ALASKA – It’s a busy day at Sean’s inland mine, as the team works relentlessly to ensure that this season’s efforts yield the best possible results. With water pumping into the pig and the ice operations in full swing, Mr. Gold himself is closely overseeing the progress.

“Looking good already, Picker’s there. Nice job, guys! That’s what it’s all about right there,” Mr. Gold says as he checks in on Joe and Stardog’s progress. The team is crushing it, working diligently to move closer to their goal. The goal: a nice big pile of gold.

With the inland mine’s operations finally pumping well, the focus shifts to how much gold will pile up on the scale after the crew’s efforts on the ice. “We’re going to make a lot of gold this year,” Mr. Gold adds, “and I’m hoping to see a big return. I’ve got $60 to $100 thousand a week going out right now, so I need every ounce I can get.”

The stakes are high. Mr. Gold has already spent a fortune just to access the inland mine, and with the work on the pits now beginning, the costs continue to rise. “When the pits finally drain, I’m going to be spending a ton more,” he admits. But despite the financial pressures, he remains optimistic. “The gold from this winter is critical. It’s startup money, and I need to work that pit.”

The moment of truth comes when the team checks the scale after a long day’s work. The results are positive, signaling a step toward the season’s 100-ounce goal. The final tally comes in: “27.8 ounces, worth $65,000,” the team reports with satisfaction.

With every ounce of gold bringing them closer to their goal, Joe and the crew are doing their part to help move the project forward, and it’s clear that their hard work is paying off. As the season continues, Mr. Gold is hopeful that with this momentum, the team will continue pushing toward a strong finish.
