The Minelab GP 3500 detector was released in 2005, and it was discontinued in 2006, replaced by the Minelab GPX 4000. The GP 3500 is a pulse induction (PI) metal detector aimed primarily at the gold prospecting market. The Minelab GP 3500 was the last and most refined of the analog PI models that Minelab produced, before making the shift to digital with the GPX 4000.
"The Minelab GP 3500 utilizes “Dual Voltage Technology” (DVT), which assists accurate ground balance and increases sensitivity
by overcoming the potential problem of super-saturated electro-magnetic fields in heavily mineralized ground. Like its predecessor, the GP 3000, the GP 3500 can handle heavily mineralized and salty ground conditions with greater ease than previous detectors, which effectively opens up NEW detecting areas. The new Low-Noise circuitry found in the GP 3500 results in a smoother threshold, enhancing your ability to hear faint signals caused by small and deep targets." Source: GP 3500 Owner's Manual
