[QUOTE="BigWave, post: 351710, member: 6786"] Picker wrote: "Discrimination was fairly good although it calls lead a gold target as well as aluminium, but not iron". It's only natural that it would call lead and aluminium (also tin, copper, brass etc) on the gold side, as they are both conductive like iron, but unlike iron they are non-ferromagnetic. It's largely the degree of ferromagnetism which is used to indicate/discriminate. Not having owned one, but IMHO, it is likely that it would also discriminate out many hot rocks due to their iron content. Beaut pics BTW :Y: [/QUOTE]
