[QUOTE="grubstake, post: 673711, member: 4012"] I think you'll find that any strong signal overwhelms the very basic discrimination circuitry of the Monster. It's meant for 'nail or nugget?' decisions (not that I'd ever trust it for that ;) ), but if you go over something like a shallow horseshoe, I timagine that will also register as non-ferrous simply because of the large signal strength. A patch of mineralisation that's uncharacteristicly stronger than that of the ground around it could likely do the same, which I believe is what is happening in the case of this column, as I doubt that a concentrated amount of flour gold would register.
