00:32There are a lot of wildfires right now.
00:35They've all been lit quite recently by lightning.
00:39There's one that's maybe like three or four miles from our camp.
00:45Which is a problem.
00:5130-year-old Parker Schnabel is on a path to a record $35 million season.
00:58But intense wildfires could shut him down at any moment.
01:07Oh, wow.
01:10Big fire.
01:12Dude, that is rager, huh?
01:19So right now the film crew's safety is telling us that we have to get out of the truck.
01:28You can feel the heat?
01:29Yeah.
01:30Really?
01:31I think we've got to pull our clean in.
01:33How come?
01:34Just, we are looking at a wildfire.
01:37I just don't think this is a good idea to be in this situation.
01:41Obviously you have a job to do.
01:42But the fact that we can see it means it's not moving fast towards us.
01:45If it was moving fast towards us, this would be all black smoke where we're standing.
01:50What's the plan?
01:51Are we going to go?
01:51I'm just going to sober.
01:53I'm just going to go check in with the boys.
01:55Like when you can't see it and all you can see is smoke is when it's really sketchy.
01:59Okay, well let's carry on then.
02:02Let's go.
02:03Come on.
02:05Over the last week, the Yukon has ignited into an inferno.
02:11Ninety-three wildfires are raging.
02:15Covering an area of over 250,000 acres.
02:20With a strong wind, they can travel over 150 miles in a day.
02:26There's one just two miles from Parker's Dominion Creek operation.
02:31And another just one mile from his Sulphur Creek claim.
02:38Right now we have three plants running.
02:41Dominion's going good.
02:43And things at Sulphur, Mitch and Brennan are doing really well.
02:46I really thought they were going to be done at Sulphur sooner.
02:49But, you know, one of those situations where I'm glad it's lasted longer because gold's been good.
02:54You know, they've put away some pretty good ounces for the size of pit that they've done.
03:02You know, we're on a mission right now trying to get to this 10,000-ounce target.
03:06And it seems like things might heat up a little bit on us here.
03:09We've got some fires burning just down the creek.
03:12They're heading this way.
03:13But hopefully we can keep everything motoring along here.
03:17Mitch has been racing to pull out all of the pay before the water license runs out in two weeks.
03:25Any delays caused by an evacuation could mean gold is left behind.
03:32How's it going?
03:33Good, how are you?
03:34Not too bad.
03:35A little smoky.
03:36Did you see the fire on the road?
03:38It is raging.
03:39And you can see, like, the line of fire.
03:41It's pretty impressive.
03:42I don't think it jumps the creek, though.
03:44So I think you're fine.
03:45Like, the worst thing that can happen is, like, you know, the road's engulfed in flames.
03:51Okay, I mean, as long as we've got a way out.
03:57Yeah.
03:57I mean, as long as those fires don't get too close and cause us any grief, we should be sluiced
04:02and moved out of here by the end of the week.
04:05Let's just talk to Nona real quick.
04:07If that fire, like, I don't think it'll make it across sulfur.
04:11It's very close.
04:13Do you think it'll make it across the valley?
04:15Yeah, there's a lot of trees around it.
04:17But will this stuff burn?
04:19Oh, yeah.
04:20With the heat like that, anything will burn.
04:27The wind right now is giving it that direction.
04:30And it's burned a lot since this morning.
04:33So we should see if we can get a helicopter if the road's engulfed in flames.
04:40The helicopters are going to be busy with the fires.
04:42I don't know if you're going to get, like, a helicopter that's going to come in every day and do
04:47that.
04:52It'd be nice if there was some rain.
04:54Yeah, we could use that for sure.
04:56This is such a bad time for me to leave.
05:02I'll be gone for, like, five days.
05:05Okay.
05:05I mean, you guys have a good handle on these things.
05:07Like, you'll probably be moved out of here by then.
05:11But we've got all the pay is at the plant right now.
05:14So it's just a matter of getting that sluiced.
05:16Brennan can head down to Ken's and start getting things sorted out there.
05:19We'll get this finished and pack it up and roll it down.
05:21Okay, sweet.
05:23Mitch and his crew need to finish sluicing all the stockpiled pay before the fires reach sulfur
05:29and then move wash plant Roxanne 25 miles to Ken and Stewart's at Indian River
05:37and get running before Parker's return in five days.
05:41What we're seeing right now is it's not just one fire we got burning.
05:44Everywhere you look here, when the smoke does clear up, there's fires all around us.
05:49All it takes is a wind to change direction, so not ideal by any means.
05:55I'm hoping that by the time I'm back, they'll have the plant down at Ken and Stewart's
05:58and hope the place hasn't burned to the ground,
06:03which not too often do I mean that literally.
06:33When you look at the sky, it was just covered in smoke.
06:36You fire, you can burn whatever they want.
06:38The gold on the ground don't care.
06:49So while the gold prices are high, don't sit there and think we've got it made.
06:54Just keep on going.
06:56As long as we can keep on sluicing, it doesn't matter.
07:00Don't miss the opportunity.
07:03Despite the fires two miles away, king of the Klondike, Tony Beetz,
07:09is working relentlessly to cash in on red-hot gold prices
07:13and has already banked over $9.5 million in gold, nearly half his seasoned gold.
07:22Right now we wanted to build some generational wealth mining for gold,
07:27and there has never been a better opportunity than today.
07:37Mike, you've got Herald going on the hill by Hester,
07:41running them old-time sailings.
07:44They still have to head to the piggy bank in order to keep it alive, right?
07:51You know, I don't take my time.
07:53I get it the f*** on the go.
07:54And they grab it while you can, because you never know if it's going to last.
08:01We had cousin Mike and Jacob running sluice log.
08:04They have to keep that bland f*** going.
08:07Tony's built a massive stockpile of pay dirt
08:10beside his only moneymaker at Indian River, sluice log.
08:15They have to get a sluice by the end of the week.
08:18Right now that's paying all the bills.
08:24Tony's mood is go, go, go.
08:27He wants us to keep running non-stop.
08:31Operator Eric Morel feeds 250 yards of stockpiled pay an hour through sluice log.
08:40This wash plant has been running 24-7, so it's taking a beating.
08:50That's Tony's way.
08:51He knows what he's doing, so I don't know.
08:58Oh, f***ing balls.
09:09Jacob, you copy Jacob.
09:12Go ahead.
09:13So, wash plant's been smoking.
09:15It's shut down.
09:16Okay, yeah.
09:24If you look in this box, some of the wiring is burnt right up.
09:30But as soon as you take the cover off, you can smell it,
09:32and it just smelt like it was trying to light on fire.
09:35But yeah, it makes sense.
09:35That motor's always vibrating all day.
09:41So, what do you got?
09:42So, one of the man wires is burnt.
09:45Like, the motor's out.
09:46So, that's f***ing overheated.
09:48Okay.
09:49Rip the f*** off.
09:50At least we got the problem.
09:51We got the motor.
09:52Yep.
09:52Hey, I hope you f***ing get it done.
09:57Sluice-a-lot shaker decks vibrate to separate waste dirt from the gold.
10:02A single 40-horsepower drive motor turns the plant's pulley system that shakes the decks.
10:09But its electrical wiring has worn through and caused a fire.
10:15Connor and Jacob need to remove the old 600-pound motor and replace it with a new one.
10:21Then, start the plant up and get back on the gold.
10:28Every hour, sluice-a-lot is down is costing Tony $8,000.
10:36I was very fortunate that we have parts on there, that we have the people to put it on and
10:41everything.
10:42But when the sluice box is down, it's just never quick enough anyway.
10:45So, I'll suffer a little longer.
11:01A little poison.
11:03Ready to f***ing get this thing up and landed.
11:12A little poison.
11:15Ready to f***ing get this thing up and landed.
11:18So, how's it going, guys?
11:20Good.
11:21Just getting the guard on there and fire it up.
11:23You have the f***ing on the go.
11:26After five hours, sluice-a-lot is ready to fire up again.
11:41All right, looks like you did it, brother.
11:42Good job.
11:43Yeah.
11:44Yeah.
11:46Yeah.
11:55What the f***?
12:02Did you just stop it?
12:03No.
12:04Not too sure what's happening.
12:25Tony's only Indian River moneymaker, sluice-a-lot, has been fitted with a new shaker deck motor.
12:31But the plant has mysteriously ground to a halt.
12:35So, what do you got?
12:36No, this is starting to go too far into electrician's f***ing space.
12:40It is very unlikely we'll be running this tonight.
12:42So, we're going to get the pump shut off.
12:44We're going to get rid of the people.
12:45Not much you're going to do about it.
12:47Okay.
12:48I mean, $8,000 an hour.
12:51F*** this f***.
12:54Tony has lost $40,000 and counting in gold production.
13:00Hey, well, we're probably going to need an electrician to fix it.
13:05So, we'll call the people that build them, see what they say.
13:09But I'll bet you we'll be down for a day or two.
13:39I'll bet you we'll be down for a day or two.
13:41I'll bet you a ton of money into this ground down at Lightning Creek.
13:44And, you know, I've got to get that money back out of it.
13:47In the mountains above Keno City, far from the fires, Rick Ness has a big decision to make.
13:55For six weeks, he's been working his new Lightning Creek claim.
14:00But the gold has been hard to find, banking him only 29 ounces.
14:07Days ago, he got access to his Vegas Valley claim on Duncan Creek.
14:13In the beginning of the season, we didn't have a water license on Vegas Valley.
14:16But now, we've got an extension on that too.
14:19But I can't just abandon Lightning Creek.
14:21That's a lot of money wrapped up in that.
14:23And I know there's gold there.
14:25And I've got to figure out how to get it out.
14:28Rick wants to try to make this profitable.
14:30He bought the land.
14:31But at the end of the day, you know, we should all be at Vegas Valley.
14:36There's good gold there.
14:37And so far here, it's not turning out the best.
14:42Rick's crew can't comprehend why he doesn't just leave Lightning Creek and move back to Vegas Valley,
14:49where there's a pile of pay dirt with upwards of 400 ounces in it and a cut full of gold
14:56-rich pay.
14:58We need to get down there to Vegas Valley, get that better gold, because this is not having it at
15:03the moment.
15:05You know, this is record-setting gold prices right now.
15:10And at this point, we're going to be setting record gold lows on the nest crew.
15:16The fact of the matter is that I still owe Troy 100 ounces of gold to buy Lightning Creek.
15:26To get the gold he needs, Rick's decided to split his crew.
15:31We've got, you know, several things that need to happen before.
15:34We can even get going here.
15:35You know, we've got to get a pump into Vegas Valley, get that dewatering first at hand.
15:38Not to mention, we've got a bunch of fixes to do on Monster Red yet.
15:41There's a fair amount to be done, but, you know, we just got to buckle down and get it done.
15:46We need this 700 to work.
15:47It's the only way we're going to be able to keep both things going.
15:50The 700 excavator is Rick's only free piece of equipment,
15:55and getting it ready is critical to his plan.
15:59Rick wants me to do a little look over on this, make sure it's greased up.
16:02We can see that the tracks never got shoveled at the end of last year, so that's fun.
16:06But, yeah, we'll jump up, check fluids, get it fired up.
16:13You know, I've got a lack of people, a lack of machines to do it,
16:15but I'm going to have to figure something out,
16:17because I think this year is the year to go for broke, you know.
16:23Eric, you got a copy?
16:25Copy, go for broke.
16:27Hey, any chance you can come over to 700?
16:30Got a pretty big issue.
16:34Copy that.
16:46What are we dealing with?
16:48So we've got a problem.
16:49This should be coolant.
16:51This should be all you see.
16:52And right now, I've got a mixture of oil and coolant,
16:55and that's a big problem.
16:57Basically, if there's a crack in that head gasket, the 700's dead.
17:02The 700's 460 horsepower engine won't fire up.
17:08Ryan suspects the head gasket that provides an airtight seal
17:13between the cylinder head and the engine block has broken,
17:17allowing oil and coolant to mix together,
17:21causing the engine to stop working.
17:24With potential damage to the cylinders,
17:27the whole engine needs a total rebuild.
17:33Yeah, that mess right there tells me everything.
17:38I mean, I've been worried about getting fuel and food up here
17:42because of these wildfires.
17:43I mean, how are we going to get an engine or anything?
17:46Yeah.
17:52I might as well take this out of the picture.
17:54I think so.
17:55Completely, right?
17:56Rick's plans to slowly prep Vegas Valley are already in ruins.
18:00If he takes any more equipment from Lightning Creek,
18:04he won't be able to continue mining.
18:08So it kind of puts you in a predicament.
18:10Yeah.
18:11I know you're bringing gold in,
18:12but that's not going to hit 1,800 ounces.
18:14Dude, we've seen just the tip of what's in Vegas Valley.
18:17We know what's there.
18:181,800 ounces is going to come from Lightning Creek.
18:21It's going to come from Vegas.
18:22And I think we've got to get over there and get the going.
18:28I mean, there's a lot of that needs to be done.
18:30And if we got all hands on deck down here,
18:33that's not going to get done.
18:34Well, I mean, yeah, I get it.
18:36I get where you're coming from.
18:37I see it.
18:38But I'm not willing to just abandon Lightning Creek
18:40or get gold.
18:42I don't like being that guy.
18:43It's like, hey, you need to do your business like this
18:45because obviously you know what the you're doing.
18:47You've made it this long.
18:48You've done it this far.
18:49But it's like at some point,
18:51I've got to think about at home too
18:53where it's like, you know,
18:54we come up here and it's,
18:55if we don't do good here,
18:57I fail at home.
18:58So everything rides on kind of your shoulders, honestly.
19:04Dude, we got to make the move.
19:07I, yeah.
19:09I'm not just going to shut down Lightning Creek.
19:11I want to sluice there a bit longer,
19:12just a couple more days.
19:13And I just want to see what's going on there.
19:15I want to see if it's going to pay out.
19:16Then we can move to Vegas Valley.
19:18Okay.
19:20By sluicing for a couple more days
19:22at Lightning Creek,
19:23Rick will discover how good the gold is
19:26and maybe score enough
19:28to pay for the ground outright.
19:50mythos,
19:50know,
19:55okay,
19:55I
19:55qui
19:55you
19:55I
20:07You know, you look at the weather today and the rain coming down, it's really helped us
20:11out.
20:12After a night and day of rainfall, the wildfires are out.
20:19Well, it looks like we've got about two more scoops of material here, sulfur to go through
20:23rocks and.
20:24We're going to get this wash plant shut down, cleaned up, packed up, and on the road down
20:30to Ken's, and hopefully we got our fire back up here before Parker shows up.
20:35Now, Mitch is racing to finish sluicing sulfur, reclaim the land, then move wash plant Roxanne
20:43to Ken and Stewart's at Indian River.
20:50All right, Mitch, that's it, last scoop here, Roxanne.
20:54It's all right then, buddy.
20:55I'll come over and we'll shut it down right now.
20:57Yep, sounds good, boss.
21:04Mitch's crew worked quickly to clean out the sluices.
21:10So here at Salford, the last cleanup, we've had a lot of gold coming out of this ground,
21:16so it's been a huge success.
21:20Next, they pack down Roxanne and get her ready to travel 25 miles down to Ken and Stewart's.
21:30You ready for this, buddy?
21:31Yeah, man.
21:32It's been a while since you moved to wash plant.
21:34Yeah.
21:35Well, this one's pretty good as far as moving the shaker deck, but the biggest problem here
21:40is the sluice runs.
21:40They're so wide.
21:41All right.
21:44So right now, I'm going to send Jack with the shaker deck first, grab the sluice runs,
21:51and get them down there.
21:53Okay.
21:53Then we can put everything together.
21:55Roxanne is transported in two loads.
21:58The shaker deck goes first on the back of a low boy.
22:03Mitch holds the oversized sluice runs in a second truck, and Brennan goes ahead in the pilot
22:10car.
22:12All right.
22:13Here we go.
22:14They're going to see us rolling with this one, that's for sure.
22:26You know, you can see just how narrow this is, and we're already rubbing the trees here
22:30with the sluice runs.
22:34Well, this is the million-dollar question here, is if those sluice runs are going to clear
22:38the bridge without having to jack them way up?
22:42I was wondering about that.
22:46So the bridge is going to be one of our big pinch points.
22:49I think it's going to be tight now, and like, we measured it up.
22:53Looks like we should have a half inch of clearance, but we won't know until we get there, but we're
22:57going to find out here real soon.
22:58The 27-foot-wide sluice boxes need to pass across a bridge with a width restriction of
23:07just 21 feet.
23:09To get the load across, the outside edges of the sluice runs need to be above the bridge
23:15structure.
23:17I'm going to keep creeping it ahead.
23:19Yeah.
23:20But you're going to need to be down here eyeballing it, and tell me when to stop if
23:24it's going to get , right?
23:25Yeah.
23:26I mean, the worst-case scenario here, dude, is we give this thing a try, and we get out
23:29here in the middle, and we get stuck.
23:31There's no working on it from here.
23:33Yeah, exactly.
23:34Okay, I'm going to do this.
23:36Okay, you guys are going to have to get way back.
23:39The sluice runs have a clearance of just half an inch above the bridge railings.
23:53Keep coming, buddy.
23:57Oh, man, it's almost dragging.
24:08Oh, come on.
24:10Come on.
24:10Come on.
24:10Come on.
24:11Don't snag.
24:22Yeah, that couldn't have been any closer.
24:24You couldn't have put your fingers between where we had, you know, the top of that bridge
24:29and the bottom of these sluice runs here.
24:34There it is.
24:39We've made it into the cut.
24:44Woo!
24:47There it is.
24:49Over the past eight years, Parker's leased ground at Kennan Stewart's has delivered nearly
24:567,000 ounces of gold.
24:58This season, he wants at least another 2,000 ounces from the claims.
25:11Kennan Stewart's ground, you know, it's, like, not the greatest grade, and we're paying royalties,
25:17but it's a massive block of ground that I don't want to lose, and, you know, it's very hard
25:23to lease ground, particularly not when the price of gold's really good.
25:29So I'm just heading to see Mitch and Brennan and see what they've got going on.
25:39Oh, they have a wash plant running.
25:42They literally just fired up.
25:44Thanks.
25:48Thanks for getting this thing going.
25:50I appreciate it.
25:51He's sluicing.
25:53Did you guys make this look easy?
25:56At least from my standpoint, it looked easy.
25:58I left, and you were sluicing in one spot, and I came back, and you're sluicing in another.
26:02And yet, Mitch, you're getting a big gold star.
26:04I actually should have Chris Poore a big gold star.
26:08I might just do that.
26:20Well, it's, you know, really nice we had Roxanne fired up before Parker got back.
26:24So our next step here is just to try and get this loose as fast as we can, and we're
26:28gonna try and turn all that dirt into a big pile of gold.
26:41So today, I had to call in James, because there is no electrician in town that can handle
26:46this kind of .
26:47If he can't fix it, you pretty much will toast.
26:50On Indian River, Tony's main moneymaker, Sluicelot, has been down for four days after
26:57the shaker deck motor burnt out and its replacement failed.
27:04Yeah, Tony can call me once every two years or 12 times in the same month.
27:08It just depends on what they're wrecking that day.
27:12Electrician James MacKrell has worked with mining machinery for over 30 years.
27:20So we fired the new motor on.
27:22Just, like, spin slowly, and then it's like, nope.
27:25And it goes into overload fold.
27:26Yeah, 22 overload fold.
27:27Yeah.
27:28Which is, I think the problem's a soft start.
27:30What we're gonna do is we're gonna hard start it.
27:32We're gonna bypass it.
27:32Okay, cool.
27:33We're gonna hard start it.
27:35Sluicelot's generator has a soft start system that gradually increases power to the shaker
27:42deck's drive motor to prevent it from being damaged by an electrical overload when it starts.
27:49James believes the generator's soft start safeguard is faulty and is not supplying enough electricity,
27:57so wants to bypass it to deliver the power needed for the motor to fire up.
28:06This option is the, shall we say, the bush fix, and it'll get them up and running again,
28:11and then, you know, Tony can decide if he wants to replace that soft start or keep running this way.
28:18Now let's give her the full deal and see what happens.
28:20All right.
28:33I bet you that just went into overload.
28:35The hard start fix fails.
28:38So far, downtime has cost Tony an estimated three quarters of a million dollars in lost production.
28:46It's been quite a few days without it making money, so it's not good.
28:51All right.
28:52Let's look for better ways to do this.
28:53Yeah.
29:04The generator's just undersized to hard start this unit without the soft start, and you know what?
29:10Probably the simplest solution, bring over a bigger generator.
29:15It's four days since Tony Beat's main moneymaker, Slusalot, shut down.
29:22Electrician James has bypassed its soft start-up, but still failed to fire up the shaker deck's drive motor.
29:31Oh, if that engine was just slightly bigger, you'd get away with this.
29:34With hard starting it, yeah.
29:36Well, I got bigger end boot.
29:38And there's one sitting right here doing eight-inch, and whatever it takes, we'll get it over.
29:42That's the thing I saw start.
29:45Let's go.
29:45I don't think of that.
29:46We'll find it.
29:47We'll be back.
29:54Slusalot's current generator has a maximum power of 100 kilowatts.
30:02So we have this one, and this thing at least makes noise.
30:09Tony's CAT 3406 replacement kicks out four times more power.
30:16Instead of taking it off, we're going to weld the thing on.
30:19Because you've got the fuel tank, you've got everything that's hooked up.
30:21So why around?
30:23Weld it back on, take two minutes, drive it over there, stick the wire in the gen set, then we're
30:29rolling.
30:29To prep the five-ton generator, Tony plans to weld it to the front of his 50-year-old pipe
30:36layer and drive the hybrid monster one mile to Slusalot.
30:51Let's go!
31:03We've been down for four days, so that's a lot of ounces we're missing.
31:07And with the gold price these days, that's a lot of money.
31:26Everything's all connected, waiting on a generator.
31:30And then we'll make power.
31:33All we have to do when it gets here is just connect that cable into the generator.
31:37Is he driving that thing down?
31:38Yeah.
31:38I don't know, if he's the one driving it, it probably won't take too long, so.
31:46After just 30 minutes, Tony's mobilized monster generator arrives at Slusalot.
31:57It doesn't matter what it looks, it doesn't matter what it takes, what you improvise, and anything to get back
32:03up and going, right?
32:05They're all hooked up and ready to roll.
32:18Fire up!
32:21You ready?
32:35After four days shut down...
32:38Awesome, thank you very much sir.
32:39Tony is back on the gold.
32:46Tony's washing rocks, and he's happy, yeah.
32:49He puts gold in the box, and then he can give it to me, so.
32:54It's all good.
32:55We're back to sluicing.
32:56Making some money, I suppose.
32:58You can't make up for lost time, but at least we're back running.
33:02That's the most important thing.
33:14We're in for Bailey.
33:15Yeah, go ahead, man.
33:17Shut down Lightning Creek.
33:18We'll move him back to Vegas Valley.
33:20Sounds good to me, man.
33:23Yeah, we're just about to send the last load of pay over to Rocky.
33:27Rick made a call saying that we're all going to be done here,
33:30and we're going to head down to Vegas Valley
33:31and start hitting our heart down there.
33:36Well, here it is.
33:37We've got the final bucket of dirt from Lightning Creek,
33:42and we are officially finished here.
33:46Off to Vegas Valley we go.
33:49Rick Ness is changing gears.
33:52After running a final couple of days' pay,
33:55he's shutting down his Lightning Creek claim
33:58and going all in on Vegas Valley.
34:06All right, we've got the 460 down here now.
34:09Game plan is we'll be getting the water pump in Vegas Valley.
34:12We'll go through it, make sure it's good to go.
34:14Then we'll get our discharge line ran,
34:17so we've had quite a bit of work to do.
34:20Rick's plan, set up a pump
34:23to drain the 30 feet of water from the cut
34:26while the rest of the team moves equipment
34:28and preps wash plant Monster Red
34:31to run a stockpile of pay dirt.
34:41Well, we've got a long ways to go,
34:43but we should be spending the rest of the summer here.
34:45So, pump's just about ready.
34:47I think the first step is just getting it in where it fits in.
34:49Get that water, get the out of there.
34:51We'll get on it.
34:51I like it.
34:52Thanks.
34:58All right, man.
34:59What's he doing?
35:00We ready?
35:07We got our 12-inch pump ready to go.
35:09She's a monster.
35:12Just got to get down here around the corner,
35:15get the lines hooked up,
35:16and we can start dewatering Vegas Valley.
35:17It's a big step.
35:18It gives us one step closer to the gold
35:20that's in Vegas Valley.
35:21We know that gold's good,
35:22so we're going to get this done
35:24and get it done in a hurry.
35:31That's all shallow.
35:32You're going to have to try to get it in that corner.
35:34Where?
35:35Like, all the way out?
35:35I think we just try to go all the way
35:37and see how tough it is.
35:43We've got sections in here that are way deeper
35:45than what you think.
35:46Right here, it's probably going to be 30 foot higher
35:49than what we have in that corner right there
35:50from ending last season, if not more.
35:52So we've got to be careful.
35:54The $100,000 pump can move 5,000 gallons a minute
35:59and will drain Vegas Valley down to gold-rich pay
36:02in three days.
36:04Yeah, we can go forward a little bit.
36:06We're good right there.
36:15So we've got the pump into place.
36:16Now just bring the intake line down there.
36:19We're going to attach that to the pump.
36:24Throw the suction end in to the water.
36:26Then we'll come back and get the discharge line.
36:28Set that in there.
36:29And after that, we just turn it on
36:31and let the water get out of our hole.
36:39It's at a f***ed up angle.
36:42And we're in a spot where we're easily
36:44going to f***ing bend this thing.
36:45And it's like, I can't throw that end out there first.
36:48I don't know where the f*** it's going to end.
36:49Yeah.
36:50Here, I think if you bring it in and lower it,
36:53the two of us can be lifting up.
36:55Kyle can be sticking the bolt in.
36:56You got a pinch bar or anything to get it?
36:58No, but I've got some long bolts.
36:59We'll make it work.
37:00Okay.
37:04To attach the suction hose to the pump,
37:07Rick needs to move his 460 excavator
37:11dangerously close to the water's edge.
37:15I don't know what's on a new page.
37:17Is that thing a little heavy for that?
37:23Okay.
37:23All right, right there.
37:28Now, if he goes down...
37:34Hey, hold on.
37:47She's got it.
37:57All right.
37:59All right.
38:01Pump connected.
38:03Rick is one step closer
38:06to getting gold from Vegas Valley.
38:09All right, you want to fire this thing up?
38:11Okay.
38:18What are you going?
38:21Whoa!
38:25Now we've got some water moving.
38:28We are pumping water, boys.
38:32All this water's coming out of Vegas Valley.
38:33Get us that much closer to the gold down there.
38:35I'm ready to see some.
38:39I'm nervous about Lightning Creek.
38:41Hopefully it's got gold in it for Troy.
38:43I'm relieved that we're moving back here.
38:45We've got one last chance here at Vegas Valley.
38:47We've got to treat it like the last chance again.
38:48You know, we got to November on our extension,
38:50and we're going to scrape it clean.
38:53Get everything we can out of it.
38:54All the gold.
39:08All eyes are on Heather Folster
39:10to see if Lightning Creek's last gold way
39:13will hit the 100 ounces Rick needs
39:15to pay Troy Taylor.
39:17You want to give that a swirl?
39:18That's the first to the first.
39:20That's a lot of gold.
39:21That's a lot better than it was.
39:23It's another drop in the bucket
39:24where it's 1,800 ounces.
39:26It might get us to where I can pay Troy.
39:28Hey-oh!
39:44Well, Heather got done cleaning up the gold
39:46from the last run at Lightning Creek.
39:50He said it actually looks pretty good.
39:52I can definitely tell it was enough
39:55to justify staying there for another run,
39:57so I'm happy about that.
40:00Rick Ness has hit pause
40:02on his Lightning Creek claim
40:04to pursue Vegas Valley,
40:06but he still needs to see it deliver good gold
40:09to prove it's a viable spot.
40:12Based on the run time,
40:14he's hoping for at least 50 ounces this week.
40:18I think the ground looked any better.
40:19Lightning Creek on this last run.
40:20Yeah, it definitely seemed like a little bit better
40:22than the normal stuff,
40:23like less bedrock, more f***ing pay.
40:26The boulders are getting a little bigger.
40:27Yeah, yeah.
40:29So I take it the 700's dead?
40:31The 700, we thought we pinpointed the problem.
40:34We saw it failed,
40:34and so I think we're in deeper.
40:37We're going to be into a head or worse,
40:40so that leaves basically just the 750.
40:54Danny!
40:55Hello!
40:55What's going on?
40:56Ah, you know, all the best stuff.
41:00Got a bottle of gold, though.
41:03Let's see what we got, man.
41:05Yeah.
41:06Last week, the boulder cut only delivered 22 ounces.
41:11Here we go.
41:15One.
41:16Five.
41:18Twelve.
41:20Twenty.
41:22Thirty.
41:26Fifteen.
41:28Fifty point four.
41:30F*** that.
41:30That's not bad.
41:31F*** yeah, that's way better than the last two.
41:32Yeah.
41:33Both two combined.
41:34F*** right.
41:35You're mad.
41:35You're mad.
41:35You're in the right way.
41:36Yeah.
41:37It's Rick's best gold way of the season,
41:39and pushes his total to 80 ounces,
41:43but leaves him 20 ounces short
41:45of what he owes Troy Taylor.
41:48I mean, at the end of the day,
41:49you know, that's damn near 150 grand.
41:53So happy we stayed there,
41:54but we're going to be leaving Lightning Creek.
41:56You know, we're leaving it behind for the season.
41:57It's just going to have to happen, right?
41:58Like, for the foreseeable future.
42:00I mean, at least the gold's there, though.
42:02Yeah, you're leaving it on a high note.
42:03Exactly.
42:04We're leaving it with a positive,
42:05and, you know, we put some gold towards our total,
42:07and we took a long ways to go, but...
42:09You only need a little bit more to pay off Troy.
42:11Yeah.
42:12But it's in the pile, I think it's valid.
42:14Yeah, we know that.
42:15F*** yeah, man.
42:15Let's f***ing do it.
42:16Awesome.
42:20Well, you know, we got 50 ounces of gold this week.
42:22It's a small dent in the total we're trying to get,
42:251,800 ounces,
42:25but that's why we're doing what we're going to do, right?
42:27We're putting all of our resources into Vegas Valley
42:30because that's where we know the gold is.
42:32You know, it sucks to leave Lightning Creek.
42:34We're just getting to learn it,
42:36and, you know, we got 50 ounces of gold out of it,
42:37but, you know, that's the name of the game.
42:39You go where the gold is,
42:40and the gold's in Vegas Valley this year.
42:52Hi, guys.
42:53Howdy, folks.
42:53Hola.
42:53Hello.
43:00How's Harold making out?
43:01Well, she's still sluicing.
43:03How's it going with the trauma?
43:04Slowly, because every time I seem to take one step forward,
43:06I find three other things I have to fix,
43:08so that's three steps back.
43:09So pretty slow, pretty slow?
43:11Yeah.
43:11So how are things here?
43:13We sluiced a bit,
43:14but not as much as we like to.
43:16We had some electrical issues,
43:18so we had to get an electrician.
43:20We had to wait for that.
43:21We can fix things,
43:22but electricity is not our thing, so...
43:24How many days did you really sluice?
43:26So we sluiced two days and two nights.
43:28Yeah, well...
43:29Still not too bad, though.
43:30Yeah, you can't win every day.
43:33No.
43:33Can we weigh it up?
43:35So far, Tony has averaged 330 ounces of gold per week
43:41from the Indian River.
43:42Okay, for it.
43:44Okay, it's 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100,
43:53under 10, 120, 121.10.
44:01Worth $420,000,
44:04but much less than he could have gotten
44:07if they'd run all week.
44:13Ready to count, Mike?
44:14Mike's been sluicing old-timer tailings at the hill and it should deliver 50
44:20ounces a week 10 20 36.88 how much time was that Mike probably around about five
44:30days that's not very good is it no even though Mike's gold is worth over a
44:39hundred thousand dollars Tony wants a record-breaking season and that means
44:45Paradise Hill needs to deliver much bigger halls so then I think Mike just
44:51shut the thing off and concentrate in the trommel that's yeah I agree then maybe
44:57you can start bringing in some real gold of course it's gonna make a hell of a
45:08difference sounds like a plan dude so when do you get the out go back to work
45:15how's that okay bye those fires were impressive yeah that was crazy yeah out of
45:26nowhere and all of a sudden it's like man it's really cloudy this morning it's not
45:30clouds that smoke it's smoky enough around here I skip my breakfast cigar yeah
45:37and then we had even with all the fires giving us grief we did manage to get the
45:41last of us least you want to see how you guys finished up let's do it despite
45:46battling wildfires Mitch still managed to wash the last of the gold rich sulfur pay
45:52which last week delivered 302 ounces that's the last of sulfur yes let's do it
45:59all right we got 50 100 150 go to 200
46:14221.2 nice that's a solid solid end yeah sulfur produced over 1300 ounces
46:24quite impressive yeah next up Parker's Dominion Creek gold first the golden
46:31mile cut which is averaged 200 ounces a week 20 40 120 140 160 200 230 250 to 273.15
46:461.5 that was a good week and then Bob has just been chugging away yeah old faithful Bob in
46:57the bridge cut has averaged a hundred and sixty ounces a week 20 40 80 100 120 140 160 200
47:11to 12 to
47:1316.15 that's a good week super good this week we have 710.5 we broke 700 ounces in one
47:25week worth 2.5 million dollars so our total for the season is four thousand two hundred and fifty one
47:34point seven ounces we're definitely on track for our ten thousand we're in good we're in good shape you guys
47:40keep it that way
47:42yeah hopefully go and make some work
47:50well it's so cool to get sulfur done great project there produced a lot of gold it was definitely a
47:56tricky move there but Roxanne is down on a whole bunch of ground at Ken's excited to see what it
48:01has to produce
48:02we're in good shape you guys
