La ruée vers l'or : les mines perdues

I have always enjoyed watching Gold Rush and especially Dave Turin's Lost Mine. Dave seems to be the real deal who takes responsibility for his own mistakes and stands behind his crew. I recently saw the episode where Dave visits the Nixon Fork Mine in Alaska. I was once the Chief Geologist at the Nixon Fork Mine when it was being run by Fire River Gold. If there are going to be more episodes on the Nixon Fork Mine, I would like to be involved. I think I can bring some additional reality to the program by instilling a little more "real" geology. It was sad to see the 10 stamp, Stamp Mill building collapsed. When I was working the Nixon Fork Mine, the building was mostly intact and was truly an amazing mill. Nixon Fork has intriguing geology and exceptionally rich pockets of gold. The last drillhole, I drilled contained 4 zones of narrow high-grade the richest was 4.5m of 1120grams per ton gold. I would love to contribute! Scott McKeag.

I like this show so far. I agree with character development. So far Casey, Chris, and Nathan seem like great team players. I like the little funny things that happen during the show. Casey's funny faces and the part about the cow is funny. They all seem like good southern type guys. So glad to see things turned out good for Casey and Dave. Both seemed like they were working with *******'s before. I am rooting for this team and they all deserve some good gold!

Just a very unlike able miner who breaks whatever rules he wants

If I were leading a class of management trainees, I would highly recommend that they watch this series. Dave Turin inspires and builds a strong team. I amazed at the negative reviews. I was captivated by this series. I have watched the other gold series with Hoffman whining, Parker telling his people to "figure it out"., and Tony Beets being bleeped every other line. This was so refreshing.

I also like the Freddy Dodge series with Juna Ibarra. Nice guys!

Of course I may be biased, I love a series with Christian, family men who care about each other and their families.

I've been a huge fan of Gold Rush since season 1, and have watched every episode up until now. Where the normal Gold Rush feels less scripted than Dave Turin's Lost mine, it is still a decent watch. There are some very cringe moments in which the crew praises Dave Turin as if he is some saint, which gives me the impression that there was a set agreement at the start of the season to praise Dave at every opportunity. The exploration of other mines is interesting, but the calculations afterwards are just odd and it feels like they're just naming (big) numbers to sound interesting. Where I rate Gold rush normally a 8, I rate this show a 6.
