Discovery Channel captures the historic finding in SILVER RUSH, premiering Tuesday, Feb. 12 at 10 PM E/P
(Los Angeles, Calif.) – This past summer, Discovery Channel cameras rolled as the world’s best-known deep-sea recovery team, Odyssey Marine Exploration (OME), successfully recovered approximately 48 tons of silver bullion from the SS Gairsoppa – making it the deepest and heaviest cargo recovery in history.

SILVER RUSH, a new three-part series narrated by Mike Rowe, premieres Tuesday, Feb. 12 at 10 PM E/P and tells the story of one of the greatest deep-sea treasure quests of all time. The series will take viewers on board Odyssey’s flagship, the Odyssey Explorer, as it launches its most audacious operation ever -- locate and excavate three shipwrecks worth as much as a billion dollars all in one season.
