Re: MINELAB MANTICORE: DATA & PERFORMANCE
To add to what Tom said,after 500 hours with prospecting audio,I could hear subtle differences in the sound,that tells me it's gold or silver..I like Tom am not very good musicaly, all I'm wanting is a sharp tone on micro gokd..something the nox never had,the nox was good down to 1.5/2g gold....

Re: MINELAB MANTICORE: DATA & PERFORMANCE
 Water (just like air) can have/create vortices (like a tornado)........ which will create craters in the sand! Very interesting, in that case have you thought of a design To build a machine that would create an artificial vortex To remove sand from desired locations... I already had the idea to use...

Re: MINELAB MANTICORE: DATA & PERFORMANCE

This beach 95% of the time has no waves..an it's shallow For first 30m..so the ladies tend to walk in an...

Re: MINELAB MANTICORE: DATA & PERFORMANCE
Here's what I learnt in the first 3 months of using the MANTICORE WITH M8 (THE MOST SENSITIVE COIL EVER MADE).The 11 inch coil performs poorly in moderate black sand,grey clay. MICRO GOLD has always been there ,we just did not here it (therefore you do not need high sensitivity, when hunting it) bec...

With PROSPECTING AUDIO I know size ,weight,an 80% of time m...
