Some East Coast Nuggets Found By A Detector
Norvic replied to PG-Prospecting's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
Lovely gold finds from what sounds like a large very prospective area that has little access. Missed this thread in 21, much the same downunder here in my part of the woods, generally speaking it appears gold detecting operators do not make very good impressions on property owners, environmental groups or government officials whether "upover or downunder". As the gold price increased in the past and now, restrictions on our hobby land access will worsen. I say generally speaking as we are not all "tarred with that brush" but sadly I see no way of avoiding these issues. -

Stacked Spiral Coil Windings
Norvic replied to RONS DETECTORS MINELAB's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
That Trick X coil use not to stack on the 10" do you know what it is? Smaller diameter Litz? -
That`s sad but reality of the future. Up here in FNQ we were very fortunate, when our old ML dealer retired a few years back the fellow that took it over from him is a gold prospector and like our original gives top customer service. Of interest perhaps, our old dealer was recognised by ML as the then longest continual dealership of ML products, he started way back before the MLs first GS15000.

Aye, them too GJ for sure.
-
I`d be over the moon with todays detector and yesterdays legs😉
-
That was true even 40+ years ago, don`t get me wrong no way will I swap the 6K/SDC/Axiom/7K etc. for an old Deepseeker/6000D/RB7 etc. Steves Insane Settings are still the go.
-
Aye we sold them for around a tenth of their current value, thought it`d go on forever.......... our legs that is.... 😉
-
Aye them ML buzzwords, but the 6K used in either of the auto modes.... call them Geosense or whatever... tis a wee rattly but a SDC on steroids.

Gold Detecting, Mushroom And Berry Picking
Norvic replied to Sourdough Scott's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
Aye a man can`t live on gold alone, wild field FNQ Au mushrooms on cooking, sliced up with a sprinkle of salt, a good amount of pepper and cooked with butter......... mmhhhhhh it don`t get any better. -
The E1500 shoots way above its price of around 1 ounce, just hope Algoforce can maintain that price into your US hands and into the future E2500. Our market is but a small niche amongst todays mass economy of scale markets.

Patch Hunting In England With Old Detector Yields 2 Oz Nugget

I am going to get in before Reg..... that`s not a nugget😉 -
Where Are All The In-field Reviews Of The E1500???
Norvic replied to Aureous's topic in AlgoForce Metal Detectors
Tell me about it NK, don`t think we age taller, but it seems we have to go a lot higher to get up after a dig 😉. The sensitivity of the E1500 will be much appreciated by 4500 & 5000 users, especially if they have spiral coils already in their kit. -
Where Are All The In-field Reviews Of The E1500???
Norvic replied to Aureous's topic in AlgoForce Metal Detectors
True the QED has a control to select either depth or sensitivity, it needs it as it is a single channel Pi, the E1500 has two channels one for sensitivity and one for depth thus like most modern gold PIs. I know burying targets to test any detectors/coils ability is not a true indication of their depth/sensitivity/GB ability that undisturbed field gold is. I`ve found the E1500 is a very capable all-round gold detector that punches well above its cost, even by the time you add a battery and a couple of modern mono coils of around an ounce. The very first gold VLF I bought in 79 cost a little over 2 ounces. -
Where Are All The In-field Reviews Of The E1500???
Norvic replied to Aureous's topic in AlgoForce Metal Detectors
The E1500 has good depth on 0.5gram nuggets and up with the 12"Rnd Evo, like all detectors before it since year one the coil size determines its depth as much or more than the detectors technology, large coils for depth applies to all. Now if I was a younger fellow and could swing monster coils (anvils) I`d forget the claim the E1500. the 6K, the Axiom or any other detector are only for shallow small gold because that attitude just does not stack up out in the field. So if all you can afford is an E1500 and a small coil and a large coil plus you swing out on prospective fringe ground persistently, shallow or deep applying the above good sense positive attitude, chances are you`ll find enough to upgrade to say a ZVT. -
Have Detector Companies Hit A Wall
Norvic replied to RONS DETECTORS MINELAB's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
Age dictates to me a need for a lightweight wireless detector that uses non-chipped lightweight mono coils. An unchipped fixed GB option 6K is on track or if ML persists with chipped coils the E2500. -
Has Coil Technology Hit A Wall?
Norvic replied to Sourdough Scott's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
I don`t think so, can recall way back it was said the mono could not be improved on being such a simple coil, spiral monos brought the PIs right back barking at the Zs heels until X coil lifted it. Who doesn`t love the aftermarket coil on their 6K, imagine how much better it could be without that chip forcing aftermarket fellows to adhere to MLs marketing regime. -
Yeah there`s a reason why these areas are so difficult to get into, it just isn`t wise for local detector operators to broadcast either their locations and their finds or for Property Owners to repair the tracks. Nor wise to drive off the tracks either because every Tom, Dick & Harry will follow your tracks, and as Geof_J posted it isn`t wise to take out any sort of title as that just broadcasts where you are. Leave just footprints and cover your holes as best you can or you`ll be followed. All you need in QLD is a current Fossickers License and the Property Owners private permission to fossick on their land, as set out by that Fossicking License. That area is not too remote. Just the rambling of an old time FNQer, as Geof_J also posted tis an adventure take it as such and enjoy magic remote FNQ.

The lure of making big money by having lots follow your vids along with pumping your ego, is the go. I followed one for a bit because I wished to support but judging by the continual 'bombardment' on mobile by 'allied' 'followers' that one is making money. It is wise to follow none and not support what will turn to a corrupt pyramid type scheme when/if successful. Of course the great majority are just pie in the sky dreamworld stuff.

All Trents fault he nicked off to WA.
