In Western Australia's legendary Goldfields, three hardcore teams of gold prospectors are preparing to risk their dreams, futures and lives in pursuit of the ultimate golden reward.

`Dirt Dogs' Vern and Leon must uproot their operation, `Gold Gypsies' Chris and Greg face a big decision, and remote prospectors Henri and Kelli strike salt-lake gold.

Henri and Kellie face poachers and a dry streak. Also, the `Dirt Dogs' need to break new ground in order to stay in business, while the `Gold Gypsies' search for precious reef gold.
