GPX 6000 On Specimen Gold

[Steve Herschbach]

Gerry was asking about the GPX 6000 on specimen gold a while back, and my response was "not to worry." Here is a link to an Aussie forum post, from a bloke using both the GPZ 7000 and GPX 6000, to recover hundreds of gold specimens.

Bottom line, if you want a PI detector for specimen gold, the GPX 6000 is the one to have. Only a hot VLF will hit smaller stuff, but overall a VLF can't get the depth the 6000 gets.

The other thing is the post under it where a guy posted his screenshot from Coiltek saying they are going to make 6000 coils 🙂

Approved coils from Coiltek, with no cutting and pasting needed, would go a long way to making lots of us happy!  Hopefully Nugget Finder gets to play also. It was them that came out with the first approved aftermarket coil for the GPZ after all.

If there ends up being a wide range of aftermarket coils in 2022, at prices similar to what we are seeing from Minelab (hundreds not thousands of dollars per coil), then it will make the GPX 6000 versus whatever else debate pretty much a dead issue.

Compared to the GPZ coils, the GPX 6000 coils look to be very easy to manufacture, as long as Minelab provides the chip to make them.

That's just jaw-dropping. That couple hit the jackpot.

Un-believable gold.

I think Gerry's mind is at ease about the 6000 and specimen gold.  Hopefully Gerry will post a picture or two. 😉
