Popular Post Smigo Posted November 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2022 Hey guys. Been waiting to get out for a while. Some health issues but finally out! Did a drive to a place I love from years ago. Awesome day weather wise. Loved it. I down graded due to my health but any day swinging a detector to me is bliss, especially where I went. See nobody, hear nobody and all alone. In my element. Used the Garrett 24k with the 6" and it cruised on half Sat, 7 sens Audio Boost 2. Dug heaps of targets, several surprised me up to about 8" deep for their size. Damn lead. ๐ Ended up with 2 Specimens, 1 id guess from experience has close to 1/2 a g, the other lucky to be .1 and a tiny .1 bit free gold. No record breaking but was a great day. Was really surprised though how the 6" handled the area. Expected to be running it around 5 to below. Tried above 7 and other settings but just a little too chattery and picking up too many real little hot rock chips. Its amazing with this just what 1 step down sens does. 80% vanished and it ran so much better than on 8! Anyway, didn't get richย ๐ but was a ton of fun. Drive in. Big drop off to the right. Nearly there. Arrived and the spot. Good fun and happy I can still swing something. ๐ 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasong Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Interesting, nice to see some photos of various Aussie terrains. Seen a lot of nuggets but no so much the environment you guys detect in other than closeups of ground. Nice specis too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aureous Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Nice! I miss my 24K.... thinking about upgrading my coin/relic machine to a Nox800 so I still have a VLF unit capable of detecting tiny gold in mild soils. But the 24K still is in my mind, the best VLF gold prospecting detector ever built. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those eucalyptus werenโt weeds?ย ๐ itโs funny seeing those as native plants, looks like a nice place and some nice specimens! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
