Behind the scenes facts about Discovery Channel's Bering Sea Gold

[post_page_title]Californians weren’t pleased[/post_page_title]
Bering Sea Gold takes place in Alaska, so it might surprise you to learn that Californians really weren’t happy when the show took off. That’s because dredge mining isn’t a hugely common practice in the United States of America. In fact, it’s fairly controversial. Because of this, many states have completely banned any form of dredge mining in their waters, and that’s exactly what the state of California did. However, when the show became popular, more and more people questioned this ruling and stood tall against the state to reinstate the practice.
