[QUOTE="SteelPat, post: 239082, member: 4467"] Over the weekend I was out in Bendigo on private property with my GPZ and the Eureka. A cousin was using the Eureka and he found a strong signal coming from within a rock. I ran the Zed over it and there was nothing. Did multiple ground balances, but no matter what settings we used on the Eureka we could not tune it out. Even turned off all metal mode, tried to discriminate but still a strong signal. A real definite 'target' signal. We broke the rock open and it was almost pure iron inside. I really hope you have found an elusive nugget hidden in the rocks, but unfortunately in highly mineralised ground, the probability is it will be a very compact lump of ironstone. [/QUOTE]
