Questions About The Goldmonster 1000 From A Newbie

Recommended Posts

Hello !

Some news after 4 months with my GM1000 in France.

As I expected, it is very difficult in the French creeks because there is a lot of trash (leads, nails, scraps...) ! So, a lot of false signals... The GM 1000 really detects very small pieces, it sounds with 1 or 2 mm leads !

But i've found my first little nugget with the GM 1000 : 0.286 gr !

The detector also helped me locate cracks filled with trash that were good traps for gold as well.

In any case it's a lot of fun :smile:

I would have now a  opportunity to get a used GM1000 for 500 Euro.

As i understand you can not compare this detector to the GPX Series. Because of my job situation i can not go more than 2 Weeks to Tansania visite my friend there so i was thinking to go and make first a big research about the goldfields, mines and see if we are able to find any gold with a detector before investing more money.    

But what do you think??

If there is gold, can we find it with the GM1000?

Greetings Erik

Yes, the Gold Monster works and gold can be found with it. That’s not to say it will be if any use to you. Metal detectors are simply tools and the only way to find out if one works for a particular task is to give it a try. The problem is not the detector, it is in predicting the gold geology and the level of operator expertise at work.
