  1. G'day all,

    I'll be visiting the Gold Basin area for the first time soon...have a few questions for those members that know the area.

    1.) Are there any hotels/motels close to the area?

    2.) Restaurants....fuel?

    3.) Camping allowed?

    Open to any feedback regarding metal detecting in the area. Would be great to detect with someone for a day if anyone is interested. I belong to a number of clubs and have a private claim near Wickenburg....so open to sharing as well.

     

    Cheers,

     

    Will

  2. "Hej nugetWill

    if you could detect a small piece of metal foot deep with 2300 thats the best detector ever made.

    I wish u kept it. I know i would."

     

    I was living in Australia at the time. Sold my 2300 and 5000 before leaving Aussieland. Purchased a 7000 here for Arizona. I've told that 2300 story to a number of operators who I believe,  deep down,  dispute my story, but it's true.....the other side of the coin is that I never found more than a 10  gram piece of gold with the 2300, although I did find many pieces...)) As folks will tell you on this site an others, ground mineralization, orientation of the target, settings and a slew of other variables play into finding targets....

  3. I too still dream of finding that really big nugget, this dream was initially just finding one, now I have all the steps just prior to finding it memorized...eg: initial broad signal, at least a foot down, I lift a full shovel of dirt that's really HEAVY....I sit next to it for a few minutes before uncovering it so I can let my mind run wild with all the possibilities and finally, I remove a bit of dirt from just a corner of the target and it gleams yellow in the sun......
