Can they finally hit the jackpot?

Gold Rush returns for a third season packed with incredible action as the hard-up miners endeavour to dig their way out of financially tough times by striking it rich.

After two years of equipment breakdowns, infighting and battling Mother Nature, one of the mining teams finally hits pay dirt. Parker Schnabel has a new crew, new land and a newly rebuilt wash plant on his side.

After months and months of digging, Dakota Fred finally hit bedrock and started to see the best gold yet just as winter set in last year, and has high hopes that this will finally be the season he walks away a millionaire.

Finally, in his quest to find 1,000 ounces of gold this season, Todd Hoffman doubles down with two claims and twice the crew and equipment. But is that enough to get him to his goal of finding ten times more than he did last year?
