- Synopsis:
Move over Alaska, the latest gold rush is in Ghana - Africa's second-largest gold-producing country - in the brand new series 'Jungle Gold'. Millions of dollars' worth of gold lies buried beneath Ghana's dense jungles, and determined miners from around the world seek their fortunes there. However, in Ghana, mining the gold is the easy part, keeping hold of it is where the challenge lies. With little money and everything on the line, rookie American gold miners George Wright and Scott Lomu beg and borrow anything they can to succeed, after losing it all in the 2008 U.S. real-estate crash. After securing $150,000 from an investor, the pressure is on to find gold to pay back their debts. Things seem to go well for the duo at the outset, but when they find themselves facing hostile, gun-toting competitors, illegal roadblocks and underground mining operations, the pair learns that in Ghana, gold mining can be deadly. Against stacked odds, the stakes have never been higher. - Actors:
