[QUOTE="Lesgold, post: 598857, member: 9840"] Tree roots can give that nice deep nugget sound and quickly turn excitement into disappointment. The Z Search due to its sensitivity is guilty of this. The two nuggets were found close to trees. My mates nugget was shallow and was a very good signal so there was no doubt that a metallic object was lying beneath. (The whole area was a high trash area. My guess is that it may have been an old miners camp) The nugget I found was next to a tree under a rocky outcrop. When the rocks were dug out, the signal increased in strength. After digging gown about a further 5 inches, I struck a large tree root. The tree root false signal was not a consideration at this stage due to a screaming detector. I think another trip to this area will occur shortly. Cheers Les [/QUOTE]
