Two Goldbug2’s For Sale $600.00 I’ll pay for shipping. I’m wanting to sale my two Goldbug2 metal detectors, the both have the 10” and 6.5” coils, and I’ve found gold with both of them.

Possible settings for a nokta gold cruiser on crevices. 4980 4
Started by mikekeefe3@gmail.com
First time posting on this site, I have a question if anybody is using one of the gold cruisers, when they're doing crevice searching what setting are you putting it on It's hard to find something that's definitive or at least close for that matter. I know a really great spot of bedrock that I can crevice but I would like to use my detector to kind of cut some time out of finding nothing if you know what I mean, if anyone has some good settings that I can go with that would be super awesome and...

High power lines 3632 2
Started by dfazz247@hotmail.com
I'm heading to a GPAA property that has power lines on the eastern end. I just bought a MineLab GPX5000. Only been out with it once. Will the powerlines throw the machine for a loop, or will it be able to handle the situation. I currently have an 11' Double D and a 12'x15' Mono. I also have a VLF just in case. Thanks, Dean

Started by doylemac2@gmail.com
My wife and I just finished a month long prospecting trip to Arizona, using a Garrett AT Gold and AT Max. We hit a few claims in 2 different counties, Mohave and Maricopa. We detected the washes and got trash, of course. We detected hillsides, depressions, runoffs, etc.... and got lots of copper, lead, iron, and such in large and very miniscule pieces. More experienced prospectors have told us we are doing it correct since we find the very small stuff. It would be nice to have an experienced...
