I didnt know the Sierra club is/could be behind these shows. Just made me think of all the footage they are getting of miners "raping the land" and using mercury etc. or twisted any other way they want. they probably wont show all the reclaimation that goes into the land.

Filling their coffers with cash and footage to be used downroad..........

They should know better than to use mercury, they should take it upon themselves to be above that and not to sink into using it just because "Everyone Else Is."
They had the money, where is their own concentrator?

They don't have money and didn't have any equipment. Think the "investors" where hanging on to the equipment because the kids owed them money? Hardly....

I said "had", not my fault the blew it. :P

The other team was keeping the equipment because their money has not been paid yet, or so they said.


Goldog = Exactly, at the very least use a retort, not a chunk of burning wood.

Sorry these rich kids crying broke isn't stirring much emotion, when it comes to respect I have a lot more for the Alaska guys.

Yes I'm surprised the producers cut an Ran early.

at least that appears to be what may have happened.

I really doubt they got ripped off, although they seemed to be dimwitted enough,
I would think between them & the TV crew they had at least 1 full brain to work with.
