Chacapamac Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Second year having fun searching for Gold & tranquillity. — First Year using a detector (Fisher Gold Bug Pro) and getting prepare for my first trip. Happy to find this community and hope to contribute... When testing the detector, I remark that passing over a gold target in “All Metal Mode” raises the “Fe3O4” levels significantly. I checked with silver & gold targets, and it’s obvious that it is the target itself and not the mineralization (targets are placed 2 feet apart on the same sandy soil. MY QUESTION _________________________________________ I thought the “Fe3O4” levels would rise only on a metal target, not gold???? — (I also test a metal target in the same condition...) Good Day to All! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_Hillis Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Hi Chac, When there are no iron mineral, the FE graph measures conductivity. It can be a handy target checker. good luck. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
