A new gold mining reality series airs in spring 2013

On March 13, Yukon Gold will hit televison sets across Canada, the United States and beyond. The reality series about gold mining in Canada will feature 10 one-hour episodes and will follow four mining crews in the North.

Ken Foy is the leader of one of the crews along with his best friend, Guillaume Brodeur. The other three teams are led by "Big" Al McGregor, Bernie Kreft and Karl Knutson. All the miners come from different parts of Canada: Yukon, British Columbia, Alberta and Quebec.

The show will run on the History Channel in Canada on Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT starting March 13 and will air on the National Geographic Channel in the U.S. and be picked up on the international scale.
