DESCRIPTION: (from Discovery's press release, February 2013) This past summer, Discovery Channel cameras rolled as the world's best-known deep-sea recovery team, Odyssey Marine Exploration (OME), successfully recovered approximately 48 tons of silver bullion from the SS Gairsoppa - making it the deepest and heaviest cargo recovery in history. SILVER RUSH, a new three-part series airing back-to-back on Sunday, Feb. 24 from 8-11 PM E/P, will tell the story of one of the greatest deep-sea treasure quests of all time. Narrated by Mike Rowe, the series will take viewers on board Odyssey's flagship, the Odyssey Explorer, as it launches its most audacious operation ever -- locate and excavate three shipwrecks worth as much as a billion dollars all in one season.
