And there is a chance BONZ will make $$$ with all the claims CEO has. Who knows, maybe they will start a reality TV where people from Vegas get to do a day trip to mine their own gold. That'd be a hit!

“Gold Rush” reality TV series mine near Fairplay eyed by Colorado environmental regulators
Colorado regulators scrutinize mining site connected to a popular Discovery Channel reality show

A Colorado company linked to the Discovery Channel’s popular reality television show “Gold Rush” is facing scrutiny by state regulators for allegedly mining without a permit at a gravel pit near Fairplay along headwaters of the South Platte River.

Colorado Department of Natural Resources Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety records also show High Speed Mining razed 2.4 acres of forest adjacent to an eight-acre pit, which is a focus for upcoming “Gold Rush” episodes.

A state official inspected the mining site — two miles northwest of Fairplay along the Middle Fork of the South Platte — on Dec. 5 in response to a Dec. 1 complaint filed by an Iowa-based critic of “Gold Rush”.


The inspector documented heavy machinery, cleared trees, a heap of scraped-off soil above the river and several “settling ponds” beyond site boundaries. A Dec. 21 letter from division director Ginny Brannon warns High Speed that state mining commissioners — if they decide a violation has occurred — may issue a cease-and-desist order and assess penalties of $1,000 to $5,000 per day for violations.

Colorado mining regulators oversee permits and collect bond money that they hold to ensure re-contouring, re-seeding and other restoration of land hurt by mining around the state. In this case, state officials collected $21,110 — money they say is sufficient to restore the pit.
