That is a possibility, or the toothbrush guy was tired of all the headaches that go with running an operation like that. That's a lot of stress out of your life, not worrying about every little aspect of your business.
I think Parker is smarter than that...they made it look like he just happened to have a chance at new property and jumped at it with out doing his research. These guys know each other, they know whats there and how to get it. The guy just wanted out...they still have to see each other, it's a small community.

This dynamic is always true. Parker, Tony have to remove overburden for weeks on end -- this gets EXPENSIVE. Only then, they can begin to sluice, sluice, sluice, sluice -- right up until the ice comes. What a thrill, every year.
That's what I felt like lol, that guy wanted to retire, and he was like, this place is done, give me $15mil kid lol. I think this was a poor decision from Parker.
I mean maybe but that is a lot of land and I am sure the guy was able to save more than 15m since this show started , even if he won't get as much out of it he will still be just fine financially lol@@joshn1678
No he doesn't.......any mining land is not allowed to be used as any kind collateral, that land is rented from the government. The land he actually owns is tiny.
obviously he has some money put away or with loans. you don't have $15M gone and don't back yourself up running a gold mine. he knows what it's going to cost to run it to a certain extent. all the drama is for TV. he will be fine.
@@stefanjohnson9480 you mean his dad knows lol where do you think the backing comes from ...his dad's major construction company! Lol his dad's business is one of only few out there! Most equipment he gets is from daddy 😂😂 he also maintains the roads in the area
Keep your head high you had four great people in your life. Grandpa, your Parents, and Tony. You are living the American dream hard work keeping you r nose clean and learning from your mistakes. You have three top guys Chris, Mitch, and Tyson and you have rounded out a good crew. Good Luck 🍀 in what ever you do, and thank you for the entertainment and watching you grow into a Man. 🤠👍

awh poor Parker, He had the world handed to him, He can't fail if He tried. I stopped watching this show a long time ago, it's all drama, why watch, when you can do yourself.
scraper op here, agree a 12 team push-pull crew would take a day or two to strip it all in ideal conditions ie dry ground. Scrapers do not perform well in muddy or wet conditions, they slide around too much.
Parker needs to Dig Deeper in a Concentrated Area with the Excavator. ....or Maybe get the Drill Crew in and get some Samples on how deep he has to go...To see if there is any Viable Gold Deposits...Better than Stripping a Huge Area and cost Millions on wages..fuels... Haulage Maintenance for Nothing..That's my Opinion... I'm just a Boilermaker welder 👨🏭...
Gold turns good people to 😢hurts my sister who was a very smart woman and sister, I feel like they kicked down the road after the mine did not work last seasons
He just got down to pay in the money pit in dominion creek takes him 11 weeks to strip that to me isn't really worth it unless I get 5,000 ounces alone out of the cut also the equipment they got with the mine is all shit high hours lo maintenance he just blew up a rock truck engine within a hour of starting it up
If he knew how to run a damn Cat (BullDozer) he would cut his time in half. That blade is 70% full. Use the dam Cat power!! He's not building a road he's pushing dirt. GreenHorn at its finest. Bottom Line Production decreased substantially . Drives me nuts they way the operate equipment on this show!!!!!
Parker, like most, is still using the wrong equipment. He's stuck on excavators and Volvo haul trucks. The optimal overburden gambit is K-Tec or its peers. These 'pans' allow a single operator to lift and strip overburden -- exactly of the type shown in the video clip -- without any second man running an excavator. The SPEED of these 'pans' allows for magic. Unlike a 657 Cat scraper, they have pretty low ground pressure and much higher speeds -- especially when hauling the spoil from A to B. Tony is using twin K-Tec pans to lay down tailings so as to firm up his roads around his diggings. Parker & Tony have tailings coming out of their ears, every season. Tailings can be picked up by K-Tec pans without a second operator -- or with -- you choose. You only need to turn back and use Volvo excavators after the small stuff is ripped off -- and the Big Cobble pulls into view. All placer miners end up spending most of their $$$$ on getting the overburden out of the way -- same as coal miners. In contrast, sluicing is idiot simple -- not withstanding the dramas crafted by the GR producers every season. ( Stuff like never having spares for anything. ) [ No spare tires? You're joking. No spare generators? You're joking. No spare pumps? You're joking. ] [ No radio-controlled Emergency stops at the gen-set/ pumps/ wash plant ? You're joking. ] [ You're not running two-crews in the Summer season? You're joking. ] (The drivers can't stay on the road? You're joking. ) ( The fuel tank ran dry?

First...don't think...let discovery channel do that for you. Of course you're thinking he bit off more than he can chew...that's what they want you to think...and so you do. The reality is quite different than that and you'll not know how much he can chew until the show has ended 10 years from now. I of course think you are wrong on the whole chewing thing,...I think he can chew quite a bit more. Lots more.
😅 poor Parker I hope you can recoup that 15 million if not I guess we can send them cans of beans since they'll be down a little how can anyone worried about poor Parker and his 15 million
Ridiculous just for drama. Regardless he has land worth 15 million. Even if he sells it at half million loss he’s not risking going broke. He’s making more than 99% of population just in the tv show. He’s certainly a likable personality and seems work hard but being said he’s certainly not self made. He depends on people who make much less than him for advice and without the hand me down they didn’t have he would just be a mine hand same as them
This fake drama is so boring parker would of not bought the land if he didnt know what risks come with it you make out he isnt to clever when in fact he is a very smart guy
No businessman writes a check for all their money when they can get a loan meanwhile collecting compounding interest on their $15,000,000 this is fake tv
Sick of hearing how much he’s spent on this new land and he’s going g to go bust not in he life time will he go bust the drama they make up on this show is ridiculous
Parker yells at his employees 'cause he doesn't make sure when he hires them and gives him the walk through, especially if someone's new Foreman, like on one of his pictures. I've watched where he was cussing out the forming. Cause it ran out of fuel because he didn't tell the person that he's responsible for everything. While he's sitting there on his million dollar button. Doing nothing but running around complaining
It's OK about how much Discovery repeats what they say concerning 15 million. We have to make exceptions for Gen Z and the short attention span, and the education not received for paying attention to feelings and colored hair. It's a level that Gen Z will never reach. Notice how many are representing while they are at "work" there? ZERO!! lol.
If that's it, he has a bad agent. He could threaten to leave and the show would die. I'd be asking closer to 1 Million per show. Discovery owns everything on TV pretty much. They got the pockets for it.

U guys really think Parker spent $15m without proper exploration and drill maps of the whole property? It's all about drama for Discovery
I bet he starts starving to death soon... 🤣
Do you really think people don’t understand that?
Well, you know, they gotta make it a little exciting for people
You mean this isn’t actually reality TV? My whole life watching “reality tv” is shattered. It’s all a lie. Is my life even reality?
The scripted drama is why I personally got rid of cable. I loved this show….but the blatant unnecessary drama was too much

One thing that would make this show awesome is stop the drama and get to it. All we care about is how much he got out that’s it. 😂
Exactly. Save the drama for your mama and show us the damn gold! 😂
But they want to drag it out ..... and they will for years...
Wouldn’t the gold in tailings have mostly washed to the bottom after 35 years of rain? Should’ve tested the bottom layers
Nah it doesn't move that drastically. You're talking thousands of years for that kind of migration
well done parker for having the balls to go for it im shore your grandad is watching over you and is so proud

Discovery can make an hour long show about Parker taking a dump.
$15 million dump
This dynamic is always true. Parker, Tony have to remove overburden for weeks on end -- this gets EXPENSIVE.
Only then, they can begin to sluice, sluice, sluice, sluice -- right up until the ice comes. What a thrill, every year.
Thats a massive property ..
How much did Parker pay for it again ????
Parker can lease part of the land to other gold miners and take a cut of their profits, like Tony Beets did to him.
Lease it to Tony. That would be full circle
Next Episode Parker hit big and haters will cry
You read the script too?
It's kinda funny how 10$ a yard is profitable in gold mining. Might as well dig and sell gravel - it costs about the same..😅
What’s the weight of one yard. How do you compare cost per yard vs ton? Just trying to put in perspective I know
Correct , but what is the fun in that?
They need it all for reclamation... but he could sell bags of paydirt...
Selling the gold from 5 thousand yards of dirt has to be easier than selling 5 thousand yards of rock or gravel..
@@daddyoh63 good point
Pressure makes diamonds. If anybody can do it, it'll be Schnabel.
Parker don't give up life is hard but when it pays off it's worth it
Well, i wonder if the man who sold him the claim knew something and was like "time to sell"...

No he doesn't.......any mining land is not allowed to be used as any kind collateral, that land is rented from the government. The land he actually owns is tiny.
Yea but his 20 mil in equipment can. Any bank worth a shit would finance him.

When I take samples of .. anything.... I take more than one. And not in the same spot.
I don't know why they don't blast the unthawed ground I've always wondered this 🤔
Coz stripping a chunk of one of the cuts big enough to get started doesn't make for good drama
15 million for 7000 + acres is a bargain
awh poor Parker, He had the world handed to him, He can't fail if He tried. I stopped watching this show a long time ago, it's all drama, why watch, when you can do yourself.
Should have bought a surface miner with a conveyer arm. Stop pushing dirt, just grind it, lift it and truck it out.
He should be using scrapers to strip the overburden. It would be faster and cheaper. Use the dozers to just rip.
scraper op here, agree a 12 team push-pull crew would take a day or two to strip it all in ideal conditions ie dry ground. Scrapers do not perform well in muddy or wet conditions, they slide around too much.
It was not oke Parker, how you threatened Brennan, you need to give him you're apologies.
Strip one deep spot to start 🤷♂️
Parker is in the wrong business. He needs to have an oil refinery. With all the heavy equipment in the area he should supply the fuel.
Stop saying hes going broke

Why does everyone hate Parker 💀
Because he has no idea what he is doing. He is making more money off of others people assessment hence why he is still a junior miner
Because he has a strong family that shaped him to be a good hard working man....Parker is a role model
He's a good guy. I don't like him because he looks identical to my best friend that knocked my woman up lol.
