Early look at Discovery’s ‘Bering Sea Gold’ reveals competition, nitrogen poisoning and more tension

Fans can get an early at the new episode of Bering Sea Gold with a new clip supplied by Discovery Channel.

Bering Sea Gold diver close up picLet The Gold Games Begin: Nome, Alaska. Time is running out for the ice mining fleet, and competition is on the rise. The lure of gold has already pitted one partnership against each other, will it infect others?

Here’s what fans can expect:

In Nome, gold fever is on the rise as the fleet races to find fortune before season’s end. One miner turns treacherous by leaking valuable information to the competition. Zeke Tenhoff battles nitrogen poisoning and a toxic partnership, while Emily Riedel suspects her “Dragon Slayer” maybe sinking the business.

Check out the new preview. Full synopsis of the show is below.

Synopsis:In the frontier town of Nome, Alaska, there’s a gold rush on. But you’ve never seen gold mining like this before — here, the precious metal isn’t found in the ground. It’s sitting in the most unlikely of places: the bottom of the frigid, unpredictable Bering Sea. And there are a handful of people willing to risk it all to bring it to the surface.For two million years, glaciers have been melting into the Bering Sea and depositing sediments rich with gold into its waters. As Nome’s ice pack melts during the summer, the isolated, ramshackle town of eccentrics and outcasts booms with excitement as pioneer gold seekers rush to get out onto the water. Miners dive and dredge to scour the bottom of the sea from custom built, barely seaworthy rigs — in a race to haul in as much gold as possible before the waters become too frigid to dive.

Bering Sea Gold illustrates a world like none seen before — one where the danger is palpable and the stakes are high. Success in the waters will give the dredgers the hope and means to continue — and maybe even make them rich. Failure could yield a vast array of consequences — from possible jail time to injury and even death.
