Plot Synopsis

RECLAIMED is a one-hour docuseries that follows two longtime friends and business partners, Alex Charvat and Kevin Gilman, as these expert builders and miners visit dormant mining claims to assess their current value and then negotiate for a share of the mine's profit in exchange for improving the property. With their unique backgrounds in engineering, mountaineering, mining and forestry, Alex and Kevin help wannabe prospectors and desperate homesteaders resurrect these claims of land. Together, they work to transform them into thriving mining operations and beautiful pieces of real estate worth more than they ever thought possible.

Hidden treasure is scattered across the country waiting to be claimed, but it's not buried out at sea or deep in the desert as most would think. Centuries-old mining claims today lay dormant all throughout the United States, with their potential riches in gold and other valuable minerals sitting right beneath the surface undisturbed. Gold prices are climbing at an unprecedented rate, and property owners from the mountains of Colorado to the desert of Arizona are cashing in on this golden opportunity. Whether it's reopening a long dormant mine believed to have billions worth of gold hidden inside, or helping a naive salesman navigate his new inheritance of 30 small mining claims, Alex and Kevin leave no stone unturned and no claim unexplored. But with their own money, time and expertise on the line, is it worth the risk of striking it big?

In the series opener, "Seeking Ore," Alex and Kevin are modern prospectors who look for business opportunities on old mining claims. Homesteader Judd and his family will need their help to re-open the mine, and build three much needed weatherproof structures before winter hits.
