[QUOTE="PeterInSa, post: 518618, member: 6627"] Couple of years ago in Talbot I cleaned out a few 6ft holes of tree branches etc etc and heard good signals with the 7000, close to the bottom at an angle, meaning to me at the time, if the hole had been extended they would have found more gold. In one instance I found a 12gm'er in others the ground had actually been worked/filled in and I found bolts, bits of brass and tin with some holes that I dug 3ft wide at the top, and up to 3ft deep ( side ways). Then after the find? its back with the dirt/leaves and tree branches. I think 3 such holes in the morning and 2 in the afternoon is my limit.( and not on a daily basis) Peter [/QUOTE]
