Goldfield Mode

This video "Nokta makro legend is this the deepest standard mode ?" www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr6XtgbqhIc appears to show the depth potential using the Goldfield mode setting.   

Also wonder how well Goldfield mode would be in mineralized wet sand at the beach for jewelry and alike?

Fixed your video link.

Any true gold mode is useless on wet salt beaches as they detect saltwater. If they are not set off by saltwater, then they really can’t be hot on small gold. The two are mutually exclusive.

Thanks Steve.

I suspect then that a Pulse Induction detector capable of handling the saltwater with a Pulse Delay under 8 microseconds would be capable of detecting the tiniest of Gold Chains and Jewelry alike, if such a detector exists.

Same applies to PI as VLF - to eliminate salt you eliminate small gold. Pick up small gold - you pick up the salt. VLF and PI are identical in this respect.
