Discovery’s Gold Rush returns for a 16th season on Friday, November 7, 2025 at 8pm ET/PT. Season 16 arrives as gold prices soar and the short mining season continues to be super competitive.
Returning miners include Parker Schnabel, Tony Beets, Kevin Beets, and Rick Ness. Season 16 will find the miners discovering nearly $100 million in gold, setting a new Gold Rush record.
Discovery offered this description of season 16:
“After the most disappointing season of his career, mining mogul Parker Schnabel is determined to reclaim his throne. Scaling up to a massive operation with over 60 machines, four wash plants and a bold new team structure, Parker is burning through over $100,000 a day in operating costs. If his gamble pays off, he could see the most lucrative season of his 15-year career.
Fresh off a record-breaking season, ‘King of the Klondike’ Tony Beets is chasing an even bigger goal this year. An early-season strike delivers $500,000 in just one week but rising family turmoil and a record number of crew firings threaten to derail his empire. Meanwhile, eldest son and second-year mine boss, Kevin Beets is determined to double last season’s gold total and prove he’s ready to lead his own operation.
After hitting the jackpot last season, Rick Ness starts this year with no water license, no claim, and only half of his crew. A bold wager on a new piece of ground offers him a chance at redemption. But with mounting pressure, dwindling resources and a skeleton crew, Rick must turn things around or risk selling everything, leaving millions of dollars on the table.”
