PAY ATTENTION YOU LOUTS!!!! The third photo clearly shows the cap over the touch hole of a cannon. He has obviously found a cannon.

May the Ferrite be with you.

My hope for everyone here is that 2016 becomes your best year yet but not your best year ever. May God bless you all and your families. Including you atheists.

Best o' luck to you and yours LL. I'm narrowing in on your secret spot. I have it pegged as somewhere South of Orville, North of Sacramento, on the West side of the Sierras.

1. I am determined to find some gold that is still attached to the crust of the planet. with the bits of information and education that I high grade from this forum, some brilliant ideas of my own and a GPX7000 how can I possibly fail? 2. I resolve to reduce my 40% comments by 39%.

I haven't been that way In 10 years or more. Saw all the commotion and red lights so I drove on past without gawking. Would never have thought Mr. and Mrs.LL would be there to save day. It wasn't a good day for swimming.

Wasn't that a movie about seeing a nugget at the bottom of a detector dig hole?

S Scotts' post should have had a RATED PG 35 warning. I can't imagine what he'll come up with after 3 months of hard cold winter isolation if this is what happens after only 2 weeks.

Some body had better start saving up for a GPZ9000.

My feet are somewhat wider than they are long so I have a hard time finding good boots and I wear them until my bunions are showing. Been wearing Reboks this year with no complaints. My GPS is a cheap liquid filled Silvy.

Blatant child abuse. Plain and simple.

Steve H. You've been naughty in the extreme. I will be including an antique Fisher Gold Bug with your lump of coal. Santa.

On the other hand - how much would a person pay for a GPZ with reliably accurate iron discrimination? How accurate? 40% accurate? I would be willing to pay about the same as for the 7000 IF after the innards where designed by the geniuses, the rest of it was designed by prospectors.

If it gets you there and most of the way back It's approved. VA Paul made me think about being a bit more responsible and prepared- so I put a spare tire in my Jeep. As always, one thing leads to another. Now I need to come up with a jack and a lug wrench. This being prepared stuff sure takes a lot of thought and effort.

yup. sounds like Rucky Chuck. I road my horse through there years ago.

1515Art; If that is all that is wrong with your rig It sounds like a much better prospecting vehicle than mine. I would have replaced mine with something a lot nicer (something with a top and doors and a heater and breaks and wipers and fewer welds on the steering system and frame) but I bought a 7000 instead. We got spoiled up here the last couple of years being able to work the high country into late December. I might have some possibilities down in the low lands so I'm hoping my employer fires me.

"NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR AREA" so the site says. Guess I'll have to drive to Australia to watch it.

ZED = Zee Expensive Detector.

There ya go Spncer. one of the smart people. THNKs Steve

Probably 10 years ago + -. Called "Molecular Frequency Detectors". I have seen some convincing demonstrations with rods, and some spectacular failures, so i don't discount their use by some people. A long time ago, my father used a system were you put steel stakes in the ground, connected these stakes to a frequency generator and was able to locate high grade chrome pockets. C. Ralph could probably explain how this worked. I've often thought this could be adapted to nugget hunting.

Some time ago there were ads in mining J for such a thing. I saved them (in my wood stove) along with the ads for long distance locators made from transistor radio antennas and pocket calculators. A gismo that could read the speed of an electron around a nucleus would probably weigh more than a GPZ 7000 and cost nearly as much. PLEASE DISREGARD THE ABOVE as I am not a smart people. .

Dear Mr. Lunk; The last time I was able to get out detecting the ground was frozen and muddy below the frost, a cold wind was blowing snow off of the trees down the back of my neck and I had to brush the snow off of my Jeep and scrape ice off of the wind shield when I left to go home. In the interest of fairness and my mental health, I respectfully request that you refrain from such posts as the above or a petition for censure will be submitted to Mr. H. by myself and S.Scott. Nice work!

This world needs more Uncle Deathrays.

Did you notice the paragraph about one of the forum members?

Best o' luck to you J.
