[QUOTE="SimonF, post: 634490, member: 22581"] Are you finding small bits of junk (lead shot, fragments of tin, etc) yet? If not, run Gold 1 or Gold 2 mode, and remember to run noise cancellation before you start detecting. In heavily mineralised soil (e.g. Aussie goldfields) you will probably want to re-do the ground balance every 10-20m to quiet it down again. (Use the ground balance method where you pump the coil up and down until the number stabilises - I think Equinox calls this "auto", which is different from the default auto ground tracking mode and manual mode where you dial the number in directly). Good luck! Simon [/QUOTE]
