The Gold Mining Season Has Begun in Nome, Alaska

This is the week we FINALLY launch the Eroica into the water after a huge preseason push!
But before we can do that, we have some big tasks to complete. We have to get our brand new commercial dive compressor functional, make some big improvements to the sluice box, and deal with a steering emergency.
And what's it going to look like when we launch the boat? After completely rebuilding the Eroica's hull and making it almost twice as big, we're making educated guesses to adjust the equipment now that the deck is 2 feet higher out of the water.
If we guess wrong it could be a trip back to the shop for more work and tens of thousands of dollars of lost mining time.

As someone who did SCUBA training, but never got open-water certified, I will never forget the feeling of going for a breath and your tank was "empty." In our case, it was our instructor shutting our air off, but it was still terrifying! Having a reliable source of air is way more important than people may think, and I am glad to see you got that taken care of.

@TheEmilyRiedel 7 месяцев назад

All equipment fails, but it's definitely a breath of fresh air (pun intended) to make such a step-up in equipment quality. It really helped production last season!

A solid dredge and a solid crew, with you being Captain you will have a very successful season.

@DouglasHeyen 7 месяцев назад

Really look forward to see you all kill it this year. Everything is really coming along nicely. I’d maybe reconsider making those cams holding the expanded metal from plate steel rather than wood once you prove the concept. Having to beat on it over and over to clean the sluice will eventually beat them to pcs. And the water wood mix. It’ll expand once wet and could be an issue removing them after a couple weeks of dredging.

@TheEmilyRiedel 7 месяцев назад

Great idea! We went through quite a few of the wood ones last season. Don't do many non-essential projects mid-season, but we'll probably upgrade them this spring

@@TheEmilyRiedel sweet. Yea def not critical I’m rolling through 2023 Bering sea gold now on MAX. On ep 3 atm. Very cool to see the behind the scenes on here. I got a chuckle out of the Kelly’s making fun of crypto. Dogecoin if they held is now 8 cents and at time of airing they laughed at 3 cents. Also laughed at bitcoin being at 19000$. It’s Now over 40000$. As a crypto miner. We both mine. And both see the same issues of diluting the share with more miners. You mine traditional gold. We mine digital gold. Been great watching you evolve over the past decade. Most would have given up. Great on you!

I'm so excited for Eroica. Cam: a rotating or sliding piece (such as an eccentric wheel or a cylinder with an irregular shape) in a mechanical linkage used especially in transforming rotary motion into linear motion or vice versa. Eccentric: not placed centrally or not having its axis or other part placed centrally.

I have always watched the show because you are such a large part. It's time you produce your own series. You could get double rich, gold on one side and big TV money. I'm sure you signed a contract saying you can't do this on your own but make the show about behind the scenes of gold gathering. Then they can't say you are doing what the show did. Pl6 keep them coming. You are a great narrator!

@B-RAD4life 7 месяцев назад

Not to forget your marriage and baby as amazing milestones in your journey with the EROICA. Looking forward to following you and seeing all that SHINY you bring up from the ocean floor!!

When the day comes to launch and dredge, just remember that sometimes running ALL DAY long at 80-85% capacity is better than running just a few hours at 100% and breaking down all the time.

@TheMadManPlace 7 месяцев назад

Here is an idea to help with the frozen regulator issue and it may also help with diver durability. Put a simple heat exchanger on the air supply pipe. You have the warm water feed for the suite coming from the dredge top side so feed that hot water through a larger pipe through which the air supply pipe runs and seal it. This will mean that the regulator is fed air which is warmer and that should prevent the ice condition. In addition, the diver will be getting warmer air to breathe which will greatly reduce the stress that the divers body feels. The reduction of temperature of the water actually entering the dive suite should not be lowered all that much and if it is, increase the supply temperature coming from the dredge by putting in a heat exchanger up there. On the dredge there are a number of petrol or diesel motors all cranking out heat so why not use that heat in some way instead of simply dumping it back into the sea. This could be a game changer because a warmer diver is a more productive diver, a more alert diver and therefor a better diver. How many divers have you seen that are good at getting on the gold BUT their bodies and minds simply cannot handle the severe and mind sapping cold for a full shift? Divers LOOSE BODY HEAT through the air that they breathe so allow them to GAIN HEAT through their lungs to help replace the heat they are loosing through their bodies. You are already pumping warm water down to them, USE IT BETTER is all. And if the idea works, build yourself a skid sluice platform with all the gear on it (borrowed from the dredge at the start of winter) and go out on the ice during winter - an extra 4 months or so of income. Which means the ability to finance a spare compressor and whatever which can be used on either the dredge OR the ice sled. Imagine dredging for gold in the warm Caribbean sea...

@TheEmilyRiedel 7 месяцев назад

We kind of do that in a janky way using the hot water line near the diver and some pipe insulation and tape. Ice mining is a whole can of warms with a lot more considerations than just getting enough hot water. It's a lifestyle choice!

@@TheEmilyRiedel There's 40 episodes?! Brilliant! I was telling my husband and boys all about what you do! My husband is a groundworker so is well acquainted with dirt,machinery and getting down in holes! They know I have a complete fascination with Alaska. So it's so cool to see your videos every week!

@TheEmilyRiedel 7 месяцев назад

That's so great to hear! You got to get the family up here some time! And yes there are 40-ish haha don't know the final number for sure, but they're definitely being released every Saturday for the foreseeable future

@TheEmilyRiedel 40 ish is good enough for me! You work so hard, I dont know how you do it all! My Uncle teaches fishing and has published a couple of books, but he went to Alaska on a fishing trip a few years ago, I was so jealous! I quizzed him if he saw any Sasquatch when he got back!😆 Unfortunately he didn't. I lost my Dad in 2020 and then my Mum in 2022, which was devastating, but also they left me to clear the house and garden and multiple sheds as they were antique collectors and hoarders, I had to give up my job to do that full time. I'm just about done and almost ready to sell the house, which is so sad, as its my childhood home, and it's a beautiful Victorian house. But I my parents wanted me to do that and then I can give our boys everything they need, maybe a trip to Alaska would be awesome! Im Sorry, I don't know why I've just blurted all that out to you! ♥️

Argh these videos are too short!! Personally I would have drilled, tapped and plugged the bleeder hole but I’m also not against ghetto fixes if it gets me back to working quicker! I don’t know if I like the wooden cams, I think they will be prone to swelling and splitting. I probably would have bought a bunch of kitchen boards and used HDPE or maybe just welded some tabs to the side and used some wedges. But maybe I’m wrong. It must be getting exciting there now, close to running dirt! Can’t wait for that, the upgraded riffles should make a huge difference!

@TheEmilyRiedel 7 месяцев назад

That would've been an option too! The plywood cams definitely needed to be replaced a couple times - we're going to look into upgrading those this season. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! We'll be on the gold next Saturday!

@thesausage351 7 месяцев назад

@@TheEmilyRiedel Cannot wait! I hope all the upgrades were worth it! I think the upgrades to the suction hose will make a massive difference.

So much better than the old show, yes, you encounter problems but there is no mountain of drama or that annoying discovery announcer. Great job Emily.
