Season 7

This season, a modern day gold rush is sparked when Shawn Pomreinke offers the fleet access to his virgin claim of untouched Bering Sea floor, rumored to contain 14 millions of dollars of gold. But access comes at a price.

When Zeke’s custom sluice malfunctions, Emily must step up to try and save the Clark’s season. The Kelly clan moves in too close to Vernon’s claim and Mr. Gold races to plug a hole that’s threatening to devastate his budding empire.

With the ice season in high gear, a flu hits the dredgers like a plague threatening to knock every operation out of the race. For the Pomrenkes, a mistake by father Steve could thwart their inland dreams and end their quest for empire.

Halfway through ice season, desperation kicks in. Teams risk it all, bringing in experimental equipment and infamous ex-employees in their quest to double production. But will the gambles pay off or will the crews lose everything?

With two weeks left in the season, the window to mine gold is closing. Zeke’s experiment with a double length hose puts his brother in danger. The High Noon’s water heater suffers a lethal malfunction and tempers boil at the Wild Ranger.

A double sluice and lack of divers mean that Emily Riedel must confront her deepest fear if the Clark is to succeed. Shawn "Mr. Gold" Pomrenke discovers the land sale of a lifetime.

With three days left in the season, miners push themselves to the brink. Sleep, safety, and sanity are out the window in order to dredge maximum gold.

Shawn Pomrenke's master plan is about to pay out.
