I watched this programme for years now I’ll tell you something if I was a business owner I would want Mitch on my team the bloke is 100% no moaning just gets the job done no matter what, all the way from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@EMTB17]

I agree Mitch is 100% the man. Cheers from California mate.

[@colinstorey5076]

Chris is right, it's been a privilege and a pleasure to see that boy grow into a man. You got a great team Parker well done

[@bertram_oredrock]

Parker's crew are very dedicated and loyal. I hope Parker is generous and willing to keep this team together.

[@frostillity]

I remember when he used to have to build roads to keep his grandpas camp running for the season, now he’s a pro

[@churchbryan35]

I think Parker does it for the right reason...and to keep his grandfather's dream alive....

[@sparkynate91]

I'm sure Parker's grandfather is looking down on him and is so proud that Parker took his dream of being a giant gold miner and made it a reality! To think it all started with just an old man with a small claim

I met Parker at my job when I worked for the Wynn. He was sitting at a slot machine playing like 900 dollars. He was really nice and even stopped playing chatting with me for like 5 minutes.

[@scottscott6794]

Parker you have come a long way since the beginning I can't imagine what you go, through but I see the results continued success Parker you've got a great crew be safe we love you.

[@720Horsepower]

Love watching how hard these men and woman work

[@patrickhuot001]

This is probably the first season in the Yukon in which Parker doesn’t beat the previous season’s gold total.

[@Starrmiller]

Hey Parker!! Congratulations! I'd would just like to say, PARKER your Grandpa is Proud of you!

[@davidtomasetti8520]

I loved Parker’s Grandpa, and I know he’d be proud of what he has accomplished and who he has become

[@TobinOsusky]

Amazing!

[@vinnylamoureux1187]

Great to see his success. Many other people try as hard as he does and end up broke. Luck has something to do with it, no doubt, and brains have even more to do with it. Congrats, Parker.

[@richardwarries6057]

Luck has nothing at all to do with it. Dedication is the word. hard work many hours, making test, spend money before even start the job. Like Tony says pan and test before, ore else you go broke. And if you look at Freddys mine rescue thats what freddy shows each and every time. And that is something that all those, that went broke, dident do.

[@billjazzerbonito8817]

Dedicated crew

[@markogorman5210]

Great to see the revenue… but that’s a big operation which means surely he’s got some substantial cost to boot….

[@SirAvadah]

People hated on Parker but he by far the best imo suppose his grandpa helped alot in his younger days

[@cmdrglass5096]

I really want to see him mining in Australia or somewhere the ground doesnt freeze !

[@GrannyMae]

Is this season 14 totals?

[@icytat]

Would looove to see how you process your gold from the ore to the fine-sand gold particles. Would appreciate that 🙏🏽

[@JBSDRIFTS]

I believe he uses a shaker table

[@vinnylamoureux1187]

It is on granular form when it leaves the wash plant. It never was an ore. The ore gold miners have a completely different process that involves crushing the ore. In the case of Prker's crew, the hold , called placer gold, is stuck to rocks and the wash plant shakes and washes the gold off the rocks. Subsequent steps separate the gold from the sand to produce the gold that you see when they weigh it. Hope this explanation helps.

[@scotth9106]

there are videos or it, its a long complicated process, with lots rock grinding and chemicals

[@jessewhite8860]

[@prathamgodkar9448]

Along with gold

[@rodneylitton638]

Who do they sell their gold to and what do the end user end up using it for?

[@AnonymousTroul]

Probably they sell it to a broker in the Yukon. They resell it for investments, jewelry manufactures, central banks, electronics manufacturers, etc…

[@theend9494]

Parkers plant is a baby compared to the big players, there are probably more gold mines in the world than all the other minerals mines put together, I am from Western Australia, Gold and Iron ore kept me in a job for 40 years, Sales manager for a global mining equipment manufacturer, there will always be mining.

I always wonder how many overhead costs Parker has

[@davek4309]

So how much dirt did they sluice to get this amount of gold?

[@russellstoll4574]

How much did it cost to make that much all costs and labor

[@erincarlson4481]

I dont understand... the latest season of goldrush is still being played on TV so how can you have video saying this was the season ending total for this year? When it hasn't even been released yet? Makes no sense

[@MrTthompson115]

I don't believe this video is for this season.

[@3800TURBO]

Seen Parker in the que at McDonald's near my place in Aus. He knew I'd made him out so I said hello and left it at that. I ain't nosy so let him have his privacy. He's done well.

[@russellearley4442]

Parker not as generous as i would be. As long as hes wealthy and has a buffer he wouldnt be where he is without his outstanding crew.

[@chrishubbard64]

So can anyone tell me how the pay goes for his crew? Like, do they get some form of profit sharing, or an hourly wage, or what? Im imagining its a lot like crab fishing where you get a small percentage share, varying by rank and whatnot as that helps to explain why they are willing to go so hard and run such long hours in terrible conditions just to drag every last gram of yellow sand from the earth.

[@snowmann52]

I’m sure a nice salary!! As far as crab fishing goes guys make like 20-50 grand for maybe 2 months work, maybe 3 months!!

[@animalmother5287]

It's a show alot of it is fabricated so its difficult to say who actually is getting what

[@snowmann52]

@@animalmother5287 I disagree! Ever watch deadliest catch? At end of season or whenever Mike Rowe says and so so made 1.2 million dollars and each deck hand gets …. But yes they create story so people will tune in.

[@Paul-vf2wl]

It's interesting how the total amount of gold mined in the Yukon has been relatively stable for years but the totals for the crews on this TV show go up significantly every year to the point where Parker and Tony now apparently mine 25% of all the gold in the province.

[@earthconstructor]

Well in 2021 84,900 oz were mined from the Yukon so your a ways off on your 25%. Closer to 15-16% when put together. Also Mitch said in an interview that Parker’s operation was one of the top 5 in the Yukon so those numbers would probably be quite close. I hate the obvious inconsistencies this show has but gold totals does not appear to be one of them. Now things like Monster Red just suddenly appearing for Rick out of nowhere are quite obviously completely scripted.

[@Paul-vf2wl]
