But those detectors are not PI.

"Are you sure it's gold?" Yes, I'm sure, it's hard not to recognise shiny yellow metal :) I actually got it on my first pan ever, although I did research by reading a few articles and watching a few videos first. I dug the spots in the creek where a small drop off/small waterfall was and that's...

I done some testing in the old dry creek bed I was talking about and I found some alluvial gold by panning. I've changed my mind about spending 1.5k on a detector. I'm hoping to go for something much cheaper. I saw the Gold Bug Pro on eBay for $565.00, but I'm not sure if it's authentic or not...

There's some gold, I've seen vids of people finding nuggets. But, it seems to get there I'll need a 2-3 hour drive from where I'm located. I might try this gold panning idea before I buy a detector to see if I can find gold in this location I'm scouting. I think that's the wiser choice.

I had a look at that article and I don't live near any of those red places where gold has been found.

OK guys I think I've found a good place. I've got a very long dry creekbed nearby. It's at the foot of a large mountainous area. The creekbed is filled with stones. I'll have to go out there and have a closer look at the landscape and I will probably take some pictures. @ Jaros I'm not sure...

Hey thx Jaros, yes but which type should I buy at Anaconda? I suppose you would suggest the Minelab Gold Monster 1000? My purpose would be to find ~1g nuggets, I'm only interested in gold.

I surveyed about half of my surrounding areas (about an hours drive in a 180 degree radius from where I live) and it was all flat land with intermittent salt bush with a salt basin/salt crust land. There was no 'creeks' or anything (i was mistaken on that) but there were mangroves with lots of...

G'Day Mates! I'd like to try my luck at finding small gold nuggets in my area which is Spencer Gulf in South Australia. The areas that I'm looking at metal detecting in, is mainly salt bush/salt flat areas. And also some small creeks. So, I'm just wondering what detector is best for me to buy...
