Minelab Gold Monster 1000 Gold Detector

Fully automatic and easy quick start, the Gold Monster 1000 is an ultra-efficient gold detecting machine. Extra sensitive 45 kHz performance which greatly boosts the sensitivity to gold over a wide range of nugget sizes, while at the same time reduces excess noise and false signals. The Gold Chance Indicator gives you a quick visualisation on the screen of your chance of finding Gold before you start digging. The 2 included waterproof coils cover all ground with 5" Double-D coil is perfect for detecting in confined spaces the 10" x 6" Double-D coil covers more ground and good depth in open spaces.

VLF
VLF (Very Low Frequency) is a conventional single frequency sine wave continuous transmission technology. This is the traditional type of technology used in most basic metal detectors. Single frequency sine wave detectors create an electro-magnetic field, which is transmitted into the ground in a continuous wave. While the basic way that the signal is sent out and received back has not changed, the receive signal processing has improved enormously. This has proven to be a reliable and easy to use technology for finding gold.

Features

Fully Automatic Operation
• Automatic Noise Cancel
• Auto Ground Balance

45 KHZ VLF & 24-BIT SIGNAL PROCESSOR
• This primary combination greatly boosts sensitivity to gold beyond that of other single frequency VLF detectors over a wide range of nugget sizes, without introducing excess noise and false signals.

Easy-To-Use Controls
• Gold Chance Indicator
• Detect Modes: Gold (Iron Reject) and Deep All-Metal
• Sensitivity Options: Manual Sensitivity, Auto, Auto+
• Adjustable Volume: 6 volume levels

Adaptable Form
• Wide ground coverage
• Confined space detecting
• Universal shaft adaptability

Waterproof Coil
• Waterproof coil (to 1 m / 3 ft) and Rain proof control box

Improved Discrimination
• The GOLD MONSTER 1000 also has improved ferrous/non-ferrous discrimination and copes better with conductive (salty) soils than higher frequency detectors, making it the perfect choice to maximise your gold recovery.
