Wow! got 3 out of 10 not bad for not living there.

RobertBob There is a wealth of gold detecting info for the CTX 3030 here: CTX 3030 on Gold Nuggets - Tips On Settings. Do a search on Gold Hound. If you don`t get the info PM me and I will put you on to the location.

Your machine is a proven gold getter and will find small gold that other machines miss. I have been to WA twice with the SDC 2300 and have gotten over 150 nuggets with it.

Either the Detech 6in or 8in Mono, run smooth and deep.

A 6in Round Detech Mono will ferret them out.

Hare_Twigga Could you please post a picture of your auger, it sounds interesting.

DWT calls it hour glass effect , gold path is similar. Just because there's no gold in 100 mtrs doesn't mean the next 100 mtrs isn't rich .always dig down if you hit gravel at 2 / 4 inches your closer to the gold . :)Dr Good advice but may I suggest using a GPS to stay at the same elevation...

Got a GPX 5000, was fortunate to go out with a real pro as I had no experience on the 5k. In one hr he had 8, I had none, listen again he said do you hear it? Frustrated I listened again, went out and heard that sweet lilting warble, dug down and got a dirty brownish red pebble, popped it in my...

Have it tested for nickle, all iron meteorites have it.

In your opinion and why, what months are the best for detecting in the Golden Triangle. Weather, vegetation, etc. Thinking of planning a trip over there.

After you get all the visible gold out of the black sand, heat it out side in a cast iron frying pan until it is almost red then dump in cold water, this is called cracking and it will liberate any gold that was combined up with the sand. Do this out side in case there is mercury present in the...

I use the Garrett Super Sluice, nice wide bottom that lets you process material quickly. Most newbies buy too small of a pan and it becomes difficult to keep the material flowing in the right direction.

Hi Zlato, I may be able to help you with Detech coils. I would like to PM you but can`t figure how to do it.

To me gold is gold and I will take it as it comes, big, little, medium all good stuff. I just know I will be spending more time on the big, little faint signals this year with more coil changes and a vlf sweep to satisfy my curiosity. Thanks for the enlightenment.

I have only detected in WA but would like to try Vic at some time only to say that I been there and pinged a piece or two as long as they were several oz in size ;) I have access to some good vlf, one being the XP Deus which has just been down loaded with a new gold program. Someone on another...

Great info. I agree about the smaller and larger gold being there, the solution is a change of coils and different approaches, chaining etc. I am also contemplating a vlf to use as a sweeper after the 5000 and possibly a Falcon MD 20 to check for anything worth dry blowing. I pounded a spot in...

:o Wow! unfortunately you have to throw them back as they were found out of sequence.

8) You find your first nugget of the day, how do you proceed? Start to circle from it, go directly away, look at the lay of the land? What is your method?
