1
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:11,720
I'm actually so glad
to be back in Murchison
because I do love this area.
2
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:15,080
I love the country here.It's just
got a bit of everything, you know.
3
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,720
We got so many
of these creek lines
that cut through the countryside.
4
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:22,880
Yeah.We've got ironstone,
granite, quartz, everything
5
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,840
that has the potential
to provide good gold.
6
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,720
So we're gonna be camping,
do a little overnight-er.
7
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:30,720
Yeah, that's the surprise.
8
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,240
Yes, this is going to be
a great couple of days.
9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,760
Yeah, all we got to do now
is find the spot.
(LAUGHING) Yes.
10
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:41,480
(BEEPING)
11
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,320
What is going on? Whoa.
(BEEPING)Oh, God! What?
12
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:52,280
Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!
Helicopter Hotel-Echo-Delta...
13
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,600
Oh la la, it's quick.Hold on!
14
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,400
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
(SCREAMING)
15
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,360
Oh la la, it's quick.
Mayday. Mayday.
16
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,040
Hold on, hold on.
17
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,080
Oh la la. (EXCLAIMS IN FRENCH)
18
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,160
Oh!
19
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,040
(GASPS)
20
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,920
Oh!(EXCLAIMS IN FRENCH)
21
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:33,280
All stations, all stations,
helicopter Hotel-Echo-Delta
cancels previous distress.
22
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,680
We're on the ground, safe.
23
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,000
Are you all good?Baby,
I just need to get out for a minute.
24
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,720
Yeah?Get me out of this chopper.
I just want to touch the ground.
25
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,520
You all right?Gosh!
26
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,200
We were coming to the ground
so quickly, I actually thought,
27
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,920
"That's going to be it.
We're going to die." Well, yes.
28
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,920
Yeah, well, we're on the ground safe
now and know exactly what happened.
29
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,360
It's just the governor in there
just rolled the throttle off on us.
30
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,880
It's like the cruise control
in your car, you know.
31
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,360
If your cruise control cuts out,
you can all of a sudden slow down.
32
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,480
Yeah.It slows down too much,
33
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,760
we'll fall out of the sky
like a rock.
Like we did, pretty much.
34
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,320
But when you actually learn that
at flight school, you have no idea
35
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,480
how it actually feels like.
Yeah.I'm still literally...
36
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,040
My heart is popping out of my chest.
37
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,520
We'll just take a minute.
We'll have a breather and...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
38
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,680
All right.By no means
is it our week over.
39
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,520
We still need to find that spot.
That's what we're here for.
40
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,840
We come for the gold.
Are you sure, like, that...?
41
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:39,280
I mean, it's not going to
happen again? Or it could?
42
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,160
It'll be fine.
I can fly it without the governor,
43
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,800
so I can just maintain
that throttle control manually.
44
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,880
All right.So it's fine.
It's safe as nails.
45
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,080
I'm going to be learning
just watching you, I guess,
46
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,240
doing it manually.
Welcome to flight school.
47
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,880
NARRATOR:
The Heli Hunters, Justin Borg
and French-born Chloe Boissier,
48
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:03,560
are all too familiar
with the dangers of flying choppers.
49
00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:07,160
That was a big hit, losing
that helicopter last week. Just...
50
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,840
Man, what a kick in the guts.
51
00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:12,840
You know, like...It's heavy
on my mind because obviously
52
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:17,240
that's the chopper I was gonna
learn to fly with.
53
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,280
And we're a bit behind on the gold.
54
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,440
Got to hope that
this insurance money comes through
so that we can replace it for you.
55
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,160
Last time...
56
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,320
Chloe, we gotta go. One of the guys
has crashed a helicopter.
57
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,000
..a pilot from Justin's team
had a close call,
58
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,600
writing off one of
the company's three choppers.
59
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,440
For them not to be killed
in something like this is...
It's just sheer luck.
60
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,600
The terrible news
cut their trip short,
61
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,120
and it showed at their weighing.
62
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,240
0.844 ounces.
63
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,880
Now they're chasing a new lead
64
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,160
in the Murchison region
of Western Australia.
65
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,280
So, what did you actually see
that got you super excited?
66
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,960
Well, it's a creek that cuts through
a hill and then intercepts
the course.
67
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,960
And I'm thinking that if
we can check in the creek for gold,
68
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,160
it might have eroded out of that,
could be well worth the look.
69
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,640
But we've just
got to fly this ridge.
70
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,920
See if we can find it
here somewhere.
71
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,400
I'm so excited, baby.
We really need that gold.
72
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,000
Yeah, I know.
We've had a hell of a run.
73
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,200
That's the spot right there.
74
00:04:19,280 --> 00:04:22,040
That's it.That's it?
Looks pretty good, doesn't it?
75
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,840
Right-oh, babe. Let's get into it
before gets dark, eh?
76
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,600
Split up.
77
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,160
We can cover more ground.
Sounds good to me.
78
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,280
Yeah, you know, last week
losing that helicopter
was a bit of a blow.
79
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,040
It put us behind our target
for the season.
80
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,120
So, you know, it was
a small gold find.
81
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,400
It was a helicopter loss,
and now we just really need
82
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,080
to make up for it and get some
decent gold in this trip.
83
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,760
We really need to make
that ten ounces up really soon.
84
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:05,040
(DETECTOR WARBLING SHARPLY)
85
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,280
That's a good target right there.
86
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,080
All right, dig this sucker.
87
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:13,000
This could be a really good
piece of gold, actually.
88
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:22,280
All right, we're out of there.
89
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,520
We are so remote
that this has to be gold.
90
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,520
There's no sign of human activity
here at all, and that is super loud.
91
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,240
So good.
92
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,000
Ah, look at that.
93
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,280
Man, that's a beautiful piece.
94
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:42,200
Got smooth edges, which tells me
that it's travelled down
this creek some distance.
95
00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:45,840
It's even got a hole
through the centre, look.
Makes it super valuable.
96
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,480
So like it. I like it a lot.
97
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:03,040
All right. I got a bit of a surprise
for you, dear.A surprise?
98
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,840
Yep.Is it a new kitchen?
99
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,720
What? Why would there be
a new kitchen out here, in the bush?
100
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,760
You'll just have to wait and see.
101
00:06:12,840 --> 00:06:14,440
All right.
102
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,880
Oh, God, what is that?
103
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,720
New toy.
104
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,320
What have you done?
105
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:32,400
Like, we've got so much to do
with the house and you go on
and spend money that we don't have.
106
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,800
Well, this didn't actually
cost us any money.
107
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,080
All those favours I've been doing
lately for other companies,
108
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,360
instead of paying me,
they gave me bits.
109
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,920
I had to get everything working.
110
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,480
It's actually two or three
old machines put together.
111
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,680
And it didn't cost us anything?
112
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,360
I'm going to just ask again, cos...
Cost us a couple of bob to get it
out here, but that's about it.
113
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,560
So, I've always wanted
to dig deeper over here,
114
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,360
but we've never had the machinery
to actually dig through
the hardest soils.
115
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,640
I believe it's a pretty good spot.
116
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:09,440
We just need to dig it, detect it,
prove it and then we can process it.
117
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,920
So this will get us the gold
that we need to get your kitchen.
118
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,040
Yeah?
Yes.
119
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:16,720
Let's get some gold.
120
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,760
Get some gold.Yeah.
121
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,320
Are you looking forward to
seeing your new house?
122
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,720
No.No?
I like my old house.
123
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,120
After losing her office job,
124
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,680
Kat and partner Brett Brumby
were forced to move
125
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,200
into an abandoned house
in an old ghost town.
126
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,120
They took up hunting gold full-time
with Kat learning from scratch...
127
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,800
Welcome to the real world.
128
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,440
..but when their 70-year-old tractor
broke down,
129
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,880
their operation came
grinding to a halt.
130
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,800
This is what you're in for.
Tough times don't last.
131
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,040
Tough people do.
132
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,280
But we've got a massive excavator.
133
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,680
It didn't cost us anything
but favours
134
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,360
so I'm pretty excited.
135
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,680
We'll grab the detectors
and we'll get going.
136
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,520
This digger could be the key of us
getting some big gold,
137
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,480
some good gold.
Look at it go.
138
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:20,720
We've been earning a living moving
very, very small amounts of dirt.
139
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,760
This machine moves
massive amounts of dirt.
140
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,600
So we should be able, in theory,
141
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,720
to get a lot more gold
a lot more quickly.
142
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,680
We've got to find
some good pay-dirt.
143
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,280
So we're digging down
over the overburden,
144
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,360
looking for the nuggets that are
trapped in the clays underneath.
145
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,680
And hopefully we find
a good little nuggety patch
146
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,920
that's worth putting through
that wash plant.
147
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,040
Brett's just dug out
this nice little ditch,
148
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,240
which didn't take long
with the new digger.
149
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,080
So I'm looking to see
if there's any good pay-dirt.
150
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,960
Yeah, we've been through a lot
and we lost the house
151
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,720
and we had to move out to Gwalia,
the ghost town.
152
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,600
I promised Kat a better life, so...
153
00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:10,400
you know, I'm doing my best
to make that happen.
154
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,640
She deserves a good life.

Oh! Oh! Oh-ho!
157
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,640
Little bit of gold.

Hey, my love.Coming.
We're on. Check this out.
159

It's small but it confirms that
there's gold here, like...
160
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,920
Yep, that's it. That's a positive.
161
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,880
Do you want to stockpile this dirt,
and go start up the wash plant?
Yeah.

Yeah, let's rock!
Let's rock and roll.

00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,280
is the Brumbies' wash plant
Dirty Gertie,
165
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,360
and Brett's 32-year-old dump truck.
166
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,920
We need to get the truck down,
load it up and bring it back.
167
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,800
You'll be feeding the wash plant.
I can do that.
168
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,280
We're gonna be pretty busy,
and it's gonna be hard.
169
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,240
Yeah, something's
not right here, eh?
170
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,960
What's going on here?
171
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,120
Oh!
172
00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:18,680
Where's the water gone?
173
00:10:20,680 --> 00:10:23,000
What's going on?
Yeah, I don't know.
174
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,440
I guess it's the cows have gotten in
for a bit of a drink.
175
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,760
Oh, my God, look at all...
Oh, they've just drained it.
176
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,120
Yeah.
There's so many holes ripped up...
177
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,880
Yeah...the water's drained.
178
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,080
This is just not gonna hold water.
179
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,400
Yeah.Not gonna hold water.
180
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,400
We can't process
until we refill the ponds.
181
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,280
I just can't believe it.Yeah.
182
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,760
It means it's a day without gold.
183
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,280
(ENGINE SPUTTERING)
184
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,280
Pa!Yeah.
185
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,880
Just not getting power, really.
Fuel getting into the filters.
186
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,720
Hopefully, if we pop this
in here now
187
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,280
and hit the key, it should start.
188
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,680
All right, Eth,
give her a go, mate.
189
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,720
(ENGINE SPUTTERING)Ah.
190
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,440
We've got a major short,
major problem somewhere, Eth.
191
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,040
We don't really need this right now.
192
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,160
We had a really good start
to the season
193
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,120
with the gold tally, really,
considering the issues we've had,
194
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:30,840
but this excavator going down,
195
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,520
it's one of the major pieces
to the bigger puzzle here.
196
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,480
I've got no idea
exactly what's going on.
197
00:11:38,560 --> 00:11:40,760
This is just frustrating.
198
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,640
Really? You can't get
anyone out here sooner?
199
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,280
Well, that ain't going to work
for us.
200
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,520
But if that's what it is,
that's all you can do.
201
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,280
Well, all right, mate. Thank you.
202
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,120
Ah, not good news, fellas.
203
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,840
The earliest one can get here
is Tuesday of next week.
204
00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:04,000
So I don't know what we're gonna do
right now, to be honest, boys.
205
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,320
All right.I don't know
what we're gonna do.
206
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,520
You know, I feel for youse
because Eth's taken the plunge,
207
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:15,280
setting the target, you know,
and a great target, I think.
208
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,400
That was all based around the fact
of moving this dirt, though.
209
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,920
Well, that ain't a great start
to the week.
210
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,680
The only thing I can possibly
think of to try and get some money
in with that
211
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,000
is detecting. Bush detecting.
212
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,600
To be honest, I don't know if that
swinging all (BLEEP) week...
213
00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:34,320
Neck's all right,
but it's trying to find a new area.
214
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,280
We've flogged all those spots.
We've got no other option, mate.
What are we gonna do?
215
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,280
I'll tell you what,
I do have some spots,
216
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,360
and some not very far from here.
217
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,240
Right.Would you be,
maybe, willing to share some or...?
218
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,400
Well, I can't promise you any gold,
you know.
219
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:56,480
Like, I can just promise you
they're good spots.Really?
Yeah.How good?
220
00:12:56,560 --> 00:13:00,640
Trust me. All right.
Good spots.Good spots.
I'll take your word for it.
221
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,680
We all do some work,
I think we might turn something up.
Sounds good.
222
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,040
Ethan's come up with the right idea.
223
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,480
It's the only solution to this
when this sort of thing happens.
224
00:13:12,560 --> 00:13:14,800
We'll see how we go.
225
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,080
How's your neck feeling, mate?
It's feeling a lot better, mate.
226
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,240
I don't need that big neck brace
any more.
227
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,360
I sort of use this little light one
that gives a bit of support.
228
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,600
A hell of a lot better
than it was not long ago.
229
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:29,520
Right-oh, boys. Follow me
and make sure you keep up.
230
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,840
No worries.
Don't want to lose you in the bush.
231
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,360
Hey.Hey, boys.
232
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,000
Brent Shannon
and mining legend Neville Perry
233
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,640
have been friends
for over two decades.
234
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,200
During that time,
their shared passion for gold
235
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,480
brought them together
on several lucrative ventures.
236
00:13:47,560 --> 00:13:50,000
Amazing.That's pretty good.
Pretty good.
237
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,560
Now, with his health in decline...
238
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,880
I was diagnosed terminal
with cancer.
239
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,160
..he is once again putting
his trust in Brent,
240
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,880
this time with the secret locations
241
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,240
responsible for some of
Neville's biggest gold finds.
242
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,360
You always keep these spots in
the back of your mind to go back to.
243
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:20,160
But a lot of these places I haven't
been back to for 25-odd years and...
244
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,720
But I've had really good gold
off them.
245
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,440
My health is, you know, of concern,
246
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,320
and that's why this information
247
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,640
and these places
need to be passed on,
248
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,320
because I don't know
how much more time I'll have.
249
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,880
My current treatment's
no longer working.
250
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,240
CHLOE: These look like
really good grounds.
251
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,840
There's lots of quartz,
exactly what we're looking for,
252
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,080
but not finding any gold.
253
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,640
I really want to hit
our season target this year
254
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,640
because that will get me
to get my chopper licence,
255
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,440
and that's been a dream
of mine for a long time.
256
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:16,520
Being so remote, actually,
in the country,
you think you're all alone.
257
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,120
But I know there's heaps
of animals out here,
258
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,840
some a little bit more dangerous
than others.
259
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,960
The police has actually told me
to just be aware
of your surroundings.
260
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,320
This is why I'm never putting
both of my headphones on my head,
261
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,760
because I want to hear
what's happening around me.
262
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,040
I hope Justin is finding some gold.
263
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,120
He'd better be finding gold
because I'm finding nothing.
264
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,080
(DETECTOR WARBLES)
265
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,840
Yeah, beautiful.
There's our little target.
Just there.
266
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,080
It's a massive noise.
267
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,920
Massive noise.
268
00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:00,280
We're out. We're into it.
This is gonna be good.
269
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,520
Where are you?
270
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,320
There somewhere.
Shifted it.
271
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,640
Oh, look at that.
272
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,320
Have a look at that.
273
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,760
That is probably one of
the most reef-iest pieces of gold
I have ever found.
274
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,360
That's insane.
That's a ten-grammer, for sure.
275
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,960
That's what we come for. Oh!
276
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,880
Chloe's going to lose her mind.
277
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,240
Big gold jar.
Keep that from Chloe, I reckon.
278
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,240
Are you there, Chloe?
(OVER RADIO) Yeah.
279
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,920
We might go back to the chopper
and set camp up, babe?
280
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,120
Yeah. Quickly.
281
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,320
I'll see you there.
282
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,480
Hmm. How did you go?
Hey. Good. How did you get on?
283
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,480
Nothing.No good?
284
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,560
I'm going to go get
some wood for the fire.
285
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,920
How about you set up the...?
All right.
286
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,000
I carry this trail cam around
because we got a couple of contracts
287
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,160
where we monitor
the feral animal movements.
288
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,040
We're gonna set it up
289
00:17:20,120 --> 00:17:23,360
and get an idea as to what animals
are really out here at night-time.
290
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,200
(HOWLING)
291
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,640
What was that?
Justin, did you hear that?
292
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,000
Yeah. Must be the wild dogs
around here.
293
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,920
But I've got my gun here.
I'll just keep it close by.
294
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:56,560
Are you serious? All ripped.
That's drained away.
295
00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,600
Yep. It's not patchable either.
What are we going to do with this?
296
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,240
There's no use mucking around.
It needs a new liner.
297
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,400
I don't have any, so I have to shoot
into town to get some.
298
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:13,400
We're a little bit shy of time,
so if it's all right with you,
299
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,960
I'll get you to stay here
and do a bit of shovelling.
300
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,080
We just want it sort of cleaned out.
301
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,160
Yeah, you got this, all right?
I can do it.
302
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,320
And I'll figure out
how to cow-proof the dam.
303
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,400
All right.Have fun.Yeah.
304
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,640
Good luck. I'll be back
as quick as I can.
305
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,320
Yeah.
306
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,840
The cows can smell the water
from pretty far away.
307
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,960
That'll be why they've
come to our water dam,
308
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,960
and we just got to, you know,
expect that.
309
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,640
Just had an idea.
310
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,680
Brett said something about
the little excavator over there.
311
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,960
Haven't actually driven it on my own
before, but I'll bring that here.
312
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,080
Scoop it on here.
313
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,280
I reckon that's better than
getting a shovel.
314
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,400
A-ha, success!
315
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,960
I think I need to get some L-plates
to put on this thing.
316
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,160
I'm gonna try and grab this plastic.
317
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,480
If I can line her up... Oops.
318
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,560
(LAUGHING) Bunny-hops!
319
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:22,000
I reckon I can drag that up.
320
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,600
And pull! Come on, baby.
321
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,800
Nice. I've moved it
right out of the way.
322
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,280
Brett's gonna be so proud of me.
323
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:45,280
You're all good?
All good. All in one piece.
Machine's all in one piece.
324
00:19:45,360 --> 00:19:49,280
I think I've done all right.I think
you've done all right as well.
325
00:19:49,360 --> 00:19:51,160
Yeah.You got the old tarp off.
326
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,920
You've done an amazing job.
Well done.
327
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,680
Well done.Thank you.
I'm proud of you.Sweet.
328
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,600
All right, we've got to put
the carpet and the plastic liner in.
329
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,200
Gotta get the water in
and get sluicing again.
330
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,480
Every hour we are out here
fixing stuff
331
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,760
is an hour
we're missing out on gold.
332
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,800
We should be processing,
not fixing things.
333
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:19,000
I want to start eating meat again
after these cows have ruined this.
334
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,240
Brett's going to turn the water on
and then we're ready to rock n roll.
335
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,440
Happy times!
336
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,520
So, the bore feeds the tank
337
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,640
and then goes all the way down
to the settling ponds.
338
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,480
Look, we got some water.
We got water again.
339
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,040
Fantastic.Water!All right.
340
00:20:37,120 --> 00:20:40,760
I'll run the dirt.
You feed the plant.
Yeah.Let's rock and roll.
341
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,440
So, I've got to put
the truck in position.
342
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,720
No key? No key.
343
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,000
Kat!Yeah?
344
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,840
You have the key?
What's going on?
345
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,320
Have you moved the key?No.
346
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,640
Why would I move the key?
Have you had the key?
347
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,720
No, I didn't even touch this thing.
I'm too scared to touch it.
348
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:16,480
Normally keep the key
in the old ashtray.
349
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,440
You sure it hasn't fallen down
or anything?Key's gone.
350
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,000
What does that mean?
We can't move the truck.
351
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,200
We can't get through the steering
lock. We can't do nothing.
352
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,560
If we don't get this truck running,
the new excavator is useless.
353
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,160
(OVER RADIO)
You're on channel there, Brent?
354
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,640
Yeah, Nev.
We're approaching Kingower,
the heart of big nugget country.
355
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,080
In around here, mate,
you have the Hand of Faith.
356
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,560
870-odd ounces,
found by Kevin Hillier.
357
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,880
We were good mates.
A great bloke, great prospector.
358
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,040
Sadly, no longer with us.

NARRATOR: Five of the biggest
gold nuggets ever found
360
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,720
were unearthed
in Victoria's Golden Triangle,
361
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:15,120
including the 27 kg Hand of Faith,
currently on display
362
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,280
at the Golden Nugget Casino
in Las Vegas.
363
00:22:18,360 --> 00:22:20,880
It's still the largest nugget
in existence
364
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,000
found with a metal detector.
365
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,720
We're going to pull up here, mate.
This is about as far as we go.
366
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,320
The rest we've got to go on foot.
367
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,800
We're on foot from here
because you start driving,
368
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,600
you're making obvious tracks
for other people to follow.
369
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,760
So let's get it-
I'm bloody excited.
370
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,800
We haven't even found gold
and I'm excited.
371
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,080
Ethan, you've got to understand
372
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,840
how lucky we are to be in the heart
of the biggest nugget country
anywhere on the planet.
373
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,720
Save your excitement
for when we find some gold.
374
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,240
There is no better place.
There is no...In the world.
375
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,000
Well, I think we'll just go.
376
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:06,600
No, I'm serious.
We have a chance of finding
another one today.
377
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,600
It's gonna be a long walk, mate.
378
00:23:16,360 --> 00:23:18,720
You really know where you're going,
Nev, or what?
379
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,280
Yeah, mate, just keep pushing
your way through
380
00:23:21,360 --> 00:23:23,040
1km-1.5km this way.
381
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,600
We're here.Righty-oh.
Definitely out the way.
382
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,360
Yeah. So all around here,
scattered on the top here,
383
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,760
some all-right bits down
over that side.Yep.
384
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,080
But the good stuff was coming down
off of this into this pan here.
385
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,360
With having
the three different detectors,
386
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,160
I'll work the mid-ground.
Then you work the small stuff.
387
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,280
Well, big gold. Big coil.
388
00:23:46,360 --> 00:23:50,440
But let's just start swinging
and see what we come up with, eh?
389
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,880
For millions of years,
390
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,200
ancient waterways ran through
the mineral-rich ground
391
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,080
of Victoria's Golden Triangle.
392
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,920
The water left behind
pockets of gold
393
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,360
now buried
beneath layers of sediment.
394
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:14,440
Nevi has a wealth of knowledge and
for him to pass that information on,
395
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,480
even for future reference,
it's just... yeah, that's gold
in itself.
396
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:22,240
You know, it's important that
that knowledge keeps getting shared
397
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,000
because unfortunately,
it's usually not documented.
398
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,000
It's usually all in here,
so I'm forever grateful
399
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,520
that Nev's starting
to pass this knowledge on to us.
400
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,600
I'm just really sad for the reason
why he's doing it now, you know?
401

(DETECTOR WARBLES SHARPLY)

five or six feet.

Yep, getting into
the gravel there now.

I think she's here.
406

The beauty
about coming to these spots,
407
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,480
I'll tell you what,
it brings back memories,
memories of days long gone by.

I mean LONG gone by.

to be back out here,

you know, it just...
brings a tear to the eye,
411

just being back here
and remembering those days,
412
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,160
those times,

I've only got a short...
414

possibly a short time left.

This is what it's all about,
just being out, this...

This is my office. Look at it.
417

You just can't get any better
than to be out here.

You were snoring and I heard dogs
right there.Did you?Yeah.

We'll go and check the camera
to see what's showed up on it.

That looks like a dog.

Jesus, he was right there.

I don't have a gun.

All right. We'll get out of here
and see if we can't find
another patch, eh?

00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,200
Yeah. Sounds perfect.
We'll do that.

of dingoes and feral dogs

to replace the ignition module.Yep.

but we can drill it out.

we're down for over a week.

491
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,800
The plan is
I'll be digging out the dirt
492
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,280
and Kat will be running it over
at the wash plant.
493
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,280
So hopefully we've got
no more setbacks.
494
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,200
All right, truck's full.
495
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,160
Let's process some gold.
496
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,240
Yeah. I'm full-time on the gold.
497
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:22,480
I thought it was gonna be nice and
easy-breezy finding all the gold,
498
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,440
but this is tough. Everything just
keeps on going wrong.
499
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,280
So, I used to be out here on my own,
doing all this kind of stuff.
500
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,400
And I'm pretty happy with Kat.
501
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,760
She's got a pretty good attitude
about everything.
502
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,080
Kat's smashing through
the dirt there on her end,
503
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,040
so I've got to keep smashing
through the dirt at my end.
504
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:49,280
Trying to get the load back to Kat
before she runs out of pay-dirt.
505
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,200
Oh, for...
506
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,040
You on channel, Kat?
507
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,440
I need you over here
with my tool-kit.
508
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,360
I'll be there in a minute, my love.
509
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,600
What's happened now?
All right.
510
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,600
So, the short version is
when we dodgied up the ignition
511
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,600
the starter motor stuck on,
it's cooked the batteries,
512
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,640
and it's (BLEEP)
the starter motor.
513
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,840
Blown the terminals to bits.
514
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,560
We shouldn't have dodgied it.
515
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,000
We should have got
a proper ignition module.
516
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,480
(CHUCKLING)
Well...
517
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,960
Oh, my God. This is just ridiculous.
518
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:58,000
It's just the biggest run of
bad luck I've ever seen in my life.
519
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,240
It's heartbreaking.
520
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,400
It is heartbreaking.
521
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,640
I'm trying to be tough.
I'm trying to be strong, but...
522
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,840
..I'm absolutely shattered.
(SNIFFLES)
523
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,280
It's just one thing after another
524
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:26,960
after another after another, and
I don't know how much I can take.
525
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,720
I am...beyond...
526
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:36,360
..beyond stressed.
I am beyond everything.
527
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:42,400
After everything that has happened,
I thought we could
at least get one win.
528
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:53,280
(SNIFFLING)
529
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:07,160
Nev brought us back to the spot
where he got a hell of a lot
of gold years ago
530
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,600
and the last time he was here
it was very old technology.
531
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:14,960
It's likely no other detector's
been here for 30 years.
532
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,360
We should get
a bit of gold from here.
(DETECTOR WARBLING)
533
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,080
There it is.
534
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,000
It's a little speccie,
a bit of gold in it.
535
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,640
Not a big bit,
but it's a bit of gold.
536
00:34:25,720 --> 00:34:28,160
The boys have been doing
pretty well.
537
00:34:28,240 --> 00:34:30,960
I've seen a lot of little holes
starting to perk up.
538
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,960
I'm just following them around,
basically, going over it all
with the big coil.
539
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:39,640
That's essentially all I'm here for,
is just to pick up bigger gold,
and hopefully it...
540
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,920
(DETECTOR WARBLING)Yeah.
541
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:46,720
Hey, Brent.
542
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,760
Yeah, mate?I've actually got
my first real target here, mate.
543
00:34:51,240 --> 00:34:53,520
Look at that, right now.
544
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,680
We've got those nice gravels
coming through.
545
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,840
Hey-hey, couple of hours ago,
I dug one right there.
546
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,720
I came through here.
That small coil couldn't get it.
547
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:03,480
Now it's definitely gonna be decent.
548
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,000
It's gonna be deep,
and I'm just gonna watch.
549
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,600
I can't dig. Come on, Eth.
550
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,400
Just pinpoint it again, Nev.
551
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:19,440
See it?(ALL TALK AT ONCE)
Gold there, boys.
552
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:23,280
Look at that, eh? Ha-ha!Yeah.
Look at that, Nev.
553
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,760
That's all right, mate.
That's a chunk.
554
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,360
It's an all-right bit. I don't know
that I'd call it a chunk.
555
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,280
Look at that. It's the chunkiest bit
we've got so far.
556
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,480
I'd say it's not bad, Nev.
It's not that bad.
557
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:36,520
I'll tell you what,
an ounce and a half.
558
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,520
The pieces are getting bigger
and I can smell it.
559
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,160
We're not far away
from something good.
560
00:35:42,240 --> 00:35:46,160
Good on you, mate.
Beautiful. All right,
you can go back to detecting.
561
00:35:46,240 --> 00:35:48,480
Well done, mate. Well, done.
Thanks, buddy.
562
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,880
I think I got a target here.
563
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:04,040
Very faint target, pretty broad.
Hey, you want to come over here?
564
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,840
We got a target.
It could be ground noise.
Yeah, mate.
565
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,720
Whack yours on and give us a listen.
566
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:11,720
Reckon it's a target.
(DETECTOR WARBLING)
567
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,640
Hah. Hey, Nev! Nev!Yeah.
568
00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:17,440
Have a listen to this, Nev.
569
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,240
Oh, yeah, that's sweet.Eh?
570
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,080
And that's got some depth in it.
It has. I can't believe it.
571
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,680
This is going to be
something decent.
572
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,640
Put your back in it, Eth, come on.
573
00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:33,280
Could be digging here all day now.
This is going to be decent.
574
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:37,960
Yeah, you scrape it out, mate,
dig it out, get into it.
Don't damage it.
575
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,120
Shut up.
It's gotta be gold.
576
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,040
Look at that.
577
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,680
Let's have a pinpoint, Eth,
so we don't hit it, mate.
578
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,680
Anything to stop digging,
I'll be happy.
579

(DETECTOR WARBLING)
(MINERS EXCLAIMING)
580
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:56,120
In that area there, I reckon, mate.
Down on the bedrock there, Nev.
581
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,920
That's where it is.
With the old technology we had,
582
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,680
we never dug holes like this,
I can tell you.
583
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,520
Oi, hang on. Hang on.
A bit of gold there.
584
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,520
There's gold. There's gold.
Oh, there is.
585
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,960
It's gold, you see?
It's gold.Nev, good spot.
586
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:16,800
Pop it out, mate, pop it out.
587
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,440
Just get the point and see
if it will pop.Yep, you can see it.
588
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:24,400
All right.
589
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:28,040
All right, give it...give it
a little bit of a nudge, Eth.
There it is.
590
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,240
Nev, look, look, look.
591
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,200
See, it's popping.
Look at that.

Oh, my God.

Mate, now that's a chunk.
(CHEERING)That is a chunk.
597
00:37:47,720 --> 00:37:50,800
Mate, I can't believe it.
(INDISTINCT)
598
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,360
Wow.They're the chunks
we're looking for
599
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,600
and there'll be more of them.
600
00:37:55,680 --> 00:38:00,200
Eh?(TEARFUL) I can't help it...
Eh?Sorry, mate.
601
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:03,440
Eh? It's all good, mate.
602
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:05,320
All good.
603
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,840
Thanks, mate.What a ripper.
604
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,240
I can't believe it.
That's what we're here for.
605
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,160
That's what we're here for, mate.
606
00:38:13,240 --> 00:38:15,240
Thank you, Nev. Seriously.
607
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,760
Well, I'll tell you what.
Well done, mate.
608
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,960
That is a decent haul.
Decent haul.
609
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,720
Hey, these are the moments,
they really are.
610
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,680
They are the moments, you know.
611
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:27,920
And I am hoping this isn't
the last big piece
612
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,920
that we're going
to dig out together.
613
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:42,440
Mining's a real tough game.
They say only one in ten leases
pays for itself.
614
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,960
And we don't know
if this is the one in ten,
but we've got to try.
615
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:53,400
All we can do is run through
the rest of the pay-dirt
we've got stockpiled here.
616
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,440
We just gotta keep
running the dirt.
617
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,720
Kat, that's it.Shut her off?
Shut her off. Clean her up.
618
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,280
What a week, eh?
619
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:10,840
Yes, yes, I've never,
never had a week like that, ever.
620
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,480
It's been ridiculous.Yeah.Insane.
621
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:18,160
I'm actually quite proud
of the way that you dealt
with things. So well done.
622
00:39:18,240 --> 00:39:23,200
It's definitely a learning curve
and hopefully I'll get
a kitchen out of it.
623
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,200
Look good.
624
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,480
Don't like your chances,
but we'll see how we go. Come on.
625
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,400
1.3oz.
626
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,200
NARRATOR: ..worth $3,900.
627
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:39,080
This week's gold still leaves
the Brumbies 48oz short
628
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,080
of their 50oz season target.
629
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,640
Well, considering
the week we've had
630
00:39:43,720 --> 00:39:45,440
it's not great, but it's not bad.
631
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,840
I don't know.
I'm impressed with that, but...
632
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,160
Yeah, but that's no kitchen, dear.
633
00:39:51,240 --> 00:39:54,880
I'm sorry. You have to wait
another week for a kitchen.
634
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,680
Just a little bit of a kitchen?
635
00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:59,960
If you're lucky I'll get
you an electric kettle.
636
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,640
Well, that would be lovely.
Yeah, you know.All right.
637
00:40:02,720 --> 00:40:04,560
Out here that's what happens.
638
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:06,560
You know, sometimes
you have a tough week.
639
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,040
Sometimes you have a great week.
640
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,920
They do even out eventually.
641
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,520
It doesn't feel like it
at the moment.
They do even out eventually.
642
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:20,080
So all we can hope for
is a better week next week.Yeah.
643
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:32,560
JUSTIN: I'm exhausted.
644
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:36,320
What a week it's been
in Murchison, eh?CHLOE: I know.
645
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,520
All right, let's put some numbers
on here.
646
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,080
Let's see how we ended up.
647
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,520
Whoo! I'm excited.
648
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,040
Oh!
649
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:49,960
You did do well.
650
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:54,520
1.2 oz.1.2 oz.
651
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:58,400
Well done.
That's definitely your best haul.
That's great. Well done.
652
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:02,440
All right. You ready for mine?
I'm ready.Here it comes.
653
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,800
Boom.
Boom. (LAUGHING)
654
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:12,920
Look at that.
That...2.2 oz.
655
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,600
That's not bad.
But I do have a little surprise.
656
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,520
What do you mean?
I have a little cherry on top.
657
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,880
(GASPS)And an extra 0.3
of an ounce for you.
658
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,320
Ah! This is incredible.
659
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:30,680
So that takes us to 3.7 oz.
660
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:36,000
The Heli Hunters have found over
$11,000 worth of gold this week,
661
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,920
taking their tally
over the halfway mark.
662
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,120
Well and truly above
what we'd hoped for.
663
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,480
God.So it puts us right on track
for 10oz for the year.
664
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,160
Well done, baby.
665
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,280
All right, boys. I can't believe...
I still can't believe it.
666
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,040
There. I'll tell you what.OK.
Let me weigh the big one.
667
00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,200
No, no, chuck the small stuff
on first.All right.
It's your patch.
668
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:03,800
What have we got?
669
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,520
8.67oz, right?
8.67oz.
670
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,880
That's not bad. That's a nice little
chunk you got there, too.
671
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:15,440
And you walked straight over
the top of that, Nev.
Straight over it. You're right.
672
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,360
But this is the cream.
What do you reckon this is?
673
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:20,600
Hey, I called it 25.
674
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,400
Let's get it on the scales and see.
You ready?
675
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,200
Yes. Do you want me
to cover my eyes?
676
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,840
Sorry. 38.7oz.
38.7oz.
677
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,400
So this is roughly 30oz.(LAUGHING)
678
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,400
Well done, boys.That's good.
679
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,640
The haul from Nev's secret patch
680
00:42:35,720 --> 00:42:39,880
pushes the Poseidon Crew's tally to
over a quarter of a million dollars,
681
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,760
with the massive
gold-encrusted quartz specimen
682
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,320
fetching a premium price
from collectors.
683
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:49,400
That's a $90,000 nugget. Eh?
Thanks to you.
684
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,160
In a collection, I reckon you'd get
another 20% on top of that.
685
00:42:53,240 --> 00:42:55,880
All that I can say is
I'm naming this nugget.
686
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,920
The Legacy nugget.
Well, I'm telling you, mate...
687
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:03,560
This means a hell of a lot, Nev.
In the future,
we'll plan some road trips.
688
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,320
All right, get out of here
before I start bloody bawling.
689
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,200
Mate, I love you.Keep going.
690
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,840
Thanks so much. All right.
We got more to go, mate.
691
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,960
Got more to go.
Thanks. Thanks, Nev.Right-oh.
692
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,800
