Short answer. Yes, absolutely. D4g

Awesome line of posts re 6000 behaviour. It is a sneaky, sensitive & deadly little beast. We will all have our settings, & coil options, that we think do it for us. But I agree, full max sensitivity is the ticket, even when it is running a bit ratty as the good signals are often just a very faint whisper or hiccup in the threshold that do make themselves known. Knock back the sensitivity & you most likely won't hear those very faint ones.The rattyness kind of becomes part of the threshold. Depends how you mentally deal with & cope with that rattyness. It can become fatiguing at which point you may need to make some changes, or stop detecting. Coming back to that area when conditions may be better with less noise. It is very surprising how deep it will get small gold. D4G

Looks like he could do with a new pick. D4G

Nice pieces. Well done. D4G

I wonder how long it will be before you see the ML high end detectors on Temu? D4G

Yes, I agree with that. Same for me in the country I detect in. D4G

The 6000 with the 10x5 coiltek goldhawk is great for creek detecting. Wet or dry. The 10x5 coil is great for getting into those tight spots. Same size coil as what Valens Legacy mentioned for the nox 800 but that is a DD. You didn't say what coil you would use on your nox. Do you have the little 6"? That would also be good but again is a DD. The standard 11" isn't overly favourable although it is plenty sensitive enough, but its size & open web design restricts it depending how rough the ground is & is also a DD. The goldhawk on the 6000, being a mono, has that deadly edge sensitivity as does the 8" on the SDC. You are spoilt for choice. D4G

Or things could keep getting worse. I hope not. Gold in NZ$ is now 4665.00 D4G

Not by much though. I used to use the gold monster as my shallow water bedrock creek detector. Not any more. The 6000 proved itself to me there. So much so that my gold monster sits sad & lonely back at home these days. The 6000 isn't too shabby on the tiny surface dwelling bits that is the gold monsters bread & butter gold but give the gold a slight bit more size & weight & depth & the GM will not see it & the 6000 will scream on those all day long. And It doesn't have to be too much bigger either, just deeper. The 6000 & 10x5 Goldhawk loves them. Got my vote. D4G

Gold Monster doesn't see them as deep as the 6000. That is a fact. D4G

Nice show of colour mad fish. Well done. D4G

Glacial deposits can be a very mixed bag of material from one area to another with no consistent rational reasoning as to where any gold will be in those layers of material. Not really layers but just a jumbled mess with gold scattered throughout the material. Unlike stream deposits that has its own rules due to gravity & movement. D4G

Gold is now NZ$4507.00 an ounce & silver is NZ$1807.78 a kilo D4G

I wonder if the threat of WW3 has anything to do with the spike in gold & silver. Silver was up NZ$ 109 a kilo. The world is a mess. D4G

I am not a fan of Tyler Mahony. All those gold rush type programs I take with a pinch of salt. Especially the Aussie ones. So much of them are so obviously rigged & staged it is embarrassing. All for entertainment. As soon as I saw this I was calling BS, but it was refreshing to see that it was admitted she purchased the gold. D4G
