brogansown Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 After clearing a patch with the Minelabs, it's a good idea to detect that area very slowly with the Gold Bug 2, as evidenced by the nuggets found this November in totally worked out patches. The larger specimen could have up to 6 grams in it and the bigger solid weighs in at 1.7 grams. I assume, of course, that the 7000 will find even more down deep, but I don't have one. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brogansown Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 LipCa, I usually use the Minelab 4500 with a 14 inch oval Commander coil, but recently have been using an old Joey coil. But I think next year I'll at least try my GP 3000 with that bigger coil, because the last time I used it, I was having good success with small nuggets.
