That's right! By un-ground-balancing the MAX. We ground balance our detectors to get them to run smooth and quiet. I set up the MAX to run very unstable........especially to iron. Usually my AT Pro balances in the 80-90 reading. To pick up the iron in the bedrock, I manually set the GB to 20. What a chatterbox...... unless I raised the coil above me, where it ran quiet.


You see, gold is one of the heaviest elements in rivers & creeks, and always settles in crevices, where the water turbulence wont move it, unless it is spring runoff. Black sands both magnetic and non-magnetic also are heavy, and tend to accumulate in the same areas where gold hides. So........find the concentration of iron in the bedrock, and you should be able to find the gold. I did today. :)

Nice color! Thanks for the tip! I'd wondered about that, detecting for black sands to know where to dig or dredge. Also thought of stuffing a powerful magnet here and there to see how much sand sticks to it, in areas the coil is just too big to get into.
 

What a complete load of..
 

Just a quick question, why didn't you film/show on the video the reaction of the detector when you got the hot spot? I watched just to see that part and it was never shown
