bloodgold2 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Looking forward to one for my son, and of course keen to have a play myself to see what it's got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hard Prospector Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Tried it out at the Vegas gold show this weekend, feels great with the little round puck coil but somewhat front nose heavy with the larger stock coil......for sure lite for a Minelab. Rep assured everyone it would be out very soon, I for sure want one. Kevin Hoagland has been field testing it for some time and is supposed to have a story/report out in GPAA magizine in the near future (I was told by the GPAA staff at the show) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalochip Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 This looks like a great travel detector. I'm very curious how it will handle mineralization. It sure looks like a winner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please contact your local dealer for specific price and availability information. We will be doing our best to get detectors into the hands of our valued customers as soon as we possibly can. Hey Minelab. I believe you have a typo there. I imagine it`s meant to say "expected high demand" . cheers Dave http://www.minelab.com/usa/customer-care/product-notices?article=309482 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted April 26, 2017 Author Share Posted April 26, 2017 I think they mean from dealers, who after all are the first "customers" in line for the detectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 OK Chuck, I just got my May issue of ICMJ's Prospecting & Mining Journal, and there, on pages 16 and 17, is a full color two page ad for the GM1000. With absolutely no new information that you did not already know. Well, unless they have not mentioned it uses a 24-bit signal processor. I don't recall seeing that before. But hey, it is a print ad! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Steve Thank You. I guess a little of something is better than nothing. I could blow up the picture and hang it on the wall. What happen to the saying a picture is worth a thousand words but this one says nothing. Oh well thanks again. I think the guys at Minelab have all put super glue on their lips.

Reno Chris Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 The 24 bit processor is mentioned in one of the mine lab videos. It is also mentioned by Kevin Hoagland in the video of last week's GPAA gold show broadcast, so zero new info in the ad which was not already known. However it's not too much longer and the folks who are not talking will be freed to speak. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunk Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 The processor is also mentioned in the GM1000 brochure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
