(Los Angeles, CA) – In Nome, Alaska, the summer gold mining season is heating up, and the miners are bringing new tactics, exploring new territory, and deploying all new technology in order to mine the most gold ever in BERING SEA GOLD history. A new clash of the titans has erupted with all miners driven to secure their spot at the top. The all-new season of BERING SEA GOLD, premieres Tuesday, September 17th at 9 PM ET/PT on Discovery Channel.
This season, Shawn Pomrenke feels the pressure from his newest competitor, Ken Kerr, as he tries to stay atop Nome’s gold mining heap. The threat to Shawn’s reign is looming as Ken’s 600-ton gold-digging behemoth is primed and ready, dwarfing everything currently on the water. The pressure is on Shawn to get his own mega-dredge monster on the water as soon as he can. Also, Vernon Adkison makes his return to the Bering Sea with his custom-built ‘Gold Ship’ as he sets out to prove the ship can successfully mine the gold grounds. But, challenges arise early as he tries to navigate his dredge 1000 miles down the treacherous Yukon River.
Emily Riedel, the most successful female dredge owner in Nome, sets her sights on an even bigger payday than last season, but she faces many tough obstacles including a close call that could cost her to lose her entire dredge to the Bering Sea forever. In addition, Kris, Brad and Andy Kelly are coming off their best season ever and are ready to make their lofty gold mining expectations a reality. They return to the promising ground at The Bluff but Kris is dead set to lead his family into the future by claiming remote grounds they can call their own. Going up against life or death decisions, the crews will be challenged in more ways than ever before, but it’ll be an all-out race to winter to see who will lead the pack and earn the title of top miner in Nome.

When does season 11 air in UK
Don’t ever stop filming Bering Sea Gold!!!! This has been a long wait for a favorite show!!! Didn’t like the hold up and the lack of decision as to whether or not Bering Sea Gold would ever been seen again…..this is a terrific series! Looking forward to years of this series….thank you for picking up the show again….don’t drop it ever!!
One of our favorite shows. We have it set to record, as we travel and want to make sure we do not miss an episode. So glad it is back!!
Absolutely will be watching
Yes, been waiting all summer for the show to air with updates for discovery which is my only complaint. Excited to watch this season!
Absolutely going to be watching. Cant wait to see the Fighting Kellys shenanigans lol!
The Kellys are in Nome, filming “Bering Sea Gold, Farewell To Ice” right now. It’s purported to be the last “Ice” season to air. I know this because Brad told me. I am owner of original “Reaper” dredge. I bought it from them 3 years ago. They still use it for filming, but I use it when filming is complete. They are good men and I am proud to call them my friends. I’m 99% sure “Bering Sea Gold” will continue for some years to come. So, keep watching!
