Narrator "Gold rush"...
2
00:00:08,743 --> 00:00:10,642
We got water
Coming over the top.
3
00:00:10,644 --> 00:00:13,278
Hit the water line.
4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:14,800
I thought you knew
What you were doing.
5
00:00:17,218 --> 00:00:18,917
Rick That's what I call dumb.
6
00:00:18,919 --> 00:00:20,586
If these problems
Keep happening,
7
00:00:20,588 --> 00:00:21,720
Then it costs us money.
8
00:00:23,758 --> 00:00:25,324
I don't give much slack To guys.
9
00:00:25,326 --> 00:00:26,725
That want more responsibility.
10
00:00:26,727 --> 00:00:28,827
Hey, shut it off!
11
00:00:28,829 --> 00:00:32,231
These fine tailings,
They're gonna back right up.
12
00:00:32,233 --> 00:00:34,233
Parker comes here and sees this,
He's gonna lose his mind.
13
00:00:34,235 --> 00:00:37,836
What the.
14
00:00:37,838 --> 00:00:39,104
This isn't really how
We do things here.
15
00:00:39,106 --> 00:00:40,706
Come up with another
Solution, brennan.
16
00:00:40,708 --> 00:00:41,740
Sakes.
17
00:00:53,954 --> 00:00:55,020
Man Holy.
18
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,027

Parker This season's
Been pretty manic.
22
00:01:34,228 --> 00:01:35,894
We're just over halfway
Through the year,
23
00:01:35,896 --> 00:01:38,063
And everything's
Been a mess, a fight,
24
00:01:38,065 --> 00:01:41,066
And we're still trying
Hard to get to 6,000 ounces.
25
00:01:41,068 --> 00:01:42,434
Narrator Parker schnabel is.
26
00:01:42,436 --> 00:01:46,305
Chasing a colossal
$7.2 million goal.
27
00:01:49,343 --> 00:01:54,313
He's mined just
Over $3.7 million,
28
00:01:54,315 --> 00:01:58,784
But he's struggling
To keep up the pace.
29
00:01:58,786 --> 00:02:00,853
Yeah, we're pretty short-staffed
At the moment,
30
00:02:00,855 --> 00:02:03,355
But these plants have to run.
31
00:02:03,357 --> 00:02:04,957
Crank it up.
32
00:02:07,328 --> 00:02:09,695
Narrator
At one end of his 61-acre cut,
33
00:02:09,697 --> 00:02:13,866
Foreman dean is throwing
All available resources.
34
00:02:13,868 --> 00:02:15,801
At running sluicifer.
35
00:02:18,205 --> 00:02:19,872
Dean Get it done with
And get sluicing.
36
00:02:22,209 --> 00:02:23,709
Parker It pretty much
Leaves brennan alone.
37
00:02:23,711 --> 00:02:26,311
Down at big red, which is
A pretty big challenge,
38
00:02:26,313 --> 00:02:29,648
But he'll just have
To make it work.
39
00:02:29,650 --> 00:02:31,917
Narrator
Brennan, recently put in charge.
40
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,586
At big red, is keeping
The plant running.
41
00:02:34,588 --> 00:02:38,757
By hot-seating between the
Rock truck and the excavator.
42
00:02:38,759 --> 00:02:41,827
Brennan
Hot-seating the yukon crossfit.
43
00:02:41,829 --> 00:02:43,095
Whoo.
44
00:02:43,097 --> 00:02:44,830
That's exactly what the hell
I'm doing right now.
45
00:02:44,832 --> 00:02:48,600
Narrator While his only crew
Member, bree, feeds the plant.
46
00:02:51,405 --> 00:02:54,773
Pitbull, smokes, let's go.
47
00:02:54,775 --> 00:02:56,508
Well, I don't run
Truck very often,
48
00:02:56,510 --> 00:03:00,279
But when I do, I'll make
Sure I give it a workout.
49
00:03:00,281 --> 00:03:02,781
Hey, bree, give me
One of your smokes.
50
00:03:02,783 --> 00:03:04,116
Bree Off!
51
00:03:08,856 --> 00:03:10,589
I really enjoy
Working with brennan.
52
00:03:10,591 --> 00:03:12,424
Play jokes on each other,
Give each other.
53
00:03:12,426 --> 00:03:15,294
But we're friends
And we get along.
54
00:03:25,272 --> 00:03:26,838
Brennan Parker's already
Threatened to throw me back.
55
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,241
In the hose seat
If I can't hold up my word.
56
00:03:29,243 --> 00:03:30,776
On this gold that we've set.
57
00:03:30,778 --> 00:03:33,979
I've had enough loading trucks,
It's not what I want to do.
58
00:03:35,883 --> 00:03:37,616
Aw.
59
00:03:37,618 --> 00:03:39,418
Hey, brennan,
Can you come over here?
60
00:03:45,392 --> 00:03:47,326
These fine tailings come up
Another 6 inches,
61
00:03:47,328 --> 00:03:49,595
They're gonna back right up
This run.
62
00:03:49,597 --> 00:03:50,662
When that happens,
63
00:03:50,664 --> 00:03:52,497
The gold shoots right off
The end of this.
64
00:03:54,235 --> 00:03:55,634
Parker comes here and sees this,
65
00:03:55,636 --> 00:03:57,703
He's gonna Lose his mind.
66
00:03:57,705 --> 00:03:59,371
I've got to get the loader.
67
00:04:02,910 --> 00:04:07,713
Narrator Big red's pad was
Originally 80 feet high,
68
00:04:07,715 --> 00:04:09,748
But the tailings have built up.
69
00:04:09,750 --> 00:04:13,952
And have now reached
The sluice runs.
70
00:04:13,954 --> 00:04:15,787
Brennan I got to keep digging
Us out, digging us out,
71
00:04:15,789 --> 00:04:16,922
Digging us out.
72
00:04:16,924 --> 00:04:18,190
It slows me down.
73
00:04:18,192 --> 00:04:19,825
I can't go down and dig out
The pay I need to.
74
00:04:19,827 --> 00:04:24,997
Narrator If the fine tailings
Back up into the sluice boxes,
75
00:04:24,999 --> 00:04:26,798
They will clog the riffles.
76
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,901
And gold will pour out
Into the tailings.
77
00:04:32,039 --> 00:04:34,906
Brennan's solution...
Use the loader to clear.
78
00:04:34,908 --> 00:04:37,776
The tailings from the bottom
Of the sluices.
79
00:04:43,384 --> 00:04:45,250
Brennan Every time I'm told
I'm gonna get some trucks,
80
00:04:45,252 --> 00:04:46,652
They never show up.
81
00:04:46,654 --> 00:04:49,087
So, here I am stuck In a loader,
82
00:04:49,089 --> 00:04:51,023
Not doing what I need to do.
83
00:04:51,025 --> 00:04:54,326
I'm getting a little bit
Pissed off here.
84
00:04:54,328 --> 00:04:56,328
Here's Parker right now.
85
00:04:56,330 --> 00:04:58,864
I have no idea what he wants,
But I'm preparing.
86
00:04:58,866 --> 00:05:01,800
Myself for an ear
Full of right now.
87
00:05:03,537 --> 00:05:05,237
What the?
88
00:05:12,079 --> 00:05:13,979
What's going on here?
89
00:05:13,981 --> 00:05:17,549
Fighting These fine tailings.
90
00:05:17,551 --> 00:05:19,618
This isn't really how
We do things here.
91
00:05:19,620 --> 00:05:21,219
The reason we put all
These conveyors in,
92
00:05:21,221 --> 00:05:24,723
Is that one loader
Runs the plant.
93
00:05:24,725 --> 00:05:26,391
I know we've sat in this
Spot for quite some time,
94
00:05:26,393 --> 00:05:29,027
Sluicing, but you got
To get creative with.
95
00:05:29,029 --> 00:05:31,129
Where you're Putting tailings.
96
00:05:31,131 --> 00:05:34,399
And try to avoid this
As much as possible.
97
00:05:34,401 --> 00:05:35,600
Like, you need to be Doing other.
98
00:05:35,602 --> 00:05:36,868
Well, I'm trying my
Hardest here, you know,
99
00:05:36,870 --> 00:05:38,136
I'm short-staffed
And I want to make.
100
00:05:38,138 --> 00:05:39,371
This run like
A well-oiled machine.
101
00:05:39,373 --> 00:05:40,605
You say that a lot, you
Say I'll get it done,
102
00:05:40,607 --> 00:05:44,409
You say, "I'll make a plan,"
And here we are.
103
00:05:47,014 --> 00:05:49,881
You have to come up with
Another solution, brennan.
104
00:05:49,883 --> 00:05:52,918
I'll take matters in my own
Hands and figure something out.
105
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,087
This is Frustrating for me, too.
106
00:06:02,563 --> 00:06:04,229
Sakes!
107
00:06:18,412 --> 00:06:20,045
Narrator
Tony beets has been running.
108
00:06:20,047 --> 00:06:24,249
Dredge one and
Monica's wash plant.
109
00:06:24,251 --> 00:06:26,785
So when you're bringing
Pay right up here,
110
00:06:26,787 --> 00:06:29,054
Line up and then
Go straight back.
111
00:06:29,056 --> 00:06:32,424
But he's only mined
2,400 ounces...
112
00:06:35,362 --> 00:06:40,098
Way behind his rival parker
In their race to 6,000 ounces.
113
00:07:09,563 --> 00:07:10,883
What's going on,
What's happening?
114
00:07:14,134 --> 00:07:15,300
If you're sure.
115
00:07:18,672 --> 00:07:20,439
Here we go again.
116
00:07:35,556 --> 00:07:39,357
Kevin What the hell?
117
00:07:39,359 --> 00:07:41,393
Are you serious?
118
00:07:55,375 --> 00:07:57,709
I remember feeding it on
A hill with the buggies.
119
00:07:57,711 --> 00:07:58,844
Ngngngng!
120
00:08:00,380 --> 00:08:01,413
Yeah.
121
00:08:04,618 --> 00:08:05,884
Well, we have it.
122
00:08:09,656 --> 00:08:11,256
Yeah.
123
00:08:17,030 --> 00:08:19,764
Narrator
The pearson box is old school.
124
00:08:22,836 --> 00:08:25,003
There are no moving parts.
125
00:08:25,005 --> 00:08:29,241
Instead the monster's
Spray bars pound 9,000 gallons.
126
00:08:29,243 --> 00:08:31,776
Of water a minute
Onto the pay dirt.
127
00:08:33,914 --> 00:08:37,048
The water separates
Off the worthless rocks.
128
00:08:37,050 --> 00:08:41,386
Through this center chute.
129
00:08:41,388 --> 00:08:44,189
And sends the gold-rich
Material down.
130
00:08:44,191 --> 00:08:45,991
Through the screen deck,
131
00:08:45,993 --> 00:08:48,894
Where the gold settles
In the sluices.
132
00:08:58,138 --> 00:09:02,207
The pearson box hasn't been used
In 15 years.
133
00:09:02,209 --> 00:09:04,676
And is locked to the ground.
134
00:09:10,017 --> 00:09:12,717
Tony's plan...
Pull it onto the trailer.
135
00:09:12,719 --> 00:09:15,620
Using the winches
On the oshkosh.
136
00:09:21,061 --> 00:09:23,828
Then take it 2 miles west,
137
00:09:23,830 --> 00:09:27,599
To where tony has an already
Stripped 10-acre cut.
138
00:09:48,555 --> 00:09:50,088
Mike It's as high as it goes.
139
00:10:01,568 --> 00:10:03,168
This is not good.
140
00:10:16,817 --> 00:10:19,651
Narrator
Tony will use the 245 excavator.
141
00:10:19,653 --> 00:10:22,821
To lift the base
Of the pearson box...
142
00:10:22,823 --> 00:10:25,023
Hold it.
143
00:10:25,025 --> 00:10:27,959
While the winches Pull the top.
144
00:10:32,566 --> 00:10:35,900
Easy.
145
00:10:48,048 --> 00:10:50,915
Holy Pull out, stop!
146
00:11:10,871 --> 00:11:14,339
Narrator Tony beets is
Attempting to resuscitate.
147
00:11:14,341 --> 00:11:16,174
A 40-year-old wash plant.
148
00:11:21,181 --> 00:11:22,914
Man Holy Pull out!
149
00:11:40,067 --> 00:11:41,566
Got it!
150
00:12:03,824 --> 00:12:08,293
Tony uses his 8-wheel,
18-ton oshkosh...
151
00:12:11,031 --> 00:12:12,664
To haul the pearson box.
152
00:12:12,666 --> 00:12:15,600
To an existing cut
Near the indian river.
153
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:32,050
Tony needs to set the box
At a precise 5.8-degree angle.
154
00:13:04,651 --> 00:13:07,318
Yeah.
155
00:13:10,991 --> 00:13:13,658
It's perfect.
156
00:13:13,660 --> 00:13:15,593
I don't think you can
Get it much better.
157
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,754
Hey, guys, I've seen terry.
158
00:13:42,756 --> 00:13:44,622
He takes a lot of leaks,
159
00:13:44,624 --> 00:13:47,725
And he really doesn't
Have any privacy about it.
160
00:13:47,727 --> 00:13:51,196
Terry, you got a copy?
161
00:13:52,666 --> 00:13:55,600
He makes sure that
Everyone sees his manhood.
162
00:13:57,537 --> 00:13:59,270
Why are we discussing This.
163
00:13:59,272 --> 00:14:00,972
Can we talk about mining?
164
00:14:04,578 --> 00:14:06,077
Narrator
Two thirds of the way through.
165
00:14:06,079 --> 00:14:10,281
His rookie mining season,
Rick ness is 300 ounces.
166
00:14:10,283 --> 00:14:15,386
From his 1,000-ounce,
$1.2-million season goal.
167
00:14:19,392 --> 00:14:20,558
I feel like everybody's got.
168
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,060
Their eyes on the prize
Out here.
169
00:14:22,062 --> 00:14:23,494
I want to do better.
170
00:14:23,496 --> 00:14:26,865
My first year in the klondike
Than parker did, todd did.
171
00:14:26,867 --> 00:14:29,000
I want to prove that
I'm better than them.
172
00:14:29,002 --> 00:14:31,736
But we've got to keep our
Foot on the gas at this point.
173
00:14:31,738 --> 00:14:34,239
There's no guarantee
We're gonna hit our goal.
174
00:14:35,842 --> 00:14:37,909
The setup we have means
175
00:14:37,911 --> 00:14:40,044
I have to just feather
An even flow of dirt.
176
00:14:40,046 --> 00:14:43,114
To the plant,
Not to overwhelm it.
177
00:14:43,116 --> 00:14:46,217
Just keep a steady pace.
178
00:14:46,219 --> 00:14:48,753
Narrator Rick's pushing his
Wash plant, durt reynolds,
179
00:14:48,755 --> 00:14:53,691
To the limit, running 160
Yards of pay dirt an hour.
180
00:14:58,732 --> 00:15:00,899
Zee
181
00:15:00,901 --> 00:15:03,368
Rick, do you got a copy?
182
00:15:03,370 --> 00:15:05,837
We got water coming over
The top at the bypass.
183
00:15:16,850 --> 00:15:19,651
The whole prewash was just full.
184
00:15:19,653 --> 00:15:21,886
I mean, every one
Of these problems
185
00:15:21,888 --> 00:15:24,055
I have to shut down for
Is costing us money.
186
00:15:24,057 --> 00:15:26,291
I'll jump in.
187
00:15:26,293 --> 00:15:28,293
Zee Problem is,
Some of the materials,
188
00:15:28,295 --> 00:15:30,061
It doesn't break apart
That well,
189
00:15:30,063 --> 00:15:32,230
And all it's doing is
Sticking to the metal.
190
00:15:32,232 --> 00:15:35,033
On the inside of the prewash and
Then just causing havoc.
191
00:15:35,035 --> 00:15:38,903
Definitely can't go the rest of
The season working like this.
192
00:15:38,905 --> 00:15:41,172
Narrator Every hour
That durt reynolds is down.
193
00:15:41,174 --> 00:15:44,943
Costs rick $1,000 in lost gold.
194
00:15:46,446 --> 00:15:47,912
Yup, that will work.
195
00:15:50,750 --> 00:15:51,849
Fire it up.
196
00:15:57,624 --> 00:15:59,924
Zee Just gets Frustrating.
197
00:15:59,926 --> 00:16:01,426
Rick This is crap!
198
00:16:09,469 --> 00:16:14,072
Sweet, you're both here.
Yeah, hey, man.
199
00:16:14,074 --> 00:16:16,574
So I've been thinking...
Feathering the dirt.
200
00:16:16,576 --> 00:16:18,710
Into this wash plant
With the loader.
201
00:16:18,712 --> 00:16:20,411
Just isn't working Anymore.
202
00:16:20,413 --> 00:16:21,913
Freddy Good. Right now, you get
Those clumps of material.
203
00:16:21,915 --> 00:16:23,281
That fall in there.
204
00:16:23,283 --> 00:16:24,716
Then you got to slow down
And wait for it to clear out.
205
00:16:24,718 --> 00:16:27,018
And the guys are climbing
Up and fishing around.
206
00:16:27,020 --> 00:16:29,487
In there And getting frustrated.
207
00:16:29,489 --> 00:16:31,289
So I had the thought
For quite a while.
208
00:16:31,291 --> 00:16:32,323
About a hopper feeder.
209
00:16:32,325 --> 00:16:34,392
That would help - yes!
210
00:16:34,394 --> 00:16:36,427
I think that's about
The last thing you can do.
211
00:16:36,429 --> 00:16:38,830
For this season to make
That more efficient.
212
00:16:38,832 --> 00:16:42,834
But the biggest thing is where
Are you gonna find one?
213
00:16:42,836 --> 00:16:44,535
I looked at a couple
Earlier this year,
214
00:16:44,537 --> 00:16:46,437
But they are just too
Expensive, you know.
215
00:16:46,439 --> 00:16:47,705
Yeah.
216
00:16:47,707 --> 00:16:49,774
But there is a guy I know.
He's over by parker's.
217
00:16:49,776 --> 00:16:52,176
And he said he'd lease me
His for 10 grand a month.
218
00:16:52,178 --> 00:16:54,979
I love your idea, rick.
Go for it.
219
00:16:54,981 --> 00:16:57,749
Thanks, buddy. Good luck, rick.
220
00:17:01,021 --> 00:17:03,821
Narrator
The pad behind durt reynolds.
221
00:17:03,823 --> 00:17:08,793
Is set up for the loader to
Feed directly into the prewash.
222
00:17:08,795 --> 00:17:12,530
Rick needs to drop it By 3 feet.
223
00:17:12,532 --> 00:17:15,700
Rick Just a little bit of dirt
Work to get it prepared,
224
00:17:15,702 --> 00:17:17,769
Dig a big section out,
Because that feeder
225
00:17:17,771 --> 00:17:22,373
I want it to sit lower, that'll
Feed right into the prewash.
226
00:17:22,375 --> 00:17:23,775
The whole idea behind
Putting this hopper feeder in.
227
00:17:23,777 --> 00:17:25,843
Is to make things more
Efficient and up the yardage.
228
00:17:25,845 --> 00:17:28,346
So we're really hoping
For at least another
229
00:17:28,348 --> 00:17:30,848
20-yard-an-hour gain
Out of this,
230
00:17:30,850 --> 00:17:35,420
Maybe around 180-200 yards
An hour would be nice.
231
00:17:49,402 --> 00:17:51,502
I hit the water line.
232
00:17:51,504 --> 00:17:54,105
Narrator
Rick has ripped a 20-inch hole.
233
00:17:54,107 --> 00:17:56,974
In the pipe that
Feeds the wash plant.
234
00:17:58,745 --> 00:18:01,946
Rick Damn it! Shut it down!
235
00:18:10,457 --> 00:18:12,356
That's what I call dumb.
236
00:18:34,013 --> 00:18:36,948
Sweet!
237
00:18:36,950 --> 00:18:40,284
Once that feeder's in place, the
Plant's gonna run more even.
238
00:18:43,456 --> 00:18:46,324
Narrator Rick ness takes
Delivery of a $10,000.
239
00:18:46,326 --> 00:18:48,126
Hopper feeder that
Could help him.
240
00:18:48,128 --> 00:18:53,498
Mine an extra $7,200
Worth of gold every week.
241
00:18:55,735 --> 00:18:58,536
Rick I really need to get up
And start mining.
242
00:18:58,538 --> 00:19:01,539
I'd imagine it's gonna take
A few more hours.
243
00:19:01,541 --> 00:19:03,141
To get it set up.
244
00:19:03,143 --> 00:19:06,010
That's not counting the
Break in the water line though.
245
00:19:06,012 --> 00:19:08,312
Narrator
But durt reynolds is shut down.
246
00:19:08,314 --> 00:19:12,783
Till they repair the
Water supply rick broke.
247
00:19:12,785 --> 00:19:15,219
Rick I'm pissed at
Myself right now that I hit it.
248
00:19:15,221 --> 00:19:18,156
Just too much of A hurry.
249
00:19:19,893 --> 00:19:24,829
Narrator Four hours later,
The machine they need arrives.
250
00:19:24,831 --> 00:19:26,597
I woke bart up...
He's my night-shift guy...
251
00:19:26,599 --> 00:19:28,332
Because I knew he
Could get in contact.
252
00:19:28,334 --> 00:19:30,501
With a guy who had
That fuser machine.
253
00:19:30,503 --> 00:19:31,743
He's a good guy to have around.
254
00:19:43,483 --> 00:19:47,185
I'm glad rick did this
And not one of us.
255
00:19:47,187 --> 00:19:50,321
Narrator First, they remove
The damaged section of the pipe.
256
00:19:56,262 --> 00:19:58,863
To fuse the pipes
Together, both ends.
257
00:19:58,865 --> 00:20:01,098
Needs to be perfectly aligned.
258
00:20:11,744 --> 00:20:14,078
Man on radio
It's not gonna work.
259
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,981
Stick the whole up.
260
00:20:16,983 --> 00:20:18,503
I thought you knew
What you were doing.
261
00:20:20,620 --> 00:20:22,340
Rick Four guys standing
Around like idiots.
262
00:20:25,692 --> 00:20:27,491
Ryan They say
The definition of madness.
263
00:20:27,493 --> 00:20:29,660
Is doing the same thing
Over and over again.
264
00:20:29,662 --> 00:20:31,929
And expecting
A different result.
265
00:20:41,808 --> 00:20:44,475
I'm just wondering if we take
That hump that we moved over,
266
00:20:44,477 --> 00:20:45,910
Put it straight,
If we'd get enough.
267
00:20:45,912 --> 00:20:48,312
Rick There should be
Plenty right there.
268
00:20:48,314 --> 00:20:50,314
Narrator
Rick attempts to align the pipe.
269
00:20:50,316 --> 00:20:52,950
By lifting it
Further up the hill.
270
00:20:58,625 --> 00:21:01,325
Whoa.
Now we're getting somewhere!
271
00:21:10,370 --> 00:21:12,637
With the water supply fixed,
272
00:21:12,639 --> 00:21:16,741
Rick can bring in his
New hopper feeder.
273
00:21:16,743 --> 00:21:20,044
You ready, rick?
274
00:21:20,046 --> 00:21:21,812
Let's give her hell. All right.
275
00:21:29,222 --> 00:21:32,290
Narrator They need to align
The 15-ton hopper feeder.
276
00:21:32,292 --> 00:21:37,194
So the conveyor sits precisely
Six inches above the prewash.
277
00:21:38,865 --> 00:21:40,865
Go that way Just a hair, rick.
278
00:21:43,970 --> 00:21:46,804
Yeah, that way, rick.
279
00:21:46,806 --> 00:21:48,306
Perfect.
280
00:21:50,843 --> 00:21:51,809
Good job, freddy.
281
00:21:51,811 --> 00:21:54,278
- First shot.
- -hey.
282
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,414
Freddy I love doing
Like this, I do.
283
00:21:56,416 --> 00:21:59,817
I love setting plants up,
Doing different...
284
00:21:59,819 --> 00:22:01,552
Well, I'm glad you
Were here for this.
285
00:22:01,554 --> 00:22:04,422
I'm glad I am here.
I'm glad to be here for this.
286
00:22:04,424 --> 00:22:07,224
Yeah, buddy.
287
00:22:07,226 --> 00:22:08,592
What do you think, guys?
288
00:22:08,594 --> 00:22:11,395
- I think it's awesome, man.
- I want to see it work.
289
00:22:18,905 --> 00:22:21,272
Yeah!
290
00:22:21,274 --> 00:22:23,941
First bucket in the feeder,
See how she works.
291
00:22:25,345 --> 00:22:26,644
Yee-haw!
292
00:22:30,350 --> 00:22:31,549
This hopper feeder is going
To streamline everything.
293
00:22:31,551 --> 00:22:33,117
It's gonna allow us to get.
294
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,220
Maximum yardage
Out of our plant.
295
00:22:36,222 --> 00:22:39,256
Rick's right.
About 180 yards an hour.
296
00:22:41,294 --> 00:22:43,160
Narrator If rick can keep
The plant running.
297
00:22:43,162 --> 00:22:46,931
At 180 yards an hour,
His new hopper feeder.
298
00:22:46,933 --> 00:22:51,736
Will net him an extra
$7,000 every week.
299
00:22:54,741 --> 00:22:58,376
- Nailed it.
- Thanks for all your help.
300
00:22:58,378 --> 00:23:01,145
One shot wonder.
Working perfect.
301
00:23:01,147 --> 00:23:02,546
We're gonna be good.
302
00:23:17,296 --> 00:23:18,396
Hell.
303
00:23:18,398 --> 00:23:20,664
Fine tailings are
Building up like crazy.
304
00:23:20,666 --> 00:23:22,032
It's just a nightmare.
305
00:23:25,171 --> 00:23:28,072
Narrator If brennan can't fix
The tailings problem.
306
00:23:28,074 --> 00:23:32,176
At big red, Parker risks losing.
307
00:23:32,178 --> 00:23:35,012
Tens of thousands of dollars.
308
00:23:35,014 --> 00:23:36,113
Parker
I don't give much slack to guys.
309
00:23:36,115 --> 00:23:37,381
That want more responsibility.
310
00:23:37,383 --> 00:23:39,216
You need to know
What comes with that.
311
00:23:39,218 --> 00:23:44,088
And that means me having pretty
Damn high expectations of them.
312
00:23:44,090 --> 00:23:45,656
Brennan As you can see,
Our fine tailings.
313
00:23:45,658 --> 00:23:46,857
Just won't stop building up.
314
00:23:46,859 --> 00:23:49,760
So my plan is to cut a hole
Through this road.
315
00:23:49,762 --> 00:23:52,763
And send a moat in
To that end of the cut.
316
00:23:54,267 --> 00:23:56,967
Narrator
The tailings pond is full.
317
00:23:56,969 --> 00:24:00,204
Brennan plans to create
An opening in the berm,
318
00:24:00,206 --> 00:24:05,576
Allowing water and fine tailings
To flow out into lower ground.
319
00:24:10,116 --> 00:24:12,883
I just hope that parker sees
That I took on a challenge.
320
00:24:12,885 --> 00:24:15,286
To get it done
And it's gonna work.
321
00:24:15,288 --> 00:24:17,955
The reason why I asked
For more responsibility.
322
00:24:17,957 --> 00:24:19,523
Is to prove that I can do it.
323
00:24:19,525 --> 00:24:21,859
This is gonna get
Us one step closer.
324
00:24:21,861 --> 00:24:24,261
To our 6,000-ounce goal
That we set.
325
00:24:30,069 --> 00:24:31,168
What the.
326
00:24:31,170 --> 00:24:32,937
Smoke coming out of the pump.
327
00:24:32,939 --> 00:24:34,238
Mitch, mitch, got a copy?
328
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,806
I think the pump's on fire, man.
329
00:24:35,808 --> 00:24:38,209
You better get Down there quick.
330
00:24:38,211 --> 00:24:40,110
Hey, shut it off!
331
00:24:47,253 --> 00:24:49,386
Let's get out of the way.
Turn the key off.
332
00:24:51,724 --> 00:24:53,057
Whoo.
333
00:24:55,695 --> 00:24:58,162
At least we caught it before
It did completely blow up.
334
00:25:04,971 --> 00:25:07,004
- Whoa.
- Yeah.
335
00:25:07,006 --> 00:25:09,940
Brennan She was just
Spitting everywhere.
336
00:25:11,944 --> 00:25:14,812
We just got to see exactly
What's causing this.
337
00:25:19,919 --> 00:25:21,352
What'd you do?
338
00:25:23,422 --> 00:25:24,522
Mitch Brennan definitely saved
The pump today.
339
00:25:24,524 --> 00:25:26,290
If it would have kept running,
340
00:25:26,292 --> 00:25:28,492
It would have burnt
To the ground.
341
00:25:28,494 --> 00:25:30,427
What happened?
342
00:25:30,429 --> 00:25:33,831
Started rolling coal,
So they shut it down.
343
00:25:33,833 --> 00:25:35,099
It was overheating.
344
00:25:35,101 --> 00:25:37,701
The exhaust stacks vibrated
And rolled over this way.
345
00:25:37,703 --> 00:25:40,471
So then it was just with
The intake being right here,
346
00:25:40,473 --> 00:25:42,406
It just sucked right back in.
347
00:25:42,408 --> 00:25:45,142
So that will definitely do it.
348
00:25:45,144 --> 00:25:48,979
Can we just light everything
On fire and walk away?
349
00:25:48,981 --> 00:25:52,783
I think it was trying
To do that on its own.
350
00:25:52,785 --> 00:25:56,020
First thing we need to do is
Get that exhaust straight up.
351
00:25:56,022 --> 00:25:57,988
Get it back Where it belongs.
352
00:26:00,126 --> 00:26:02,826
I think as long as this thing
Will fire back up, it'll run.
353
00:26:08,167 --> 00:26:10,868
That's why we love it!
354
00:26:10,870 --> 00:26:12,369
Brennan Dude.
355
00:26:12,371 --> 00:26:14,338
It's a good thing that brennan
Caught that pump when he did.
356
00:26:14,340 --> 00:26:17,241
Those are the little things
That when you catch in time,
357
00:26:17,243 --> 00:26:18,709
It's not too big of a deal.
358
00:26:18,711 --> 00:26:20,778
But if he wouldn't have
Caught that,
359
00:26:20,780 --> 00:26:23,113
It probably would have lost
A lot of time,
360
00:26:23,115 --> 00:26:24,181
A lot of gold.
361
00:26:24,183 --> 00:26:25,683
Fire it up!
362
00:26:30,723 --> 00:26:32,690
Narrator
Brennan has saved the pump.
363
00:26:32,692 --> 00:26:36,126
Now he can get back to
Opening his tailings channel.
364
00:26:38,197 --> 00:26:40,598
When I was younger, I couldn't
work under pressure.
365
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,800
For a second, I'd just
Get way too flustered.
366
00:26:42,802 --> 00:26:45,936
The older I got, the more I
Learned to work under pressure.
367
00:26:45,938 --> 00:26:47,271
And I love it because
It makes me want to.
368
00:26:47,273 --> 00:26:49,807
Go as hard as I can
And do way better.
369
00:26:55,648 --> 00:26:57,681
Whoo yeah!
370
00:27:02,021 --> 00:27:04,288
It looks like it's flowing
Pretty nice right now.
371
00:27:04,290 --> 00:27:06,090
Looks like it should work.
372
00:27:10,029 --> 00:27:12,129
Parker Brennan's had his
Struggles down here.
373
00:27:12,131 --> 00:27:14,331
But now he's dealt with
His fine tailing problems.
374
00:27:14,333 --> 00:27:15,666
And whatnot.
375
00:27:15,668 --> 00:27:18,202
He's definitely stepping up
At a time when we need it.
376
00:27:18,204 --> 00:27:20,104
And doing a good job.
377
00:27:50,403 --> 00:27:51,969
Narrator To keep his dream.
378
00:27:51,971 --> 00:27:54,138
Of a 6,000-ounce
Season goal alive,
379
00:27:54,140 --> 00:28:00,044
Tony beets is resurrecting
His 40-year-old pearson box.
380
00:28:16,962 --> 00:28:20,097
I'm looking forward to
Seeing the pearson box move.
381
00:28:20,099 --> 00:28:23,367
It's almost idiot proof, almost.
382
00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:34,344
Yep!
383
00:28:35,715 --> 00:28:36,715
Yes, we do.
384
00:28:42,154 --> 00:28:44,088
Broken clock is
Right twice a day.
385
00:28:51,764 --> 00:28:53,530
Kevin All right.
We got the water going.
386
00:28:53,532 --> 00:28:55,065
I haven't seen this thing
Run in years.
387
00:28:55,067 --> 00:28:56,067
Let's see what she does.
388
00:29:01,140 --> 00:29:03,207
Y'all ready for this?
389
00:29:08,814 --> 00:29:11,215
Narrator
For the first time in 15 years,
390
00:29:11,217 --> 00:29:16,553
The vintage pearson box is back,
Running 250 yards an hour.
391
00:29:18,457 --> 00:29:20,758
I haven't seen This thing go.
392
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,594
Since I was, like, 10 years old.
393
00:29:23,596 --> 00:29:25,195
It's kind of cool.
394
00:29:25,197 --> 00:29:26,864
Whoo!
395
00:29:30,970 --> 00:29:32,035
Kevin
I think tony is very happy.
396
00:29:32,037 --> 00:29:33,137
To have this Going finally.
397
00:29:33,139 --> 00:29:34,238
Great.
398
00:29:55,995 --> 00:29:58,996
Kevin What was that?
399
00:30:14,213 --> 00:30:16,947
About yea big and,
Like, this skinny?
400
00:30:16,949 --> 00:30:20,317
Yeah, I saw that one drop.
401
00:30:20,319 --> 00:30:24,488
Our issue is that we have
A giant hole in the hopper here.
402
00:30:27,726 --> 00:30:30,761
Well, idiot proof, yes,
Physics proof, no.
403
00:30:30,763 --> 00:30:33,063
Narrator A large rock has
Made a massive dent.
404
00:30:33,065 --> 00:30:36,733
In the rusted base
Of the old hopper.
405
00:30:45,945 --> 00:30:47,444
Yep. Yep. We'll make it happen.
406
00:30:49,882 --> 00:30:51,648
Put a new piece
Of steel in there...
407
00:31:00,860 --> 00:31:03,360
Narrator Two hours later...
408
00:31:03,362 --> 00:31:05,963
Good, that should do it.
Plate is in.
409
00:31:19,612 --> 00:31:22,613
Narrator
Between monica's wash plant,
410
00:31:22,615 --> 00:31:27,117
Dredge one, and now
The pearson box,
411
00:31:27,119 --> 00:31:32,589
Tony's running over 500
Yards of pay dirt an hour.
412
00:31:44,136 --> 00:31:46,203
You know, we kind of
Might need this box.
413
00:31:46,205 --> 00:31:47,971
We're two-thirds
Into our season.
414
00:31:53,245 --> 00:31:55,345
How many tonys
Are around though?
415
00:32:03,122 --> 00:32:06,423
Okay!
416
00:32:21,607 --> 00:32:25,475
Narrator After a hard week
For brennan at big red,
417
00:32:25,477 --> 00:32:29,112
It's time for parker schnabel
To weigh some gold.
418
00:32:32,885 --> 00:32:34,918
So, brennan, you having
Some fine tailings.
419
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,386
Problems down there?
420
00:32:36,388 --> 00:32:38,755
Well, didn't you come
And yell at me this week?
421
00:32:40,392 --> 00:32:43,160
All right, let's
Start with sluicifer.
422
00:32:43,162 --> 00:32:45,829
"S" stands for
423
00:32:49,768 --> 00:32:50,934
Mitch Here we go.

Narrator $345,000.
428
00:33:13,625 --> 00:33:15,926
- Nice job!
- Hopefully that keeps up.
429
00:33:15,928 --> 00:33:17,194
If it pays off like that,
430
00:33:17,196 --> 00:33:19,262
We'll be hitting that
6,000 ounces, easy.
431
00:33:19,264 --> 00:33:22,099
- Okay, brennan.
- Get in there.
432
00:33:22,101 --> 00:33:23,600
Narrator
To keep parker on track,
433
00:33:23,602 --> 00:33:28,939
Brennan needs to produce at
Least 70 ounces from big red.
434
00:33:28,941 --> 00:33:33,577
50, 80, 100, 120,
435
00:33:33,579 --> 00:33:37,014
Buck fifty.
436
00:33:37,016 --> 00:33:39,616
You gonna break 200?
437
00:33:41,553 --> 00:33:42,886
It's gonna be close.
438
00:33:42,888 --> 00:33:47,624
199.45.
439
00:33:47,626 --> 00:33:50,093
That's a hell of a week.
440
00:33:50,095 --> 00:33:52,696
Brennan's really been doing
Great with that little plant.
441
00:33:52,698 --> 00:33:56,533
This week, it gives us
A 487-ounce week.
442
00:33:56,535 --> 00:33:58,201
Nice.
443
00:33:58,203 --> 00:34:00,904
Narrator Worth well over
Half a million dollars.
444
00:34:02,574 --> 00:34:03,807
Parker Good job, brennan.
445
00:34:03,809 --> 00:34:05,675
Thank you for putting
In a good, hard week.
446
00:34:05,677 --> 00:34:07,010
When it comes down to it,
447
00:34:07,012 --> 00:34:09,112
You look at what we put
Our effort into.
448
00:34:09,114 --> 00:34:11,314
And we have pretty damn
Good follow-through, really.
449
00:34:11,316 --> 00:34:15,786
Like, when we go into
Something, we go hard.
450
00:34:15,788 --> 00:34:19,356
- Good job, you guys.
- Cheers!
451
00:34:19,358 --> 00:34:21,324
Let's keep that up.
All right, get out of here.
452
00:34:23,996 --> 00:34:25,595
Narrator Parker's now mined.
453
00:34:25,597 --> 00:34:30,500
Close to $4.5 million
Worth of gold.
454
00:34:30,502 --> 00:34:32,235
Brennan You know, a bit
Of a tough week with big red.
455
00:34:32,237 --> 00:34:33,670
Dealing with fine tailings.
456
00:34:33,672 --> 00:34:35,972
And having to go down
And hot seat everything,
457
00:34:35,974 --> 00:34:37,207
But those kind of numbers are.
458
00:34:37,209 --> 00:34:40,477
Gonna keep us on track
For 6,000 ounces.
459
00:34:40,479 --> 00:34:41,845
Parker Yeah, I mean that was
A good week, like,
460
00:34:41,847 --> 00:34:45,682
Definitely a lot
Of gold came in.
461
00:34:45,684 --> 00:34:46,750
If we can keep having
Weeks like that,
462
00:34:46,752 --> 00:34:48,251
We'll have a damn good season.
463
00:35:08,273 --> 00:35:10,107
Karla ann
Once this table is dialed in,
464
00:35:10,109 --> 00:35:13,176
I kind of get a chance
To walk away,
465
00:35:13,178 --> 00:35:16,012
I can go take
A two-minute break.
466
00:35:16,014 --> 00:35:17,848
So I've got everything
I need for this workout.
467
00:35:17,850 --> 00:35:19,916
I've got some scrap
Metal from over there.
468
00:35:23,322 --> 00:35:26,056
I've got some gold concentrate
Right here in my hands.
469
00:35:26,058 --> 00:35:27,724
Keep a little pressure on myself.
470
00:35:27,726 --> 00:35:29,559
And add a little bit of weight.
471
00:35:29,561 --> 00:35:32,662
Get a little, couple
Of squats in there.
472
00:35:32,664 --> 00:35:34,364
Rick alert!
473
00:35:37,236 --> 00:35:38,535
What are you doing?
474
00:35:38,537 --> 00:35:40,871
I needed to take five
To do a little workout.
475
00:35:40,873 --> 00:35:41,838
Is that my gold?
476
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,373
Yeah, I like a challenge.
477
00:35:43,375 --> 00:35:45,275
It shouldn't be a challenge.
478
00:35:45,277 --> 00:35:47,177
To keep it in the tent
Or in the safe.
479
00:35:47,179 --> 00:35:50,514
You have to trust me!
480
00:35:50,516 --> 00:35:52,048
She's out Of her damn mind.
481
00:35:56,955 --> 00:35:58,121
Stay in there!
482
00:36:18,443 --> 00:36:20,277
Narrator
For the first time this season,
483
00:36:20,279 --> 00:36:24,314
Tony's running
Three wash plants.
484
00:36:24,316 --> 00:36:27,417
Dredge one, monica's wash plant,
485
00:36:27,419 --> 00:36:31,454
And the newly restored pearson
Box could just help him catch
486
00:36:31,456 --> 00:36:35,292
Parker and hit his
6,000-ounce goal.
487
00:36:40,566 --> 00:36:42,299
Minnie Pretty good, I think.
488
00:36:44,636 --> 00:36:48,972
Monica Yep. Pearson box,
Dredge, and shaker deck.
489
00:36:48,974 --> 00:36:51,575
Okay, well let's see what
The pearson box is bringing.
490
00:36:53,512 --> 00:36:55,512
- 10...
- there we go.
491
00:36:55,514 --> 00:36:59,683
20, 30, 50 Is a bit better.
492
00:37:01,053 --> 00:37:05,021
61.94.
493
00:37:05,023 --> 00:37:07,490

495
00:37:21,073 --> 00:37:27,410
50, 65, 70, 85,
496
00:37:27,412 --> 00:37:31,648
91.14.
497
00:37:31,650 --> 00:37:34,451
$110,000.
498
00:37:43,362 --> 00:37:45,128
To stay on track,
499
00:37:45,130 --> 00:37:50,500
Monica's wash plant needs to
Deliver 293 ounces of gold.
500
00:37:52,938 --> 00:37:56,806
100, 160, 190...
501
00:37:56,808 --> 00:38:00,744
210, 220, 230...
502
00:38:03,749 --> 00:38:07,117
231.26.
503
00:38:07,119 --> 00:38:10,453
A hefty $280,000.
504
00:38:10,455 --> 00:38:14,157
But still 60 ounces short
Of what they needed.
505
00:38:16,928 --> 00:38:18,295
Mike Hey, kevin,
On the bright side,
506
00:38:18,297 --> 00:38:22,265
At least you didn't triple
Your number.
507
00:38:22,267 --> 00:38:24,668
One for both y'all.
508
00:38:24,670 --> 00:38:29,339
So, right now, our total is
At 2,814 ounces and a bit,
509
00:38:29,341 --> 00:38:33,310
So we're getting
Closer to halfway.
510
00:38:34,413 --> 00:38:36,980
Narrator But two-thirds of
The way through the season,
511
00:38:36,982 --> 00:38:40,417
They should have 4,000 ounces.
512
00:39:13,385 --> 00:39:14,784
Narrator At quartz creek,
513
00:39:14,786 --> 00:39:17,721
Rick ness and his
Mom's dog, ruby...
514
00:39:17,723 --> 00:39:20,523
Rick You finding gold? Is
That where the gold is?
