My name is Emily I've been dredging for gold in Nome, Alaska for fourteen years now - currently captain of the 10-inch dredge The Eroica. I am also a professional opera singer and an amateur guitar player. You can follow my adventures on Bering Sea Gold on Discovery and, more recently, here on RU-vid!

You can't milk a musk ox, but you can build a bakery and not have to pay $20 for a loaf of bread. It is the responsibility of the residents to demand infrastructure. By the way cows eat grass just like musk ox do.
you need 3 more 20" suctions, a boom robot so no one gets wet, load up on color, why all the baby steps, get into it XXXXXXXXX, get paid.. no one lives forever... hey, was that a little Riedel I got a peek of there, she getting big? bee waiting ten years for you to get on the gold, now your on it, go big or go home, no reason anyone in AK has to be bigger than y our operation, no reason at all, its OK, you paid your dues M.. GO FOR IT! 3-4 20" suctions, robotic arms no one getting wet anymore, yes they make long extension booms you can duck in 30ft water easily, 60, 80, 100ft.. how deep you wanna go,t hey have all sorts of robotics for underwater, propelled vehicles that will pull he hose along, operating arms, or go boom style, life is way too short M, you're on it, something you have been waiting for for ten years I am aware of.. but picking it out 10-20 ounces here and there isn't going to cut it, its a living for all of you, that's the point I hope? the hope is to get in get out and get paid int he process, get your 50 mill get out, let someone else have a go at it.. I am aware of the learning curve but man you paid your dues, its your time.. you do have to invest... rent a shop build your own so cheap, that's what winters are for, write it up, have it certified, get to work.. next summer have a real rigg, a serious rigg, one that gets you paid, build it right and it wont require any out of ordinary maintenance for ten years, by then its someone else headache you have your 50 mill, maybe more? however at this rate your crew might be able to pull in if you can maintain the 2 ounce per hour 4 mill per season, after bills maybe 3... dived up? so 50 years to get to the 50 mill mark.. quadruple it, specially since your on good gold, it can be covered up the next season you know this you have to be able to get it when you're on it, leave nothing behind.. you guys are doing OK, but I fear you;re getting way to excited for too little in this game,t here is so much gold out there, man has only pulled 20% out of this earth, of that 20% maybe 5% is out of the after, they say there may be more gold in the water than on land, due to all the years of erosion and no one ever scooping it up, it all migrated to the oceans... so you need at least, 10 ounces per hour to make that 50 mill mark in ten years.. me, Id develop a good underwater depth detection device... that hits gold only, so you can deposit search and stop washing chicken feed deposits, 10 ounces per hour, that will show up on a good detector, you need an arm, 50 ft at least, a way to articulate it and read the sensors, it must eliminate false readings, gold only, and be able to do your prospecting for you, quantify in some manner, get together with a few companies see if someone is willing to work with you on it, you wouldn't be the first to develop something special to mine natural resources.. and it may pay off in spades, not only for the gold you haul, but the patents on the decide that can locate the gold from the inside of a ship, heat on.. coffee.. no more test dredging, none of that.. all that consumes so much precious time.. you can do this!
Love your vids . . And what great ground to be on . . Just a question . How come the vids are a year old??. . . Is that for your ground security . . Having seen other gold operations whos videos are say up to a month . . Would be nice to be more up to date . .💐 Till next time take care . Bye from New Zealand . 💐🍻👋🇳🇿twa
good grief you guys, weight the pan, then you don't have to waste any gold transferring from styro to pan then back.. sheesh you guys, write the weight of the pan on the wall
Great videos to see how the gold search is going. I wish though editors would stop putting music tracks into the BG. Not necessary and i think distracting apart from being annoying as hell. Just do atmos tracks wherever you shoot and drop them in your timeline if you feel it’s too quiet.
Awesome content ! your production keeps getting better every time I watch ! You really can’t miss with gold like that lol Keep them coming ! Hope you’re still in production this year, and having great luck ! Thanks again for all you do 👍😉
Running a dredge you guys can't get past the clay layer like an excavator right? after the overburden and the pay layer you have a limit, where it just won't pull hard pack. have you ever tried to scratch the hot area's with a handheld garden rake? pole or crow bar? or whatever would help break up the material? does that seem like a stupid question? or would it jam up the sluce?
I was thinking that they need to use the pressure hose that is made for that use on the smaller dredges. My little 4 inch has that feature which will break up the hard pack and make it possible to get the larger jammed rocks free without a lot of effort.
