    Target size for minelab PI's?

    Best spots on a mountain?

    My brother is part owner in a tertiary gold mine in the Sierras. We have hunted the tunnels with some success with our detectors. I am thinking that the sides of the mountain below the mine should have some gold that washed out of the old river and is on its way to the new river 1000' below...

    most inpressive

    I have been testing my Ifinium on some gold samples that I have. I have a 1.1g nugget and a small flake that is probably .1g. The 8" coil seems to be better than the 10x14 dd. I can detect the .1g flake when it is basically on the 8" coil. This is more than I expected actually. I took the...

    infinium coils?

    I just bought an infinium. I am wondering if anyone has used coiltech or other after market coil. It would take some modification with plugs or such but I am wondering if they would work.

    Getting in touch with my inner compadre

    My outlaw is In the shop. So I have been spending time with my compadre. It was my first detector and I really know its language. I found a gold ring the other day in a park( a first fOr me) and yesterday a silver ring. It's been a good week. Everyone should try going back to their roots.

    I have had my Outlaw for a few months now. It seemed to be working great. The other day I hit up an old park hoping for some silver. I found tons of surface items but nothing over about 4". I used it at the lake today and it seems to only hit on the close stuff. I found 2 quarters no more...

    I am thinking of getting an Infinium. It will be a beach/ nugget hunting machine. I am wondering if anyone has used one with the 5x10 or 7x3 coils? If so are they more sensitive to small gold? I am wondering how well these perform for nugget hunting?
