Final Gold Tally for Bering Sea Gold Season Two



Christine Rose                700 ounces      $1,156,960
Wild Ranger                      84 ounces      $   138,835
The Edge                           46 ounces      $     76,028

As Christine Rose owner Steve Pomrenke put it, "Got a hundred people come to Nome Alaska, about two out of 100 might make more money than what they thought.  Three or four might make ends meet.  But the others didn't make nothing."

  2. The Christine Rose crew got 40 oz ($60K) for their summer work, although they only worked for 30 days or so because of weather.

    On the Gold Rush show, the Hoffman crew got paid 30 oz, 20 oz, or 10 oz for the whole summer. They had to work every day.

  3. Why is Bering Sea Gold called Gold Divers in the UK? Are we meant to be daft and not know anything about the Bering Sea and Nome being famed for the original gold miners setting up on the beach? I feel rather insulted that it's a different name as it's not like there's anything with a similar name to Bering Sea Gold in the UK
