In a time of uncertainty, Turin and team will have to risk it all to come away with a life-changing haul. This season of Gold Rush: Dave Turin’s Lost Mine, Dave, and his team will summon ingenuity, willpower, and creativity to tackle the challenge of mining in an unfamiliar location. And after Turin makes a game-changing pivot, the crew pushes on towards a record-breaking season. But Team Turin won’t be denied, and they return to work, on a mission to dedicate the season to Jesse and his share of the gold to his family. Devastated at the loss of their mining brother, the team takes time out to mourn. But the success turns bittersweet when gold room operator Jesse Goins suddenly passes away. Then, by looking at the lessons from local history, they soon begin to strike big hauls of gold.
They quickly face local resistance and the toughest ground they’ve ever mined, so the crew must dig deeper than ever before. With the Rocky Mountain summer heat on their backs, Team Turin’s detective work leads them to legendary ‘main channel’ gold the Colorado oldtimers missed. With gold prices reaching all-time highs, Turin’s dream of achieving financial security and total freedom seems just in reach until tragedy strikes the gold claim. Armed with an all-new state-of-the-art wash plant, they begin work on a lost mine with massive gold potential. In the official press release distributed by the media giant, the new Gold Rush season opens after pandemic travel restrictions make Turin’s plans of mining in Alaska impossible, Team Turin finally sets up their operation in Colorado. After years of growing tensions between Hollywood and high-country dwellers, the final straw for neighboring Park County included environmental impacts, as well as a good-old-fashioned standoff that ended in gunshot, with fortunately no injuries, other than a felony charge for one resident and at least one lawsuit for the Board of Commissioners. For readers unfamiliar with the popular series, it was early 2016 when the reality-TV show “Gold Rush” roared into Park County, descending on an old dredge near Fairplay with a small army of trucks and excavators to mine for television gold - and a bit of the real stuff, too. In the all-new season of Gold Rush on discovery+ the crew has been given the boot from neighboring Park County and has secured the necessary permits in Lake County for both the gold mining operations and to film the show. It’s time to fire up the popcorn, kick back in the recliner and find out what folks have been up to in your own backyard! But ever since The Discovery Channel rolled into Colorado in 2016 and began filming, the reality show has been scripting its own behind-the-scenes drama, wrought with neighborly feuds, environmental impact concerns, gunshots, and now the death of a crew member.
