While the treadmill runs the last of the blue cut.
Tony heads back into the 80 pup, cut to locate the white channel pastry.
I mean, down here now, you look in the hole, you got to be ten feet of red.
That stuff really, really didn't cut it for me last year.
It seems to be too much gold in it to throw it away and not quite enough gold in it to
make a living on it.
That may be a nice little piggy bank in here yet.
We'll find out.
Mike. Mike. Ni. Gabi.
I'll helps you put it on.
Mike. Mike the gobby.
Hiya. You come to the pup cot, please.
This season, Tony has put youngest son Mike in charge of the cuts.
Mike has convinced Tony to return to the pup.
Well, a lot of pay there.
A a lot of pay.
I mean, it's a good wide channel stuff.
Turned out very well, let's put it that way.
Nice work, Mike.
That's what you pay me for, Mike.
Oh, haven't I been doing a good job, Dad?
Both Mike, get out of the way.
The beats now face a race against time to expose the white channel paydirt before they
run out of blue cut pay.
They're all It's nice.
The land, the next piggy bank.
We got some decent coming out of this hillside.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I believe I found a task.
Oh. Well, that certainly is.
We're going to. Tusks is not that big of a discovery.
But if there's something attached to it, that's a whole different story.
It's very rare that I find a tusk like this sticking out of the bank.
A couple of years ago down here, we found a horse head here that is related to an donkey
and a zebra by DNA.
That was one of the oldest skulls ever discovered.
I see it from the kids.
I mean, they like to see like that.
Kevin. Monica, Mike Lee.
Gabby. Do you guys come up here?
I just found the mastodon tusks sticking out of the bank.
You see that guy?
Hmm. Interesting.
Wow. Holy.
That's the first time we see one sticking out of the bank, isn't it?
Yeah.
Nice and polished right there. Oh, yeah.
Mike, you go dig it out. Oh, I'm.
Always the one on pizza.
You're the best.
Not too close. Not too close.
Well, hang on. Hey, Dad.
Sick.
Let's see. Jawbone.
I think you might be right on that.
Rest of that might even be in there.
Okay, Hang in there. I got to think I just may want to phone them, paleontologist, and
then they can dig the rest out themselves.
I think that's. Yeah. You might have a whole skull in there.
If you're pulling off pieces like that.
I think you should definitely call it them.
But especially coming off like them, finding that baby mammoth.
Nothing else. Besides, it's good for the scientific community.
And like this, you don't find all the time.
They were going to do that.
We're going to lose time and cut it.
You know what I mean? Yeah.
Tony must now stop all mining in the 80 pup cut to bring in a team of paleontologists to
examine and remove the tusk.
His plan to stockpile white channel pay before they run out of blue cut pay dirt is
at a standstill.
Let me know there's something literally they'll need right now.
We found the tusk in the bank, which sometimes happens.
It's going to Nasdaq sleep.
However, at this point of the game, you really don't need that.
I must rather get going.
1880 pup so we can get that white gentleman.
That will be nice.
Two days ago, Tony Beets was forced to shut down the newly opened 80 pub cut after
finding Mammoth remains buried in the bank.
Oh, I've never seen a task quite like that before.
It looks pretty cool, actually.
Now a team of paleontologists have arrived to investigate and determine if there are any
more mammoth remains in the area.
This is one of the few sites where we've gotten another mummified for me.
So it's pretty exciting.
It's nice that we can slowly expose it in situ and it tells us a lot more.
We'll have to clear away some of that material to get a better sense.
Hopefully there's a skull in there, but it's hard to say.
You want to put it down right here?
We followed the rest of the tusk to the back and found the end of it.
It's just not attached to the skull.
To 95.
It's not.
Is.
It's 53.
Based on the length and also the circumference, you know that it's male,
probably 30 years old.
The team haven't found mummified remains this time, but they've unearthed a ten foot long
tusk belonging to a magnificent beast that roamed Paradise Hill over 30,000 years ago.
It's a good candidate for further analysis.
We don't often find a lot of big, mammoth pieces.
There's Tony.
How's it going?
We were able to extract this nearly complete tusk from the section.
Oh, that's actually pretty nice, huh?
We found part of the skull, but it's not attached, so you can start mining again.
That's great news.
Hello.
So that phase, though, and she sees you, you know.
At Paradise Hill.
How are you all present?
It's been a mammoth week.
That fossil we found was actually pretty cool.
That was a nice find.
Honestly, most of the time I enjoy finding that stuff more than gold.
I see gold every day.
You think that's funny, too?
No.
Good show, Jess. Anyway, the blue card, the gold card, they're pretty much done.
We're finished in there.
So for the rest of the season, the money is going to have to come out of 80 bucks.
Which looks pretty good, though.
It's got that nice white channel, right?
Makes sense.
It's time to weigh up the last of the gold from the blue cut.
We did sluice the full week, so let's have a look.
Three, two, one. Let's go.
20, 40, 60, 80.
To reach his 5000 ounce season goal.
Tony's gunning for 350 ounces a week.
One 8202 22 4303 23 point.
Nothing worth over half a million dollars.
There's still a pretty nice week, isn't it?
So nothing wrong with that.
Yeah. We should be getting down that other white channel pretty soon.
Yep. We should get some decent gold out of that.
