My Eureka Moment - The Rest Of The Story

[Digger Jones]

Hi Steve,

Awesome finds! Thanks for sharing that story. Do you use any special method for cleaning your gold?

[Steve Herschbach]

This stuff muriatic (hydrochloride) acid followed by a short dip in Whink HF seems to do the trick. Details at http://www.detectorprospector.com/forum/topic/404-best-way-to-clean-gold/

Excellent rest of the story, sounds like steve was in a dream that just kept getting better.

That was a very good example of the 7000 in that type of gold for sure.and the 2300 also. I have a grin on my face that will be with me for a while. Sneaky feller isnt he? Paul harvey would be proud.

Thanks for that awesome story! That sounds like one special detector for sure.

Wow, great write up Steve. Evidently a fine machine and beautiful gold. I admire your treatment of the property owners. It really does all come together some times.

WOW nice gold and great story. Wish I owned a 7000 and it was my claim. But oh well my day is out there. Congrats!!

Exciting Steve

I'll definatly be hitting a few areas where we found similar porous type gold!

I'll also give a few leader breakdown's a good look with the new beast.

The smallest speck can sometimes lead to the biggest find.

Since the release of the 5k with its fine gold timing I've been able to use the detector for electronic loaming.

I made my 2 biggest finds doing this, both of them multiple kg species at different locations.

The 7k excites me as now I can do it much quicker with a 14in coil over a 8in that I had to use on the 5k, and still retain the depth on larger gold whils doing it.
