In the wild terrain of Yukon, Rick Ness is on a mission to strike gold but is encountering some major obstacles. He has put a lot of money into drilling a deep hole in hopes of finding a $5 million gold deposit. However, despite his best efforts, he is falling short by 800 ounces and winter is looming. The landowner is putting pressure on him to up his production so he can afford to buy the land. Fortunately, through sheer determination and hard work, Rick is able to hit his biggest gold haul yet, securing the land for himself. Check out the full video to see how it all unfolds.
Rick Ness is currently facing difficulties in his gold mining venture as he falls short on his target by 800 ounces with winter approaching. However, there is a glimmer of hope as a deep test drilling suggests a potential $5 million gold find that could turn things around for him.
The landowner, Troy Taylor, who owns the claims being leased by Rick, surprises him with an offer to buy the property. Troy asks for a down payment of 150 ounces, which amounts to a hefty quarter of a million dollars. This unexpected offer leaves Rick with a lot to think about due to the financial implications and the timing of the proposition.
In a bid to ramp up gold production and meet the down payment requirement, Rick collaborates with his crew member, Kyle Lawson. Kyle, a former Yukon iron worker, steps up to the challenge and helps boost the gold output to achieve a record-breaking haul of 315 ounces for the week.
Thanks to the hard work of the crew, Rick now has the funds to make the down payment on the property and considers moving forward with the purchase. The team’s perseverance and dedication prove fruitful, setting Rick on a path towards potentially securing a promising gold mine.
However, Rick’s journey isn’t all about facing obstacles. In a surprising turn of events, Troy Taylor, the landowner, offers Rick an unexpected opportunity – to purchase the land that he is currently leasing. Embracing this challenge, Rick and his team work hard to increase their gold production and manage to achieve their biggest haul yet. With this newfound success, Rick is prepared to make a major decision – to fully own his own piece of land. While Rick’s pursuit of gold is far from finished, his unwavering determination and dedication have propelled him into a new chapter in his career in the gold industry amidst the stunning landscapes of the Yukon mountains.
