To,, lolGotAU, I was using the Avantree Torus and had the earbuds in. Very smooth and I heard just one direction spike through the threshold when I first heard the signal. It was not repeatable.

The depth of this nugget was 14.5".

My deepest nugget was with the 17" at 15". Second deepest was with the 12x7 this nugget in my most recent thread at 14.5". OVERALL I am getting more deep nuggets with the 12x7. Does that clarify it for you?
-
The 12x7 is by far the most stable coil out so far for the 6000. This is just my observation as I hunt for gold full-time for a living with my 6000 & 5000 for two years now. Every day use tells me a lot of data and my deepest nuggets since having my 6000 have been with the 12x7 except for two nuggets. Both of these were with the 11" and 17" Minelab coils. Anyone know when the 10"x16" will be released.?

I took a good friend to The Dragon's Lair to teach him how to find gold with his brand new GPX6000 and within an hour he had found his first nugget with it. He is excited to find more and we are exploring a new area close to one of mine and GoldRyder's claim. After I got him lined out on hunting with the 6000, I reworked my patch that has given up hundreds of nuggets and just pulled one tiny piece of gold out. I couldn't pull anymore gold out when I was getting ready to leave, so I focused heavily on very faint iffy signals that did not repeat, and pulled out some iron tiny trash. I got a non repeatable signal and scraped a thin layer back and heard a soft faint whisper repeating. I ended up digging a .63 of a gram nugget out shaped like a heart. It was about 14" deep maybe a little more. Damn this 6000 is impressive. I got it all on video and it will go up in about a month. I have the depth marked into my pick handle and will measure it soon. What a fine and impressive machine. Hats off to Minelab!

Watch GoldRyder break his 5 day skunk. His gold was very hard won. Congratulations buddy!

We have had lots of 1, 2 and 2 1/4 ounce nuggets come off one claim and the other claim has given up a 6 1/2 ounce solid gold nugget, so yes this coil has a purpose on my claims. It is also to seek out new deposits on our claims since it can punch so deep.

I went up to my claim yesterday and hunted a sloping meadow with my Gpx5000 and the 25" NF DDX coil and dug a few iron trash targets and then I got a signal that was the best signal of the day. I scraped a layer back and it got a little better sounding. What popped out was a 1.06 gram nugget, to my surprise. This was the first nugget I have found with this coil since I bought it in 2021 from Rob. I got it on video so that will be coming in a few weeks. When I got to my claim I realized I had left my bungee cord on another shaft with my 15" Evo. I had to swing that 3 lb. Coil on a sloped terrain without it. Not fun. Wore me out quicker.

Jeff, the nugget got stuck to the pick via the mud sticking to the pick when I was raking back the material. When I pulled the pick out and put it up on the ledge, I tapped the pick on a rock to free the mud in a spot I was aware of. This has happened before. Very common. Gold Ryder went to throw out a rock from his hole and it had two nuggets stuck to it from the clayish mud.

Hope y'all like this video. It was a miserable day of detecting. 🤣

I'm with Valens Legacy, I hate snakes and for me also, the only good snake is a dead one and I sure don't want to be loitering around a dead one either. I've seen first hand how that can get you into trouble. Mice and rats are another problem for me living out of a truck and tent. Making nests in my engine by the fuel injectors and chewing on lines and wires. My life the last year has been a constant battle with mice. When I am in Arizona I kill them and set them out for my coyote pack. I sure miss those four coyotes. 😆

Yes it is fully functional with everything with it that came with it in it's case.

Well, two of my claim partners and I headed up to obe if our claims to see how close we could get to it with the UTV's. We made it all the way in to it. We had to hike about a quarter mile of the last stretch as we always have to but we made it. Still a lot of snow in our dig area but the four of us made it work. I picked up in the spot I stopped last fall and since I could start at the face of the bank, I decided to move rocks on the surface and cut and dig straight down through the grass. I worked my way towards the bedrock and my hard work was rewarded with five nuggets. My hole was about four feet by three feet and right around three feet deep. It is very hard to see the accurate depth in the pictures. It was very muddy at first but then I broke through the wet layer and it became a little dryer. Three pieces of iron and five nuggets. Not bad. The first nugget weighed 1.39 g and all total 2.35 g. Not a bad day as this gold is selling for $100 a gram. Video will be coming very soon.

If there are any attorneys on this forum that are also gold hunters I would like to talk to you ASAP regarding a former claim partner who we bought out his shares in our claims. Thanks. 1-406-309-1009 Gold Seeker.

Here are a couple new videos. Back in Montana ended my Arizona winter with one ounce nine grams. Not sure if I had posted this pic yet. Anxious to get up to Gold Ryder's and my claims. I do believe I am going to purchase a Spartan game camera go-live to put up on our claim honey hole. We have a claim jumper/con man/theif/ scoundrel to catch and prosecute when we catch him. I will be glad to get back to finding gold.

Thanks Valens, it really sucks hiking up and down the side of the mountain to get to the meadow as the forest service has a gate up on both roads getting to our claim and getting a key requires too much government overreach to get it, so we just hike the 1/4 -1/2 mile in and out every day. It sucks.
