Gold Wars Downunder (2026–…)

Gold Wars Downunder follows three hardcore mining teams as they battle it out on the one patch of gold-rich-land to see who can unearth the biggest nuggets and the most gold in an epic made-for-television gold hunting season. 

The sale of gold is an important source of income for hundreds of thousands of Australians, including the men and women willing to risk it all, as they venture into some of the most dangerous and inhospitable territory on the planet - hoping to strike it rich.

The miners are our narrators and through them, and their specialist mining skills, we're drawn into the wider world of remote-area alluvial gold mining. The town of Clermont has estimated gold reserves of $A750 million and the gold price is trading at 10-year historical highs. There's a modern-day gold rush going on in the town of Clermont.
