The GM2000 From A Mild Soil Users Perspective
dig4gold replied to phrunt's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
Here we have mineralised soils creeping back again into the Benign & very mild soil conditions discussion that Phrunt is focusing on with his testing show & tell. The beauty is that at the push of a button all can be changed to make you all happy for your ground conditions. Love, peace & happiness. 🐝🌻🦋🐞🥰 D4G -
The GM2000 From A Mild Soil Users Perspective

But ground conditions matter big time out in the goldfields & shine a whole new light on the real reality of trying to detect gold in situ out in the wild. Not testing in areas of none gold condition grounds where the dirt is going to be very different. What Phrunt needs to do is now repeat these same "tests" at his gold ground locations & see any difference. I am of the believe that he lives a few hours drive from these & for his own convenience in doing these "tests" in his own back yard, so to speak. He is going to a lot of effort in doing these for viewers who may take away something from them but is it going to be the same out in the gold fields. There will always be the battle of what people believe in the differences in mild ground verses hotter ground settings & the results. You see the arguments all the time & it isn't going to change. Phrunt has stipulated his testing is in his mild ground conditions & that he knows nothing else & says those in hotter ground will not get or see the same result. So those of you with the hotter ground can take on board what JP says on the matter. He will know. Any way. Happy New Year to all. D4G -

I reckon his mate JW beat him to it with his earlier GP, GPX's, Zed & the 6000 & all the various coil combos he used. D4G -
Minelab don't want you to have the freedom of control we used to have so they can sell you whole new detectors with factory internally set settings at moonbeam prices to do the same job an existing detector that you could externally adjust to get the same results as the new detector. Or swapping out a coil or two. Minelab mining the miners. But that's good business apparently. D4G

How far away are you Norvic? 😉 Accurate discrimination has been the dream for decades. One would think/hope is could have been achieved by now. I doubt it ever will, but never say never. I have lost count of the number of people who have asked or said to me, can't it just pick up gold? Don't we wish.... D4G

I can feel a pissing competition coming on. 😂 I don't have a 2k but went out for a few hours yesterday afternoon with my 1k. I know its bread & butter is bedrock scrubbing, literally. So I did just that. Scrapped off the moss & dirt overburden with my pick & then scrubbed the schist bedrock cracks & crevices with a dish washing scrubber brush. Occasionally having to rip out the cracks with my little scrapper. Only had 9 tiny bits at this stage but ended up with 17 for just .19 of a gram. Like I said, I'm in for a pissing competition with the 2k for fly shyt gold.😂 Any takers?? Just trying to wave the flag for the 1k. 👍 D4G

It was a bit over the top though & not realistic in the real world. D4G

No, you are right. Because Reg would be straight up & not follow the BS script he would be told to follow. D4G -
