Sourdough Scott Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 It is a 100 to 1. Some places 100 trash to nugget. And some places 100 nuggets to 1 trash. But that has only happened a few times. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Au4Gold2 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 Yes, trash is part of the job ! Won't know whats their unless you dig it....and in the last few weeks I can surely confidently say the disc mode is NOT a sure thing...I generally run disc until I find my first and second piece...than I dig all. And than hit it with different coils for shallow and deep targets. Found three nuggets today and a 1833 Providence Rhode Island hard times token ! Good day indeed.... :) You gotta luv it.

Reno Chris Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 totally random. Some places low - maybe 1 or 2 trash to one of gold. Other places 40 or 50 to one. It just depends. The places with low trash ratio tend to have very few targets overall and you can swing for a while with no targets at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1515Art Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 This was my day here in beautiful Sonora, the weather was perfect, so nice in fact I decided to Leave the gold in the ground for tomorrow. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozgold Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I wonder if this post will dry up quite quickly when the discrimination coil come out for the 7000 and everyone is just digging up nuggets. then there would be no ratio. Not sure if I could walk away form a positive target signal in the ground. so I recon I will just still dig everything. My ratio is approx 25-1 ozgold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt it will discriminate out lead and other non-ferrous targets, leaving us still digging bullets, foil chunks and perhaps some other non-ferrous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Au4Gold2 Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 I have never upgraded but if Minelab does come out with a machine that does disc iron out , I am upgrading for the pure and simple reason of life's to short to dig trash. Lead on the other hand has its purposes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
