cool. have to check it out. There is another one on now, gemhunters. Seen the one on tanzanite. I thought it was good. They went down into the mine way down in there. Half mine or so. The main characters are pretty good. One guy is pretty funny on there. Nother one in Vietnam. Have it recorded havent seen it yet.

The prospectors were on all day Sunday. Looks like that's where they will be coming on. I got to dig with Steve Brancato last month in Georgia. We hit a few nice pockets.

My favorite show, but I wish they would chill on the fake drama. It seems the people are real, true prospectors, but they thrown in the "Gold Rush" drama. It would be a much better show if the did a bit more in depth explanation of the geology & minerals as well as more time at the shows showing what they sell etc. I guess Americans have become too dumbed down to appreciate anything outside of Keeping up With The Kardashians mentality.
I've become such a rockhound due in part to this show, that I left my gold club outing yesterday to go dig for corundum and lapis! The corundum was great, but the lapis still alludes me.
Good show. I hope they can expand it to includes other parts of the US. Benitoite, Sapphires, etc.

I have DirecTV and the Weather channel where Prospectors was on has been dropped. DirecTV wants more money because they contend that the Weather channel was airing too many reality shows and not enough weather.

You got it backwards - TWC wants 1 cent more per subscriber to bring up the retransmission charge to Directv to around 14 cents per subscriber. Directv does not want to pay the extra because of the reality shows. Lee #1
