The fact of the matter is most of you rely on the incompetence of the old timers to find gold, most alluvial diggings were deeper than any detector can penetrate, that's when you need to go out and actually look around the area
GPX 6000. Visited St Arnaud, Maryborough and Talbot this week using the Signal and Doug Stone maps, mainly in the shallow workings areas. Prior to that Wedderburn, Inglewood and Bendigo Whipstick worked areas by the old timers. Mainly use manual sensitivity areas 1,2 and 3. Consistently noise cancelling and balancing the unit. Tried old creek beds, scrapped areas no joy. Most areas just have rubbish. It makes me wonder whether I should go to non worked areas.
Extremely detailed, thanks for showing. It takes some preparation and taking hard copies as printed screenshots can help, saving for offline use needs checking and testing yourself, as using the mobile phone in the field is very difficult, and some sites, like Heritage Victoria, are nearly impossible to work, unless you're using a desktop computer. That some areas you'd have thought were covered, and aren't, is similar to what you're saying about trying prospecting in between known sites, but mindful to not leaving disturbance, not drawing attention to yourself, on what you're doing, or what you're looking for, or have found. Respectful discretion compared to disrespectful indiscretion, one is won reward, the other is cheating plunder. Continued good luck!
Well explained you've encouraged me to try Geovic again instead of just using my old maps on my trip to Maryborough next week. Cheers
Thanks mate. Good luck finding your next nugget 💪💪

Hi, my son and I are coming to Maryborough to try our luck at detecting, this video was absolutely perfect thank you so much.
Happy to help ! Good luck. Found plenty of gold in Maryborough. Lots of small stuff but it adds up. Hope you find heaps 💪💪
WOW - Gold prospecting button
Wasn't aware of that.
Thank You.
Glad to help mate 💪thanks for watching
Haven’t noticed the gold prospecting icon before. Cheers
No worries mate. Hope this helps. 💪
Can this be used in another country sir ??
No not this one . I’m sure every country / state has their own version though. Thanks for watching. 💪
Love the knowledge you are providing in regard to prospecting. Subscribed and liked, hope you find an abundance of gold.
Thanks mate 💪 I know how hard it is so I’m happy to help out. Thanks for the support
I have been doing it for two years now, no luck at all. Just lead and tin. Don’t know where to go, I have been to so many places.
What machine you swinging and what area are you in ?
