Bering Sea Gold is a reality television series set in Nome, Alaska that airs on Discovery Channel, with reruns also airing on TLC. It is from the creators of the Deadliest Catch reality TV show.

Season 4 premiered on March 13, 2015.[1]

Background

The subject of the show is to follow boats equipped with various setups to achieve gold mining in a summertime, cold northern latitude, shallow water, ocean environment. The fleet each typically consists of a sluicing apparatus, a means of paydirt collection (dredge), and a cold-water-diving life support system. Conflict issues include choppy seas, poor underwater visibility, inconsistent fuel delivery, personnel issues, mining location rights, sufficient paydirt discovery, diver safety, and ocean-damaging equipment failures. Each season of episodes follow the current fleet of dredges.
