About the show

Mine Hunters is an American documentary-style adventure and reality television series that premiered on the National Geographic channel on January 19, 2016. It is produced by RDF USA. The series is set to have eight one-hour episodes.

Well-known to people in his industry, United Kingdom gem hunter Guy Clutterbuck assembled a specialist crew to undertake a mission to search for and, hopefully, find the world's rarest and most precious gem stones. This search will take them around the globe to the most remote corners where the small scale gem mines can be sourced. Their approach to mining is different from the shady business that often ensues, as Clutterbuck is a proponent of ethical mining. The specialist squad will work together with local miners in the hand-dug artisan mines by permission of the local authorities and/or land owners, and will then share the profits, if there are profits to share. Guy Clutterbuck has over 30 years of experience in sourcing and selling precious stones all over the world, and in each episode his leads will bring the crew to one place to search for one specific gem. These locations include Greenland, where arctic rubies can only be mined during its short summer, Sri Lanka, where a very special type of sapphire can be found, and Zambia – for the purest of emeralds.

I am a gem geek and love this show. My husband and I watch it and now one of our grandchildren watches. It's awesome. I will be quite sad if it's not renewed

I never watch TV. I gave it up. Then my roommate pulls me in one night and I was hooked for the rest of season one. This show is pretty [censored] good for me to sit on a couch for an hour. Love it, please bring back. Sincerely, future geologist.
