Agreed, not a meteorite. Dolomite perhaps? Here are some simple home tests you can do if you suspect you may have found a meteorite: http://meteorite-identification.com/streak.html

You're right, Tom; and it sure sounds like the summary section of the patent is describing the 3 overlapping feedback systems employed in the GPX 6000 to eliminate signals produced by changing mineralization and EMI. And hopefully the new method of discrimination for a future PI/ZVT hybrid detector, since it's oblivious to soil mineralization, will be accurate to full depth. Wouldn’t that be something.🤔

OMG I can’t wait!!!

Nice going!

Lunk replied to Steve Herschbach's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
Since I won’t be needing a harness when swinging the GPX 6k, this wearable speaker is the perfect solution for me. -

Minelab GPX 6000 Full Reveal In February 2021?
Lunk replied to Steve Herschbach's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
All you really need is a Bluetooth 5.0 aptX low latency speaker; plenty to choose from on Amazon. I already got one for the GPX 6000, and it also works great with the Equinox. -
Nice haul, congrats to you both!

One more thing: Debbie said that Doc's Detecting is already busy designing the protective covers for the GPX 6000. TIA Doc, you rock!

I think most use the wife.😀 -
That would be nice!

When I say big gold, I mean multi-ounce to multi pound nuggets. Guess you'll have to do some side by side comparisons when you get one. Looking forward to your report!

Get a second job, mortgage the house, get an auto title loan...whatever it takes, man!🤣
-
I don’t think that will happen, just by virtue of ZVT vs PI; ZVT simply has more grunt on the big stuff.
-
It’s my opinion that it will replace the Z only on small to medium sized gold at depth, but certainly not on large nuggets, as the Zed is raw power, while the 6000 seems to have the edge on sensitivity. And with the lighter weight, the 6000 will excell at patch hunting, especially with the 17” mono. It will be an excellent meteorite hunter as well.
-
Good point, but I have found stuff that small with audio smoothing on - nuggets down to 0.06 of a gram, and even smaller bits of iron/steel. One has to remember though that that small of gold isn’t nearly as conductive as even smaller bits of iron.

Thanks Gerry. I'm definitely looking forward to helping you train folks on Minelab's latest, exciting offering.

That’s correct, Jason, However, I did not try the Salt Cancel mode.

Looks like we should all chip in to charter a flight to Dubai, so that we can buy the African market packages. 🤪 -
GPX 6000 Draft Manual & Internal Photos

Debbie confirmed to me today that we get one battery. -
I'm guessing it saw the flake at 2” to 3”, and the space rock at 4” to 5”. Of course, the 11” mono loop should get more depth than the 14” DD.
