The Minelab GPX 4800 detector was released in 2010 and was discontinued in 2012. The GPX 4800 was a pulse induction (PI) metal detector aimed primarily at the gold prospecting market but which also became popular also with relic hunters.

"Gold detecting is a fascinating and rewarding activity enjoyed by people all over the world. By getting to know your GPX Series detector you can become one of the many who find gold and valuable treasure on a regular basis. The GPX 5000 and GPX 4800 are high precision instruments incorporating Multi-Period Sensing (MPS), Dual Voltage Technology (DVT), Smart Electronic Timing Alignment (SETA), and advanced digital processing. The GPX 5000 and GPX 4800 will locate gold in all types of ground, especially highly mineralised ground conditions, with great efficiency. This manual is designed to help both the beginner and expert prospector get the best performance out of their GPX 5000 and GPX 4800." Source: Owner's Manual

Mon, 24 Dec 2018 18:22:42 +0000

The Nokta/Makro FORS Gold was introduced in 2014 and discontinued in 2016, replaced by the Nokta FORS Gold+. The FORS Gold is a 15 kHz VLF metal detector aimed primarily at gold nugget, relic, coin, and jewelry detecting.

"FORS Gold metal detector, with its features, design and accessories, is a professional metal detector developed based on gold prospectors' needs worldwide. FORS Gold metal detector has been designed to be extremely sensitive to the smallest nuggets. It has advanced settings which minimize the effects of highly mineralized soils and hot rocks frequently encountered in gold fields. It will find nuggets that other detectors miss at unmatched depths." Source: FORS Gold brochure

Nokta FORS Gold metal detector

GROUND TRACKING - Along with automatic and manual ground balancing, NOKTA FORS Gold Pro metal detector also offers ground tracking which tracks the changes in ground and automatically adjusts the ground balance to suit. The visible or invisible changes in ground affects the detection depth as well as the discrimination ability of the device so you can improve the performance of the device by activating this feature on suitable ground.
DIGITAL TARGET ID – ID MASKING - When NOKTA FORS Gold Pro metal detector detects a target, it displays the target ID on the screen and gives you an idea about what the target may be. ID Masking, on the other hand, enables you to search by ignoring unwanted targets. It provides ease of use by rejecting hot rocks and metals such as iron and foil.
DUAL LCD DISPLAY AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE - FORS Gold has 2 LCD displays – one on the system box and one on the handle. Dual LCD display and graphical user interface let you easily adjust the settings and see all the information you need on the screens. Once you adjust your settings on the LCD panel located on the system box, you can follow most of the information on the display in the front. This way you don’t need to go back and check the LCD panel constantly. This provides great comfort during searching.
ELECTRONIC PINPOINTING AND DEPTH INDICATOR - With NOKTA FORS Gold Pro metal detector, you can easily pinpoint a target with just the push of a button. As the target is approached in the pinpoint mode, the signal tone will get stronger and change in pitch and at the same time, the depth reading will appear on both screens. Pinpoint feature will save you digging time and enable you to reach your target faster.
VIBRATION MODE - Designed with the hearing impaired in mind, FORS Gold achieved a first with the vibration feature. Vibration feature is also ideal for users who do not want to use headphones in outdoor noise such as wind or waves.
BUILT-IN LED FLASHLIGHT - FORS Gold built-in flashlight offers great convenience by illuminating the scan area when searching at night or in dark. You will not need an external illumination device.
EASY USE AND ERGONOMIC DESIGN - FORS Gold is impressing not only with its electronics and software, but with its ease of use and ergonomic design as well. With its easy access settings, its widest scan design and its ergonomics which will not exhaust you during prolonged searches, FORS Gold is an indispensable detector for all detectorists.
LONG BATTERY LIFE - FORS Gold works with 4 AA Alkaline batteries that can easily be purchased anywhere and provides approximately 25-30 hours of use. You can also purchase the optional rechargeable batteries and the charger and charge your batteries at home or in your car.

The Garrett Goldmaster 24K metal detector was originally introduced by White's Electronics in 2018, and was still in production when White’s closed up shop in 2020. Garrett Metal Detectors subsequently purchased White's, and the 24K has the distinction of being the only White's model that Garrett decided was worth continuing to produce. All accessories like coils are compatible on both versions. The Garrett Goldmaster 24K is a 48 kHz induction balance metal detector aimed primarily at gold prospecting.

"Featuring a 50% increase in coil voltage over previous models along with an all-new XGB ground balance system, take your prospecting to new depths with the Goldmaster 24k. This machine represents a new generation of VLF detection technology, with features that both sourdough and greenhorn prospectors can appreciate. Starting with the industry-standard 48 kHz operating frequency, we’ve packed all the necessities into one package to put you on the gold. A large, backlit display shows you all the machine’s settings as well as valuable target information. The Target Graph at the top of the display shows Ferrous, Gold, and High Conductor ranges, which is mirrored with Target ID numbers ranging from 0-99. An all-new XGB ground balance system can handle mineralized ground unlike other VLF prospecting machines." Source: Goldmaster 24K brochure

Garrett Goldmaster 24K control panel

For advanced users, TracLock and Ground Grab are just a tap of button away. You can assign a ground balance offset in both TracLock or XGB modes. To help prospectors that prefer drywashing, sluicing, or panning, the Goldmaster 24k features a Ground Scan mode that can show you where valuable paystreaks are in streambeds and washes. The Goldmaster 24K offers 10 levels of adjustable sensitivity, adjustable audio volume with two levels of Boost, adjustable discrimination, vSAT, adjustable threshold, non-motion pinpoint, and a Tone ID mode. But don’t let that scare you if this is your first prospecting machine – this is a turn-on-and-go machine, with advanced features you can grow into as you gain experience.

SENSITIVITY – Set the sensitivity at a level that does not result in false signals from the ground. Very strong ground may result in the symbol on screen and a loud sound – this means the sensitivity is too high.
GROUND BALANCE – With the default setting, the detector will use XGB to automatically ground balance. Tap to lock the ground balance to the current setting. Tapping when the ground balance is locked will update the current ground setting to what is under the coil.
GROUND SCAN – Hold to put the detector into Ground Scan mode. The top bar displays the ground strength and the two digit numbers display the ground type (phase). Useful for tracing paystreaks.
IRON CANCEL – Tap to silence hot rocks, trash and mineral changes in both audio modes. Hold to select the Iron Cancel setting (1 bar is default). Note that this setting may decrease the detector’s sensitivity to very small gold, but is necessary in difficult ground conditions.
VOLUME and THRESHOLD – Tap to adjust the volume with the up and down buttons. Hold to adjust the threshold with the up and down buttons (“th” displays on screen). Set these to a comfortable level for your hearing and preference.
AUDIO MODE – With the displayed on screen, the detector is in “BEEP” audio mode (high tone = good target, low tone = bad target). The default setting (without on screen) is a traditional All-Metal audio mode with greater sensitivity to small targets.
SAT – SAT can smooth out ground inconsistencies. Hold to adjust it (“Sa” displays on screen, 2 is the default setting).
PINPOINT – Hold for non-motion pinpoint mode. In difficult ground this mode may be affected by mineralization.
BACKLIGHT – Tap to enable the backlight (this reduces battery life).
