12:54Quite honestly, I need it.
12:55I can't afford to not get gold this year.
12:57If Rick can cut a deal for the ground at Lightning Creek, he'll once again pay Troy a percentage on any gold he mines.
13:05Troy, how are you doing?
13:08Troy, how are you doing?
13:10Come on in.
13:14What's happening out there?
13:16Oh, no, no, no.
13:17I'm here to make a deal.
13:18Yeah, let's talk.
13:20What are you thinking?
13:22I guess we're going to talk about royalties.
13:25I'm looking for 10%.
13:28Yeah, well, things have changed.
13:31Uh, so what were you thinking?
13:36The royalty is, uh, 20%, Rick.
13:43Holy , Troy, I mean, that's, uh, that's a lot of money.
13:47I'd be taking all the risk from you and you'd be making more.
13:50What if, what if, what if we said 15?
13:56I get that, but there's less royalty.
13:58You know how it is with water licenses in demand.
14:01There is a lot of people more than ever showing interest right now.
14:04Yeah.
14:05So...
14:08Yeah, you're right about that, but, like, how many of these people have you worked with?
14:12These people can promise you 20%, well, what are they going to actually put in your hand?
14:16We've been working together for, you know, six years now, and if I say I can put good gold in your hand, that's what you're going to get.
14:22I don't know.
14:26Yeah.
14:28I know what you can do, so I'm okay with 15%.
14:34I think we got a good deal.
14:37All right, Troy.
14:39Rick must pay Troy 5% more royalties than he used to, and owes him $350,000, no matter what kind of gold he finds.
14:49But, he finally has ground for this season.
14:54We've got a spot to go mining.
14:56I didn't get the 20%, but I've got a minimum of 100 ounces, and I'm going to be involved on a regular basis up there, so it's good.
15:03At the end of the day, is this the deal that I wanted to make? No. Of course I wanted to be mining my own ground, but you know what? We've got the deal made to be able to mine on Lightning Creek, so time to get on some gold.
15:12Time to get on some gold.
15:13One hundred miles away.
15:14Your timing is perfect, because I'm in the middle of going through hiring right now, and having people that have some experience up here is a huge benefit. Like, I have a spot for you 100%.
15:33All right, well, welcome aboard.
15:45Thank you very much. Look forward to working with you.
15:47Yeah, no, it'll be good. When you get here, we'll take you on a tour and wash some rocks.
15:52Awesome.
15:53All right, thanks man.
15:54Have a great day.
15:55See you soon.
15:58Awesome.
16:00Hired.
16:01Parker Schnabel is at it again. Having already poached Kevin's foreman, Brennan Ruhl, he's now hiring Kevin's key operator and mechanic, Caden Foote.
16:14Caden's going to be a great addition to the place.
16:16When it comes to poaching people, everybody's trying to do it. So I just don't know, am I the worst offender or am I just the most successful at it? Right?
16:27I got the job. Feels great. In my eyes, he's the king of the Klondike. But the most nerve wracking part is going to be when I tell Kevin and Faith I'm leaving. That's the one thing I'm dreading is that conversation.
16:48I want to talk to you in faith.
17:09Okay. Really quick because I do have to run.
17:19What's up?
17:21So I just, it's a sad, hard thing for me. I mean, it's, I'm just trying to do what I think is right. And so I got a job offer from Parker that I couldn't turn down.
17:36It's a thing. It really is. But I just, I have to move over. Yeah.
17:53It was definitely a tense and stressful conversation. I'm feeling a little upset, but I'm also excited for my future.
18:08It's a bit of a shock. I did not really expect him to have a moose between Brendan and Kayden. Like it's going to make the 2,000 ounce goal a lot more work.
18:27Things are going all right. Gold prices are up 1,000 bucks an ounce. Dominion has a lot of sluicing that needs to get done. It's time to make hay while the sun shines.
18:52Gold mining mogul Parker Schnabel is gunning for a record breaking season. To cash in on the sky high gold price, he's chasing a massive 10,000 ounce $35 million prize.
19:07You know, a big key to hitting our goal this year is going to be just getting plants running early as we can and keeping them running.
19:16People need to understand what the responsibilities and expectations are. And, you know, they need to be met.
19:24To hit his ambitious target, Parker's tasked his two lieutenants with sluicing more pater than ever before.
19:38At Sulford Creek, Mitch Blaschke is stripping a two-acre cut, hunting pockets of gold left behind by old timers.
19:47You know, this cut is almost half a mile long, and it's just a lot on it. Everybody's played each day. But we're making good progress here at Sulfur.
19:59At Parker's main operation on Dominion, Tyson Lee is in charge of two enormous cuts.
20:06The 114-acre bridge cut, where wash plant Bob is already sluicing, and the new 52-acre Golden Mile, where drill results indicate the cut could hold up to $12 million in gold.
20:23We're going to run four plants this year. There's a lot of work to do to get to that point.
20:31Last week, Tyson got Bob fired up in the bridge cut. Now it's a matter of getting sluicing set up in Golden Mile.
20:38Alec and Liam have done a complete rebuild on the plant, so we'll see if we can resurrect her.
20:44Right now, I'm getting pulled in polar opposite directions with Bob and Sluicifer.
20:53Parker wants Sluicifer running by the end of the week. There's a lot going on, and not much time to do with it.
20:59To help Tyson get Sluicifer running, Parker's throwing him the newest recruit.
21:05Hello. Hello.
21:09Kevin Beat's former operator, Caden.
21:12How's it going? I'm good.
21:14So, we've got to get Sluicifer's water recirculation system going.
21:18Okay.
21:19So, we need to have these culverts in, road activated by the end of the day, so we can get Sluicifer in, have two wash plants running on Dominion, and keep Parker happy.
21:27Absolutely. Sounds like a plan. Thanks, Tyson.
21:31In the bridge cut, wash plant Bob has been running for a week, bringing in 126 ounces in gold.
21:41Now, one and a half miles north, Tyson must get the Golden Mile, producing two.
21:48First, Tyson needs Caden to dig up the only access road to the cut and install a set of culverts for Sluice water to pass through.
21:59Once complete, Tyson will move Sluicifer from Parker's yard three miles to the Golden Mile cut and fire up the plant for the first time in two years.
22:12Today's my first day working for Parker.
22:27That's a pretty big responsibility that Tyson has given me.
22:32I just can't up.
22:34I'm working in this really fine wet material that's just like quicksand.
22:39So, you just got to be very cautious or that will sink you.
22:44Just a little love tap. Get her level.
22:52Gentle.
22:53Gentle.
22:58Oh, no.
22:59I think I'm sinking.
23:02No, she's in there.
23:12I can't get out of this.
23:16F***.
23:20Hey, Tyson, got a copy? Tyson?
23:23Yeah, go ahead.
23:25Yeah, I f***ed up.
23:27I sunk the 480.
23:28I'm going to need your help with another hoe to get this thing out.
23:31It's buried in there like top of the track frames.
23:35I'll be there as soon as possible.
23:40Hopefully this excavator isn't very stuck.
23:43Because I got better s*** to be doing.
23:48I've never sunk a hoe before.
23:50I'm sorry.
23:51It's the first hoe I've ever sunk.
24:05Let me just get in here for a sec and see what we can do.
24:11Without this road being reactivated, we can't get Slucifer up and running.
24:21So, I've got to get this thing out.
24:24Sure did a number on that one.
24:28I hope this isn't what gets me fired.
24:31Right now, we're just seeing if it can lift itself.
24:38Seems to be able to.
24:40It's a good sign.
24:41Looks like he got her.
24:58Everyone has first day nerves.
25:00But, you know, hopefully this is a lesson learned for Caden.
25:04You know?
25:06All good.
25:07Thank you so much.
25:08I'll get that culvert in.
25:10No worries, dude.
25:14Tyson's a really great guy.
25:16I'm happy that he got it out.
25:18But, at the same time, I'm annoyed that he was able to do it.
25:23And I couldn't.
25:24That definitely makes me feel like I always have more to learn.
25:30I'm about to throw our culvert in.
25:34Boom!
25:36Just like that, baby.
25:41Now, time to do a little bit of backfilling.
25:45Clean up the road.
25:48Good enough.
25:55Tyson can now move Slucifer into the Golden Mile.
25:59And we'll soon find out how much his new cut will pay out.
26:04One step in the right direction.
26:05Now, let's take her home.
26:06Let's try and get some dirt going through her by the end of the week for Parker.
26:14We've got a deal on Lightning Creek.
26:24Troy drove a hard bargain.
26:26Is it a risk?
26:27Absolutely.
26:28But, with the gold prices right now, now's the time to strike.
26:31Time is at the essence.
26:33In the mountains above Keno, Rick Ness is back in the game,
26:38having secured a lease on Lightning Creek.
26:40Now, we've just got to get the gold.
26:42Today, we're going to start moving the gear down there.
26:44Get our excavators down there, our trucks.
26:45And hopefully, by the end of the day, we're breaking dirt at Lightning Creek.
26:48And that's all that matters.
26:56Come on, Rick.
26:57What we got here?
26:58Who's that?
27:00Rick's best friend.
27:03Oh, Zee!
27:05Zee Zaremba and a new recruit have arrived.
27:07Good to see you, buddy.
27:12How you doing, Rick?
27:13Hey, I'm Kai.
27:14Kai.
27:15This is the one I was telling you about.
27:16To bolster Rick's skeleton crew, Zee has brought along new recruit, Kai Shallcross.
27:23Have you ever run a six-wheel drive off-road truck?
27:25No, I haven't.
27:26I think the biggest piece of equipment I've driven is probably like a mini excavator.
27:35Uh, let's start.
27:38Good kid?
27:39Yeah, good kid.
27:43I say let's get to Lightning Creek and get to mining.
27:46All right, I'm ready.
27:47Sick.
27:48All right, let's go.
27:49Let's go.
27:50Copy that.
27:52To get on the gold, Rick needs to move his fleet of big iron from Duncan Creek, eight miles northwest, to his new, leased 1,600-acre claim at Lightning Creek, where he hopes to pick up the trail of gold near its source at Mount Hinton.
28:16Finally going to be able to go move some dirt, eh?
28:30Yeah.
28:31We've got some gold in the box.
28:32Hey, Peter.
28:33How's this, boys?
28:39It's good to see Rick going gung ho, as always.
28:41I mean, every season, it seems like there's a new hurdle for him, but he overcomes it.
28:45Either he's really good at what he does, or a luck, or a little bit of bulk.
28:57Four hours later.
29:00Hey, Rick, are we there yet?
29:04Yeah, we're here.
29:05Awesome.
29:06Well, we're at Lightning Creek.
29:11Let's talk about a plan here.
29:15So we've got, yeah, a lot to figure out, but I don't think it's going to be that technically difficult.
29:21It's supposed to be 12 to 15 feet of pay.
29:24For five feet.
29:25With five feet of overburden on top of it, but I think that we're up for it.
29:28Yeah.
29:29I don't know what you guys think.
29:30Yeah, absolutely.
29:31You got a name picked out for this spot yet?
29:34Well, from above, it actually looks a bit like a diamond.
29:36Sounds like a diamond cut.
29:37There's some stuff to figure out yet, I'm not going to lie.
29:40But this is the year to swing for the fences.
29:42So I'd say, let's get down here and start slinging dirt.
29:45Great.
29:46All right.
29:47Sounds good.
29:53Rick's first targeting, a two-acre area, Troy began stripping last season.
29:59Everyone's been sitting around, and this is what they've been waiting for.
30:04Time to go.
30:06And he'll have to navigate Kino's notoriously spotty ground on a new plane.
30:12We don't have the best situation to deal with here.
30:15We've got a short season to kind of figure out where the gold is.
30:18We need to get over 100 ounces a week.
30:20Can we pull it from this valley?
30:22It could be spotty, and if we dig in the wrong spot, we may not find gold at all.
30:26And if you dig in the right spot, we might hit it.
30:28So it's exciting and nauseating at the same time.
30:51It's a monumental day out here.
30:52We're going to get slucifer set up on Dominion for the first time.
30:57It's about time we knock the rust off her and get her back to work.
31:01At Parker Schnabel's...
31:03Want to jump in the loader and I'll eye you up?
31:05Tyson and his crew are ready to move wash plant slucifer to the Golden Mile.
31:11This plant was the plant I learned on.
31:14And it's the plant that's going to make us a lot of money this year.
31:25Yo, Alec!
31:26Is everyone clear?
31:28Yeah?
31:29You know, slucifer is my baby girl and I'm dragging her home.
31:42Let's go.
31:43You've got some work to do, girl.
31:45You there?
31:49Tailing's conveyor...
31:50Yeah, Tyson walked forwards.
31:52...and sluice runs mounted.
31:55There we go.
31:57All right.
31:58We're going to pull slucifer up the hill.
32:01Tyson pulls the fully assembled 45-ton beast 100 feet onto the pad.
32:10I've just got to spin slucifer into place.
32:13Come on!
32:17Let's go!
32:19You got about five feet now.
32:23That's pretty much there.
32:26Guys, we really killed it here.
32:28We got slucifer up to the Golden Mile.
32:30Let's get her done.
32:31Definitely.
32:32Nice work.
32:33And stop there.
32:34Two years since she last washed rocks, slucifer is ready to catch an estimated 3,500 ounces buried in the Golden Mile.
32:54This is the first time that slucifer is fired up on Dominion, so that's cool.
32:58Some of that ground is looking really good.
33:01Let's hope it mines that way.
33:04Who wants to do the honors?
33:05You press the compare, you press the shaker.
33:08Ready?
33:11Let's go!
33:20Hey, Sandy, start feeding.
33:21Make this one count!
33:27Whoo!
33:31This is a moment I never thought would happen.
33:41Slucifer's firing back up on Dominion.
33:45First time of the season.
33:50How's she running?
33:52Pretty darn smooth.
33:53Well, hopefully it stays that way.
33:55Good job with this setup, dude.
33:56Thanks, man.
33:57I gotta go.
34:00See you guys.
34:01Good job.
34:03You guys are killing it.
34:04Whoo!
34:06Nice work, guys.
34:07Yay!
34:09Watch plant number two up and running.
34:11Two down, two to go.
34:13We got the two main ones running.
34:14That's what matters.
34:18Hopefully we find some gold.
34:19I just arrived here at Slucifer, so we're doing the first clean up since 2023.
34:36I heard there might be a lot of gold in the runs, but we're about to find out.
34:39Parker's trusted wash plant Slucifer has been running Golden Mile pay for 24 hours.
34:48Hey there, young man.
34:50Hey, Chris.
34:51How's it going?
34:52A lot of good memories right here.
34:53Yeah.
34:54When we had that 400-ouncer in here, that was awesome.
34:58That was so fun.
35:00I was talking to my dad yesterday.
35:01I was telling him everything that we've got going on, and he's like,
35:04Hi, is Chris going to be able to keep up in that gold room of his?
35:07And I'm like, I hope not.
35:09Yeah.
35:10No, I'm going to fight you tooth and nail.
35:11I'm going to push you guys hard.
35:23Hi, guys.
35:24Hello.
35:26So how are you doing on the hill, Mike?
35:28I haven't thought I got a strip.
35:30So I've got a lot to do.
35:32How's it going out here?
35:33Pretty good.
35:34I hear you guys are having a little bit of trouble with the beavers.
35:38Well, yeah.
35:39Beaver cured, water cured, so it's good.
35:42Yeah.
35:43So what do you think?
35:44Should we weigh some gold?
35:45Sure, let's weigh it out.
35:46Cool.
35:48Despite the beavers shutting down their only working wash plant for half a day,
35:54Tony expects the Indian River's early bird cut to deliver around 250 ounces.
36:005, 10, 15, 20, 30, 50, 80, 120, 150, 180, 190, 200, 214.6.
36:17It's below target, but still worth almost three quarters of a million dollars and brings the beets total to 632 ounces, nearly a tenth of Tony's season goal.
36:35That's not bad.
36:37No, it's doing pretty good.
36:38Keep it up.
36:39I kind of like it.
36:40Don't come back with anything less.
36:42Not bad holidays early in the season, right?
36:44Not bad at all.
36:46And at this price, I mean, what does it take to make a million bucks?
36:49Nothing.
36:50Okay, you guys all should go back to work.
36:53See you.
36:54See you later.
37:05At Scribner, Kevin Beetz has visitors for his second gold way of the season.
37:11Hi, family.
37:12Hi.
37:13How's your season going so far, guys?
37:17Long.
37:18Tired.
37:19Having lost two key crew members in two weeks, Kevin's about to find out if it's damaged his chances of hitting his 2,000-ounce target.
37:30Well, we drove by and you guys are Susan.
37:32Yeah.
37:33We, unfortunately, lost Caden.
37:34Yeah.
37:35Really?
37:36That kind of sucks.
37:37I thought he was quite happy here.
37:38Mm-hmm.
37:39Some things didn't quite work out, so he moved over to Parker's.
37:41You know how I look at that, right?
37:44There's always other people.
37:45Nobody cares.
37:46Get the next one.
37:47Right?
37:49Such a caring man.
37:50Well, I thought so.
37:52At least on the bright side, we have some gold.
37:55Two way up.
37:57Let's weigh it up.
37:58Let's find out.
37:59Kevin spent a week sluicing wet pay from his stockpiled piggy bank.
38:04To stay on target, he needs 88 ounces a week.
38:111, 5, 10, 24, 34, 44, 46, 48.46.
38:23Worth $170,000.
38:26Just over 100 ounces for the season so far.
38:29I mean, obviously, we'd like to see some bigger numbers, so we'll do what we can.
38:32Plenty of time left to make up.
38:34Yeah.
38:35So, uh, yes, siree.
38:36Anyways, we should all get back to work.
38:38You sound like my wife, for sake.
38:39She does that all the time, too.
38:40You know what, fate?
38:41It works really well.
38:42Bye, guys.
38:43See you.
38:44Later.
38:45It was lovely to see everyone.
38:46It was great.
38:47Be nice to have a bit more on the scale next time, but it'll come with time.
38:52We'll get there.
38:53Oh, yeah.
38:54Whoa.
38:55Are you going to behave?
38:57Looks like he's in a behaving mood.
38:59What's up, buddy?
39:01After getting Slucifer up and running, Parker's hoping for a big uptick in gold.
39:07You had quite a week, it sounds like.
39:08Yeah.
39:09Yeah, well, you hired on, uh, Kaden?
39:10Yeah.
39:11One of Kevin's old employees, right?
39:14Yeah.
39:15So, is Kevin even going to have a crew left by the time we're done here?
39:20I worked with him last night, too.
39:22Yeah, he's actually done.
39:23He's done.
39:24He's done.
39:25Yeah.
39:26Yeah, he's done.
39:27He's done.
39:28He's done.
39:29He's done, like, well, he's done.
39:30He's done.
39:31He's done.
39:32He's done.
39:33He's done.
39:34He's done.
39:35He's done.
39:36I worked with him last year.
39:38He's a good kid.
39:39He's a hard worker.
39:41So we got two plants going.
39:42You want to see how we're doing?
39:43Yeah.
39:44You want to read this one out?
39:45Here we go.
39:46This one's Bob.
39:47Last week, Bob delivered 126 ounces.
39:52Parker's hoping it's picked up the pace.
39:56We got 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140,
40:06150, 161.8.
40:10You're not really racing out of the starting gate.
40:14But it puts us in a lot better shape
40:16than where we were last year.
40:19I got sluice.
40:20Finally got sluice up and running.
40:21Yeah, first time on Dominion.
40:23Let's see how it did.
40:25Running the Golden Mile for three days,
40:27this is Parker's first chance
40:30to see how the new cut will pay out.
40:33So there's definitely some rich ground over there.
40:35I'm excited for that.
40:37Here we go.
40:3910, 20, 50, 70, 100, 110, 112.1.
40:49Nice.
40:50Not bad.
40:51Not bad at all.
40:52For the week, we got 273.9 ounces.
40:56Worth just under a million dollars.
41:00For the season, it's 399.7.
41:03Still a long ways to go.
41:06And you guys will have a third one
41:08fired up this week probably, huh?
41:09Uh, maybe two weeks.
41:12We better get on and find some more gold, Tyson.
41:14Get us rolling.
41:15Yeah, you guys better start
41:17pulling your weight around here.
41:18You know, it's great to have two wash plants
41:21running on Dominion,
41:22but we really need a third.
41:23Then we can really start getting
41:24some good numbers coming in.
41:25You know, like the husband's получ metal,
41:28all
41:29yay, for sure.
41:36You look for theouse,
41:37and you're looking for the knobs.

41:41Who else is ready for those?
41:42You're looking for the knobs on the wall.
41:44You're looking for everything on the wall.
