Right. Copy there, Chloe?Yes, copy.

One bull and one steer here,
I'll give you.

I'll bring them up to you.

(INDISTINCT)

Our big boy's doing a run. I'll see
if I can turn him back toward you.

Hard left now,
you'll avoid them rocks.

Nice work. I'll leave you with him.

Aerial mustering is one of the most
dangerous job in the world.

So I'm always a little stressed
watching Justin do what he does.

But I do keep in mind
this is our bread and butter

and, erm, that's how we get to go...

Go prospecting.

Hi, come in there, Chloe.Hey, baby.

You're all done here. Just lock
these cattle up and, er...

Do you wanna grab them couple
of detectors?

I found a couple
of really cool spots.

Probably worth a look
before it gets dark.

I am all ready to go.
Our gear's ready.

I'm ready. Just waiting for you.

Sweet. All right.
I'll come pick you up.

Sounds good. You know,
I've been thinking

we should really
go hunting full time.

Wouldn't that be
living the dream, right?

Right. Let's go!

Get into it, eh?

I was coming past that set
of ranges there earlier

and saw this bit of quartzy...
(INDISTINCT)

It could be pretty good.Yeah?

Yeah, looks all right. There's
a spot there where it blows out.

Mixes with that ironstone.Yeah.

And that creek runs through
the middle of it, breaks it up.

So might be worth a look
with the detectors.Ooo.

Could be some gold.
Only one way to find out.

I don't wanna waste too much time.

I just wanna have a quick look.

It actually looks
better on the ground

than it did from the sky, so...
Yeah.

Let's just spend an hour.

If it's no good, we'll go
and check the other spot.

Sounds good. Let's go.All right.
See you in an hour.Bye.

Being a mustering pilot is, er,

considered one
of the most dangerous jobs.

Things do go wrong quite often.
You know, we've all lost...

Lost some good mates
to helicopter crashes.

But, er, it just affords me access
to all these remote locations,
you know.

So after work, we can get out here
and find a bit of gold.

Yeah, the dream is to really
continue prospecting,

eventually get a mining lease
and, er...

make a good living off chasing gold.

I'm sure you all have heard it.
I'm French.

Justin joke with me that if I was
to be lost in the outback,

I wouldn't make it a day,
which I fully agree. (LAUGHS)

I picked Australia because it was

on the other side of the world.

At that time it was 2007.

No one in France was really
going to Australia.

And I just thought
that would be, like,

the experience of a lifetime,
you know?

Initially my mom, she said, "No.

"Not Australia. It's way too far."

And little did she know
I was not coming back, so...

NARRATOR: After relocating
to Western Australia,

Chloe Boissier
joined the police force,

then met Justin Borg online

when she responded
to an ad to buy his Jeep.

The Jeep was in Carnarvon
and I was in Perth.

So that's a 10-hour drive.

We pretty much spoke
for five hours on video call

and he asked me to come
and I did and...

The rest is history.
We've been together ever since.

Obviously, I would love
to be doing this full time, so...

I'm going for my,
er, travel licence.

So Justin and I can do
a lot more gold prospecting.

But to do your travel licence,
it's really expensive.

I still need about 30 grand.

That's why I'm here,
that's why I need the gold.

We just keep looking
until we find it.

We need to $30,000.

For me, it's just about the hunt.
It's about knowing there's gold
in the ground,

and I wanna be the one
to bring it out.

I like the fact that it's
a challenge to actually
go and get it.

(BEEPING)Hoo!

Getting really good target there
under that shrub, so...

we'll dig it and see what it is.

I can see it there, look.

Just a bloody old rifle cartridge.

Copy there, Chloe.Hey, bub.

Let's get it out of here. Let's go
and check the other spot.

I'll see you At the chopper, eh?
All right, be there in a Minute.

How'd you get on?(SIGHS) Nothing.

Let's get out of here.
I'm losing my mojo.

I thought it would be really good,
but anyway...

What the hell's going on here?

I've got nothing.What?

(LOW BUZZING)

Are you serious?

I've got power to my gauges.

Battery's dead.

Oh, my God.

Where at least 50Ks from help.
So it's a long walk

if we can't get this thing started.

(WHIRRING)

Erm, a little bit stressed out.
There's a lot to do here.

Moving Lloyd
is gonna cost us $80,000,

and that's a huge dent
to the start of our season.

Yeah. So we're in a mad rush
to get everything packed down

before the cranes
and trucks get here

or else that's more money
we're spending on them
just sitting around, so...

Yeah, I'll be glad
when this is all done.

Lloyd's held together with
absolutely thousands

and thousands of bolts.
Don't need to do them all

but the vital ones to take
each section.

Crane's due in three days,

so we're under
a bit of a time crunch.

After the successful test leach,

er, we're running Lloyd nonstop
to get this 5,000-tonne dirt

ready to go for the biggest
heap leach in our careers.

The concentrators in the sluice
will collect roughly around 70%
of the gold.

Now it's up to the bulk leach
to collect the rest.

What I'm trying to do at the moment,
is build the walls with this dirt.

I've also then gotta focus on
getting the the floor on a slight,

gradual dip, down into one corner.

Er, that's where
I'll be drawing the fluid from.

Get all that gold
turn into a liquid form

and pump that through
the carbon columns.

It's basically the final chapter now
of the Phoenix Project.

Erm, it's been great to have been
out here for a while now,

but all good things come to an end

and we really need all hands on deck
out at the Fair Lady Project

to get that project up and running.

NARRATOR: After finding big gold
at their Fair Lady lease...

110 ounces!

..Mel Wood and Alex Stead
were ready to call time

on partner, Paul Mackey's operation,
the Phoenix Project.

And my thought was sell it and move.

I'm just not ready to pack up
and abandon this place.

I know there's still gold here.

But with his modified
heap leach method,

using chemicals to extract
microscopic gold,

Paul proved there was still money
to be made at the Phoenix project.

It's 11.5 ounces.Yes! (LAUGHING)

Let's just do one big leach
and finish this project properly.

Smash it and move on.

While Mel and Alex disassemble

the million dollar
crushing plant, Lloyd,

for the move to Fair Lady...

Gotta be really careful. This is
an expensive piece of machinery.

..Paul is left to build
a new heap leach

to extract whatever gold remains

in their 5,000 tonnes of tailings.

Normally, building
something of this size

you have a couple of blokes
on different machines.

You have all hands on deck,

but at the moment
it's only three of us here

and basically left up to me
to get the leach operational.

I gotta get these walls
as high as I can.

Er, riding this little bobcat's
gonna take me days.

It's like trying to move
a tonne of dirt with a teaspoon.

I have to call in a favour.

Got a mate down the road
who's got a big loader.

I don't think he's using
it at the moment.

If we get that out here, I'll be
able to smash through the tonnes

get a hell of a lot quicker.

Fingers crossed, he can help me out.

Ideally you'd wanna lift this off.
But with nothing here to lift it,

we're gonna have to cut it
and yank it over

and hopefully we don't bend it.

It's not easy, cutting up something
that you've built.

But we've gotta do this
to have any chance of moving it.

The thing's a big bit of kit,

where it takes a crane
and two trucks to move.

Well, that's all chopped off now.

So my plan, is to attach a chain
and we just pull it.

We've got nothing can lift it, so...
Just pull it off?

Yep, that's...Alex, it's $20,000.

Yeah, I know what it costs.
We're not ripping that off

and just hoping
it lands on the ground

and doesn't have much damage.
It's steel. We can repair it.

If the crane gets here
and lifts every single piece,

it's gonna be days for the crane.
We're gonna spend more than 20 grand

while the crane lifts
all the pieces.

OK. Let's just hope
there's not too much damage.

I don't wanna do it,
but what choice do we have?

I'll just get it done. A good pull,
it will land on the sand.

OK.Have faith.(EXHALES)

Yeah, I'm feeling pretty nervous
about this.

If that hopper lands
on the hard ground

on either side of that soft sand,

that's gonna cost us a lot of money.

It's either gonna work, or it's not.
(SIGHS) Oh, God.

(CHUCKLES) Probably not.

All right. It's not the way
I want to do this,

but the time pressures
we're under...

Here goes.

Ugh, it doesn't look right.

Gosh, I'm feeling so nervous.

It's like my stomach's churning.
Can't even look.

Here it comes.

So, packing up, cos I lost my job

and a part of working for the Shire,

erm, you get a house
because it's so remote down here.

And, erm, yeah,
being fired from the job

means losing the house.

I've been working our gold leases
for the last couple of years.

Er, Kat's always had that regular,
reliable pay check coming in.

It's gonna be a bit of an adjustment

going to sporadic payments
with the gold.

That pay check has helped us out
a lot over the years.

We've got a little bit of savings
up our sleeves,

but if we have a breakdown, if...

you know, we don't find gold
for a week,

like, we still up bills coming
and it's...

We... I don't know how
we're gonna do it.

(GROANS)

Breakable.

I said breakable!

OK.No worries.

Are you looking forward
to seeing your new house?

Not really. No.All right.
I like my old house.

The northern gold fields
of Western Australia

stretch from Sandstone in the west

to the Northern Territory
in the east.

Deep in the heart
of the Great Victoria Desert.

It's an area twice the size
of the United Kingdom,

peppered with gold towns
and ghost towns

like Kookynie and Gwalia.

Which Brett and Kat
will now call home.

So I've done a deal with the bloke
that owns this house.

And we can stay in it
if we fix it up at our own expense.

This can't be it.This is it.

Welcome to your new home, baby.

(THUD)(LAUGHS)

Wow.

It is a bit of a work in progress,

but we've got a bedroom here.

There's holes in the floor.

And the wall.And the wall.
Look at the wall.

Yeah. No, should be all right.
Little bit of paint.

Lounge room.

Bathroom. Semi-renovated.

Where's the bath?There is no bath.

You can learn to stand up
and shower like a big girl.

Kitchen.The wall is coming apart.

I had to take that down
to do the plumbing.

I'll put it back.Oh, God.

She'll be all right.

Toilet.Yeah,
I was looking for that.

Outside. Outside.

Look at that. Sit down toilet.

Look at that.
Fresh as Michael Jackson now.

(LAUGHS)

This is what we got here.

Bloody hell.You know...

We can fix the place up,
but to pay for it all
we gotta go get some gold.

Yup. That's gonna be tough.

Brett and Kat's first date
eight years ago

was a detecting trip to the Bush.

Now prospecting will be there
full time occupation

and the pair's
only source of income.

So your first official day out here
as a full timer.

I know right?

No more second income coming in.

No. But it is reward for effort
with gold.

So, the more effort you put in,
the more gold, we'll get out.

I've got a bit of confidence.

40km away from their new home
in Gwalia,

is the 30 hectare Dead Horse lease.

Which up until now, has provided
Brett with a modest income.

So we've got the little pump here.
Little firefighter.

Recycles the water

and goes straight into the, er...

The trommel and sluice.

Brett's been doing this by himself

for about three and a half years.

And I've been going
out on the weekends.

Manual labour...
It's not my strong point.

But we need to make it work.

Grab a shovel, dear.

You want me to shovel?Yeah.

Welcome to the real world. (LAUGHS)

Today, we're doing
a one-tonne test sample.

We're gonna run through
Dirty Gertie, our little trommel.

If it's over a gram to the tonne,

then it's worth trucking in with
the little trucking processor.

If it's not, then that spot
gets crossed off the list.

Brett and Kat's wash plant,
dubbed Dirty Gertie,

is capable of processing
up to 4 tonnes of dirt an hour.

A trommel washes away clay
and separates larger material,

with the remaining gold
being captured in its riffles.

Runoff water settles in the ponds
to be reused.

All right, Kat,
let's see what we got.

It's daunting,
to be honest with you, like...

who knows what's
gonna be in there, so...

Could be a lot, could be nothing.

OK. (GROANS)

We're hoping for about a gram
out of this.

Otherwise we've gotta hunt
for new ground.

We put it in the pan, gold's heavy,

so it goes for the bottom.

Yeah.Give it a bit of a shake

and we see how we went.

Crapping myself. (CHUCKLES)
There's still bills coming in.

Can't live off nothing.

(SIGHS) This is pot luck,
feels like, at the moment.

This sucks big time.

We've got power.

(GROANS) Oh, come on.
Still no good.

Oh, my God.

Erm, I've got a SPOT tracker
on board

which is our emergency beacon.
We can call for help, OK?

Oh, babe. We're usually
the rescuers, not the rescuees.

Yeah, but to call out
will cost us a fortune.

We're not that desperate just yet.

What if we just
pull that battery out?

And maybe light a fire
and heat it up

and try and get some charge into it?
Would that help?

I reckon it will. Get a bit of wood,
we'll light a fire.

Justin's trying to stay calm,
so I don't get all panicked.

But I'm panicking.

Well, this battery's flat.

Could be something wrong
with the alternator, who knows.

If we just get enough heat
into the battery

to stimulate the acid and get
the cells working again

and we might be able to get
one start out of it

and then will get us out of here.

At the moment,
it's sort of up the creek a bit.

Here.So we light two fires and then
when the flames die down a bit,

we'll just sit that battery on there
and it can get heat from both sides.

All right, this is gonna
take a couple of hours, so...

You wanna grab a wand
and go prospect and take
your mind off it...

Yes. (SIGHS)

You gonna join?
Yeah, I'll come down.

Just wait for this to get down
to coals and I'll set that battery.
Yeah.

Justin's got a good way of hiding
how worried he can be.

But he's got confidence.
He's gonna sort things out.

So, I trust him.

I've always trusted him
and it's always worked out,

so why not today?

Grab this battery and start
the heating process.

It had enough charge
to get us out here,

so I'm hoping
it's just a drop cell or something.

Cross our fingers. All right.

Go for prospecting.
Make the most of this.

My experience as a police officer,

I just know how quickly
things can turn really bad.

I can't believe
we're in that situation, though.

Talk about unlucky.

(BEEPING)Oh, my God.
I'm not feeling great,

but if this is what I think it is,

maybe I can feel a little better.

Ah, and it's out.

If this is metal,
I'm probably going to cry.

Where are you?

(BEEPING)It's here.

What the...? Oh, my God.

Oh, my God! I just found gold!

Gotta tell Justin. Baby, baby, baby!

I found gold.Oh, really?

It's massive.That's awesome.

It makes our whole battery thing
so much nicer.

I just want to cry of happiness.

We got nothing here
to lift this off,

so we have to yank it over
and hopefully don't bend it.

You're crazy, Alex. Crazy.

It will land on the sand.
What's the worst that could happen?

I don't even wanna look.Here goes.

Oh, yes! (LAUGHS)

Piece of cake.

Wow! Doesn't look like there's
any damage at all.

Good job.(LAUGHS)
Sorry I doubted you.

I won't doubt you again.(LAUGHS)

(WHISPERS) I will probably
doubt him again.

Yeah, I've had some luck. So a mate
of mine contacted yesterday,

allowed me the use of his loader.

Well, here she is.
Good looking machine.

We can actually move all this dirt
a hell of a lot quicker now.
You beauty.

The 50-tonne, 600hp loader,

can move eight tonnes of dirt
in every bucket.

11 times the volume
of the mini loader.

Yeah. It's not gonna take much time
to get this thing built at all.

It's all about having the right tool
for the job and this is definitely
the right one.

The size of the leach I'm trying
to build at the moment...

Yeah, a lot of things can go wrong.

It is a chemical process, you're
gonna have one or two elements

in the dirt that doesn't like
the reaction going on

and it'll just block your carbon up
straight away, so...

It's definitely worth it.
You're talking about $500,000 reward

for a $100,000 expense.

Big risk, big reward.
It's just the way it is.

The leaching process works
by pumping cyanide solution

through gold bearing dirt.

The cyanide binds to gold particles,

before it's pumped through columns
of black carbon

that catch the gold.

The cycle is repeated until
all the gold is trapped
in the carbon.

By chaining together
existing leach ponds,

Paul has created
a massive leaching circuit

capable of processing
5,000 tonnes of tailings.

It all comes down to this.

Final chapter
at the Phoenix project.

Flip the switch, open the valve,
circulate cyanide solution,

through carbon column
and capture all that goodness.

Show me the money.

I've been looking on maps
and I can see

that there's some good ground here,
about 5km in.

So I've got all my supplies,
I've got plenty of water

cos it's pretty hot today.
And I'm ready to venture in

and deep into some scrubland.

Gold follows gravity
and bedrock acts

like an actual sluice
that traps the gold in it.

Sometimes to get the gold,
you've gotta do things
others aren't prepared to do.

And you know, I'm prepared to go
deep into the outback to find it.

(SIGHS) God, this looks incredible.

I'm gonna head down there
and start detecting.

(BEEPING)

(BEEPS LOUD)Wow. Hear that?

(LOUD BEEPING)

This has got that ding on the end
of it, so I'm gonna dig this up.

That's out.

(BEEPS)

There... Oh, my God.

This is really heavy.

Oh, my God. That's incredible.
Look at that.

So I reckon, this is just over
half an ounce.

God. When you find this,
it kind of just peps you up a bit.

I mean, I reckon this would
be probably about $1,800?

Awesome find.

We're hoping for about a gram
out of this.

Otherwise we've gotta hunt
for new ground.

Oh. Ooh! Holy Christ!

Oh, my God! Oh, look at that.

(LAUGHING) I think there's gonna
be more than a gram in there.

That's gotta be, like, four or five
Four or five grand.
Four or five grand.

(LAUGHS)That is awesome.

That is awesome.

I think we're onto it and that's
the dirt that we'll process.

Yeah!Yeah.Absolutely.

So it's gonna be a hard day
it's gonna be rough on you.

If we're gonna get gold like this,
I'm up for it.

All right.
We'll get some gold, baby.

Running the tractor, should be able
to do at least 20 tonnes today.

Kat'll be pretty tired after that.
She'll sleep well tonight.

(ENGINE SPUTTERING)I have not
really seen this thing running.

I'm the only one that can start it.

Right.

(EXCLAIMS)(ENGINE WHIRRING)

(LAUGHS)

Everything's happening.
We can start pumping in that gold

through the Gertie,
so pretty excited.

A lot easier than pumping it
through by hand, that's for sure.

(SPUTTERS)

Yeah, that's not good.
It should be moving by now.

What's going on?We got no clutch.

Got no clutch?No clutch.

Nothing.Do you need a clutch?
Yeah. You need a clutch

if you wanna avoid...
(METAL SCRAPING)

Does that mean
we can't push any dirt?Yep.

Are you serious?Ohh, yeah.

If I was telling jokes,
it'd be funnier.

But we just got it started.
Welcome to my world.

We're gonna be waiting three weeks
cos it's an old girl.

They don't keep stuff like this
in stock. You gotta order it.

Bloody hell. So the whole day's
ruined now,

and we might as well...
No, no, no, no...

If we go home now,
we make nothing for the day

and the day is a complete loss.
Yeah.

This is my world, dear.
This is what you're in for.

Tough times don't last.
Tough people do.

Yeah.

Baby, baby, baby! I found gold!

Oh, my God, I'm trembling.

Well, keep going, babe.

Sometimes bad luck pays a little.

All happens for a reason.

One in Chloe's little jar.

Oh, it makes it so worth it.

Thank you, God!

The Heli Hunters, Justin and Chloe,
are detecting

in an extremely remote part
of the Gascoyne region,

hoping that a bush fix will charge
their helicopters flat battery.

I'm a little bit concerned
about the battery,

but we got a couple of hours.
We might as well be down here

finding gold and gotta make
the best of a bad situation.

She'll be right.

(BEEPING)That sounds, like metal.

But at this stage I'm...

I'm digging everything.

We only have a little bit of time.

It's out so...

Oh, God. Found a couple
of bits already,

I just have to come back
with more than him.

(BEEPING)Oh! It's in my hand.

It can't be true.

(LAUGHS)

This is enormous.

(SPEAKING OTHER LANGUAGE)

Biggest nugget I've ever found.

I am so not gonna tell Justin about
this. I think he's gonna faint.

I'm sure there was a signal there.

That was a good signal too.
(LOUD BEEPING)Whoa, that's gold!

That is gold!

(LAUGHS) Yeah.
That's a smaller bit, but far out.
That's a beautiful piece.

Beautiful. All right, Chloe,
I'm coming to you, bub.

I'll meet you at the chopper in 15.

I actually can't believe
we found gold.

(LAUGHS) I know. All we needed was
just a couple more hours far out.

I'm really happy
that whole battery thing happened.

Yeah, well, now we just gotta
make sure it will get us home.

Chuck it in and find out.Yeah.

It feels pretty good. Feels warm.

Hopefully, it's gonna have enough
charge just to get us started.

And once we're started, we're away.
Fingers crossed.

It's our last shot.

All right.

(GASPS)

(SIGHS)(SPUTTERING)

Come on, baby.Come on.
Give us some juice.

(WHIRRING)(EXCLAIMS)

You're good! (LAUGHS)All right!

Oh, God.

I can't wait to actually
start counting the nuggets.

Well, pretty much the final stage.

Pulling apart
the gold recovery section.

When you're doing mill cleanups,
often gold gets spilt

out the concentrators
and this whole area

it's a good place
to just find mist gold.

Which, if you don't scrape it up
now, it's gonna be lost forever.

Quick pan will tell us
if there's anything there.

Oh. Oh, that looks like it's gold.

There's a bit in there.

Wow, there's actually
quite a bit in there.

Pretty damn good.

Hey, Paul, come check this out!

I can see that from here.
Where'd that come from?

That came from the sluice run
behind the concentrators.

So, it's been catching a little bit
all the time we've been running

Yeah, we knew it was
gonna get something,

but I wasn't expected one pan
to look like that.

Might be a lot more in there.
Could be a good payday.

I'll get a bucket, we'll bog it out.
It's more fun than
tearing that plant.

(LOUD BEEPING)All right.

That sounds all right. Could be
a bit of tin, though.
It's quite loud.

But I'll check it out anyway.

(BEEP)

Still there.

(BEEP)There she is.

There you go. Another one.

You know, it's been a long day,
but I'm coming up with the goods.

Probably just over a gram. Overall,
it's been a really good day.

Yeah, now I can walk back
and go and see the boys.

This isn't what we planned
for the day.

We were hoping
to be running some dirt,

but nothing's ever smooth out here.

Nothing ever goes to plan.

So we've resorted to...
I'm going to dig... (INDISTINCT)

Cos you just can't sit around
and do nothing.

What's on top has been
detected a million times.

So if you take the top layer
of dirt off,

it's basically virgin soil.

Really, first time
as a full time prospector.

A little bit more pressure.
I need to ace this to keep us fed,

keep the lights on.

Yeah, this is definitely
a bit of a test.

Kat hasn't done a lot of detecting

but she can hear stuff that I can't.

So I've gotta take me hat off.

Oh, I really hope today's
not a complete waste.

Because I had that...
(BEEPING)Whoa!

Ohh, that sounds nice. Hey, my love.

Yeah?Come listen to this.

(BLEEPING)Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dig it up.

Can't help me?No, you can do it.

Full timer. Full timer.(CHUCKLES)

Dig it up, find it.
Rattle your dags.

Super excited.

Did you pinpoint it?Yeah.

It was somewhere
in this vicinity.(LAUGHS)

You've lost it. You lost a nugget.

Stop haunting me.Yeah, what?
You want me to shut my eyes?

(GASPS) Oh, no! Found it.

You found it?I found it.

You're gonna wanna come
and have a look at this.

See it, can you?
Yeah. Check this out.

It's a bloody ripper.

Yeah. It's not bad.

Not bad?Not bad at all.

She's huge!2g I reckon.

That hasn't travelled much. I think
we're pretty close to the source.

No way to tell where it starts
and stops, so I'll have
a scratch here

and I'll send you up around there

and we'll see if we can get
another couple.

Finding the gold really means
the world to me at the moment

because it means that I'm able
to get my bed

that I want, or my lounge
that I want, you know.

Is it a necessity to be comfy
over night time? I think so.

Especially when you're out here
working your butt off.

(BEEPING)Got a bit of a signal.

I'm digging for China with this one.

I think she's out.

I'll be so disappointed if this is
a bit of scrap.

(BEEPING)

Ah!

Come on. Please, be a bit of gold.
Please, be a bit of gold.

Ahh! Holy doley. (LAUGHS)

That's just made my day.

That's half a bed right there.

That might even be the whole bed.

It's tough. I'm knackered.

But I'm glad I didn't give up
and didn't just go,

"Oh, I'll just go
and get another job."

This... This has put it, like,
a little extreme for me.

It gives me hope that I can do it.

We've got this. We've got this.

Brett is gonna be so proud
when I show him what I've got.

Well that was pretty good.So good.

I was stressing to hell
about that battery, to be honest.

But you didn't show.
What do you say, Chloe,

we set a target of 10 ounces
this season?

That'd be enough to pay
for your flying lessons.

Fantastic. But I just
wanna see the numbers.

I'm so excited to show you
what I have got.

I reckon, I'm gonna pip you.

(CHUCKLES) We'll see. Go on.

We've got 0.5 ounces. Over half now.

All right. Close your eyes.
Cos my jar is transparent.

You can open your eyes.

That's...Wow, that's not too bad.

0.3 of an ounce?

Not too bad. I've probably
just doubled you.

But, you know...
You're feeling so good, huh?

Yeah. You done well.
That's really good.

Well, I lied. (LAUGHS)

What do you mean?
I found one more little thing.

(LAUGHS) What the hell?

Have a look at that.

I can't believe you kept it from me.

Who is a big winner?

Well done. That takes us
to 1.3 ounces.

That is awesome.
Have a look at that.

That's with a flat battery.We're
on our way to getting you flying.

Definitely.
Only one thing left to do, babe.

Get a cold beer.Go celebrate.
All right, let's do it.

What are you doing? This one's mine.

Aren't we sharing?
(LAUGHS) Aren't we sharing?

(INDISTINCT)

Home sweet home.Yeah.

What a week.Yeah. Yeah.

How do you reckon it went this week?

Look, I didn't die.You didn't die.
(LAUGHS)So...

I'm pretty happy about that.
That's a positive.

Yeah, it's still the beginning,
but I think you did very well.

You persevered
the rest of it will come.

Well before we weigh up, what do
you reckon our target should be
for the season?

I think the target should be
100 ounces.100 ounces?

I'm thinking probably,
about, like, 30.

30, and we haven't covered
our costs.

I reckon 40 ounces.No 40 ounces.

42?No. 50.42.50.

Come on.How about,
if we get to 50 ounces,

I'll get you the claw foot

iron bath that you've always wanted.
Ooh...

Oh, now we're talking.
Yeah.I'm up for that.

All right. Agreed?I've wanted
one of them for years. Yes!

Claw foot bath.Come on.
Weigh up. See how we did.

All right, so this
is all we got off the sluice.

Before... Before the break down.

I was guessing about five.

What's that in ounces? Point...
0.1?Point...

Just weight it.Just weight it.

There's a lot more pickers than
I thought was gonna be
in the sluice.

What's that? 0.17.Yeah.

That's really good dirt.
That's really good.

That's awesome.Yeah.
Let's see what you got.

Little bit of scratching detecting.
Yeah.There we go.

Ohh, look at that.We're up to 0.3.

That's awesome, my love.
I didn't realise you had so much.

Not bad for during a breakdown.
Yeah.

I had a bit of fun up there
in those hills detecting.

Yeah.Let's see what I got.

0.75.That's awesome.

We didn't do too bad.
I'm pretty impressed with that.

Considering we had
the tractor breakdown.

The tractor breakdown...
Moving the house and everything...

That's a good start.That's an
encouraging start. All right.

Put it in the safe.Do you reckon
with that we can get a nice new bed?

Enough for me, you and Agnes.
Eh, Agnes?

(AGNES BARKS)

I'll think on it.You'll think
on it. (LAUGHS)I'll think on it.

That's Lloyd all packed up.

Cut into bits,
just waiting for the cranes.

Hey, guys.Hello.Here you go.

How'd you go with Lloyd?
I think it's ready for the trucks.

Let's get it out of here.And
the leach is circulating so...
Oh, good.

Well, what have we got then?
Anything to show for our efforts.

Yeah, we do.
That's what we're here for.

There you go.
Well, that's pretty decent.

Wow.Look at that.
It's an ounce. Good job.

That's a good chunk.
What else have you got?

Few little ones.
The baby ones to go with it.

Yep. I did have to walk
about 5Ks to get that, but...

pretty good.That's not bad
for not running the plant,

but, you know what? I've got
something else to add to that.

Hold your hand out.
Whoa!There's no bad.(LAUGHS)

Where did you get that from?
Basically, every single time

we've been doing a cleanup,
there's been a bit of gold

spilling out the concentrators.
Yeah.So clean that dirt,

pound it off and that's what we got.

That's the result?
Yeah, pretty good.
Wow, that's amazing.

Work it on the scale.
I wanna know what it is.Yeah.

5 ounces.(CHUCKLES)
3.8. That's not a bad week.

That's good. That's 15 grand
for the week,

and we didn't even
operate the plant.

I mean, I can't ask more than that
really. It's a good week after all.

Off to Fair Lady.All right.
Cheers to that.Cheers.
