[QUOTE="Mr Boring, post: 73779, member: 2933"] I don't think a machine with twice the depth of a 5000 would be as good as it sounds, in WA anyway. There would be more gold found obviously, especially where the gold is found at depth, but not a new era like when the 2000 came out. In my own experience, the gold is generally shallow in ground with limited depth before the cap covering the country rock is met. Exclusions apply in calcite (calcrete) and thick duricrust (caprock), and it is true was Outback said, The detector itself will be a problem soon because it will hear itself! I would like to see a machine that can discriminate targets better and can get those 0.3 and up just a couple of inches deeper. Its only getting harder to find nuggets and i don't think there is to much to look forward to, Unless you're in deep ground with a bulldozer! [/QUOTE]
