Not again.
Hate to burst your bubble (LOL), but Gold Rush is fake as well. Production gave Schnabel $100K to buy equipment and pay employees, and he pocketed everything. All those jars of gold they kept showing for the cleanouts were rented from Tony Beets. I live near Prescott Arizona, Melody Tallis lives near me. Dave Turin was prospecting on a creek (Lynx) three miles from home, and a buddy is good friends with Fred Hurt. A WHOLE LOT goes on behind the scenes of every "supposed" reality based show.

I know they get paid and a whole lot goes on being the scenes but I think they are also blowing smoke at you on Tony Beets supplying the gold for weigh ins. May have happened one time but doubtful. I would not believe Dave Turnin he is a snake and Fred just wants his show. Am glad they all live near you though. I say fake news until you can prove it.
Neither of those stories came from either Dave Turin (never met him) or Melodie. They came from another friend of mine that knows most of the people on the show. Believe them or not, I really don't care. I simply used the stories as a way to explain that what you see is never what is true. The only show I had any faith in was Survivorman.

Survivorman was great !
Eldo,
Interesting find. Went to check it out on GE and you are saying that the GE image showing the tent canopy is from 2020, but it is actually from 1/2018 according to Google. It does seem to be the most recent image of that area though.
I went back in time to see if it was available to see when the things you are calling tanks might have showed up. They appear to have been there as far back as GE shows . . . 2004 at least. (prior to 2004, there is not enough detail to easily discern if they were there or not).
How did you come upon this if you don't mind me asking?

That is why a lot of production company's want a treasure story like oak island to milk as much as its worth. No one can deny what a good job the oak island crew has strung out over a muddy hole. 7 perhaps more years of employment over nothing? And to think they still have a highlights special and reunion special to flog.
I am surprised some thing similar has not been done with the Dutchman mine story and the Beale story?

Sarge is a friend of mine and I can assure you that he is NO crook in any way. The producers were scripting the action so keep that in mind when finding fault, to assign it where it truly belongs.
Not even for a $100k payday, to go out and play on camera for a few weeks on their dime Dave? Hell I would, and make it interesting too even if it is scripted! The only way to lose in such a proposition is to go in with high hopes/expectations, just remember it is for Hollywood and the general public consumption, and who knows one might 'get lucky' on camera - without even being in a porno flick!
Primarily two reasons:
1) The reality show would be outed for what it exactly is- a work of fiction.
2) Major networks and sub networks have to abide by SAG-AFTRA rules which stipulate that actors must be paid a "living wage" and are subject to "reasonable working conditions."
"Participants" on the other hand, receive very little protection. They sign away their ability to sue the production for anything, or go public with any information.
Some of yall have been put on the ignore list and when the show starts, I will not be communicating with you
Im working with them, you are not... There is a big difference. I got a lot more to lose by throwing the title out on here. You got nothing
I found the "lost dutchman mine" and its going to get shown thanks to chagy for this thread.
Seeing as how the guy who has Forrest Fenn's treasure chest in hand....as confirmed by Fen himself....I wonder what a top notch production outfit would be willing to pay the finder to feature HIS story in a series.....given they could have a final episode featuring the real deal fora change.
Just asking for a friend.....ya know.
You going with a hand drawn map like in Legends?
Or are you more of a Geomancy guy drawing all kinds of geometric designs all over Google Earth maps?
From what I have seen so far there is nothing compared to locating a set of wagons and a series of mine shafts, and the other mines from the Peralta Stones
What were you planning to show them?
Because these Legends are now able to be seen in detail one by one online....it's no big secret and to say you have made any discovery other than the 18 mines that are on the Stone maps is about as fraudulent as you coming here thinking that there is something new to be found
Here you go Roger.....the original pic I took of the site and openings way back when I joined here. Hope you can prove otherwise and impress us all but I can tell you that whatever you have to show us is more exiting to you than it is to us.
Just Sayin, don't waste your time
