Check this out, some insane gold dredging in Nome, Alaska. Really interesting and a good watch.

would be good to see a show like this that wasnt scripted or atleast not so badly scripted. some awsome cleanups though, but more drama scripted in then goldrush alaska.

Watched the series, I think some will have made more out of TV royalties than the gold the found.

That stroppy group of 3 blokes...had to be staged...and who would act natural with a camera stuck in their face?

I have to wonder, with the big boys and the digger, what if they could go deeper?

Thanks for the link Cleggie. Enjoyed the watch.

Looking at TV1 news tonight about the ice on the Shotover, and this program, makes me think it would be a shit job if you had to do it, but it's good to be able to do it as a hobby

Even with the good and bad points of our claim system, it has still got to be better than the auction system shown in the program. You would never be able to outbid the big boys, or the Chinese farmers.

You can download the whole series at http://thepiratebay.se/s...ring%20sea%20gold/0/99/0 if you know how to use bittorrents. You just have to install a program like utorrent and then click the little magnet links next to what you want on pirate bay. If anyone needs more detailed instructions, just pm me so i'm not telling everyone, publicly how to break the law. Not that ive ever done this but i just happen to have HEARD how to do it. ;)
