Over 55,000 Canadians join the hunt for gold as first $30K bonus prize drops in Dawson City, Yukon

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 18, 2025) - A treasure hunt for more than $1 million in gold is capturing the imagination of Canadians and the momentum keeps building. Just weeks after launch, the Great Canadian Treasure Hunt has become a coast-to-coast phenomenon, sparking debates, exploration, and clue-sharing across the country:

  • 55,000+ subscribers have joined the hunt and signed up for clues
  • 430,000+ website views recorded to date
  • Online forums and threads buzzing with maps and theories

"This is a modern-day gold rush," said Anthony Vaccaro, President of The Northern Miner Group. "The response has been overwhelming; Canadians are engaged and excited to solve the riddles. With the first of 12 bonus prizes now live in Dawson City, we're taking the hunt to its next stage and can't wait to see what Canadian treasure seekers discover."

The Northern Miner, the organizer of the hunt, is excited to announce the release of the first bonus prize kicking off a regional hunt in Dawson City, Yukon, the historic heart of Canada's Gold Rush, where a prize representing six one-ounce gold coins is hidden, valued at more than CAD$30,000 as of the spot market gold price on September 16, 2025.

When first announced, each bonus prize was valued at $27,729. Today, that same prize is worth more than $30,000, reflecting gold's steady climb. The grand treasure has also risen in value and is now worth over $1.1 million. These increases underscore gold's enduring role as a hedge against currency debasement, and a reminder of why precious metals remain essential in uncertain times.

Monthly Prizes Connect to the $1M+ Gold Hunt

Twelve bonus prizes (each representing six one-ounce gold coins) will roll out over the next year, revealed through new monthly stories and videos. Every release carries two layers of mystery: clues pointing to the regional bonus prize and the $1+ million grand treasure. Together, these releases will ignite fresh debates and theories while inspiring people to reconnect with the country's history of adventure and discovery.
