[QUOTE="echidnadigger, post: 13367, member: 719"] Just a quick not for the new guys, I have never had a false signal from quartz. Iron stone attached to quartz maybe. The type of specie shown in the first post link, should never be walked away from or dismissed. For a small specie commonly found while detecting that doesn't show gold but gives a signal, try wrapping it in a rag and placing it on a hard rock. Give it a smack with the bottom of your pick and you should be rewarded with the most beautiful purest gold you will ever see. With all this said, if you have an unbalanced machine, you may get a falsing type of signal off a sharp edge of any type of rock including quartz so always keep your machine balanced or at least balance it if your not sure of your target. Do not balance over your target. Very nice gold shown, indeed. [/QUOTE]
