Excellent Rolf - really looking forward to seeing these on the market again. Mine are showing their age, but then again so am I. lol

Rolf, I contacted you a few years ago about using this to locate flake graphite in tropical soils. Many people think this is a metal detector and then discover it is not, and they conclude is that it is a fake. You need to focus on how it works rather than on how to use it. It is not specific to gold alone and has to make physical contact with the metallic particles of native metals like gold, silver, copper, but the other metals can be iron or aluminium from human activity. I had to argue on your behalf to have it removed from an industry list of "voodoo prospecting methods" by explaining that it was a micro-ohmmeter. I demonstrated my older model to the members of a geological society who were learning how to pan in a local river. It was quite clear that the Goldspear located the best place to pan, but even more important, if the Goldspear had no response, then panning at that location was a waste of time.

Hello. Tell me, is there a discriminator on this golden spear so that it reacts only to gold?

[@karhukivi]

There are three discriminators, the first one for all metals which are conductive (native metals, gold, silver, but also aluminium foil and iron filings scrap etc) and that would extend down to graphite and pyrrhotite; The second one is for sulphides (pyrite, chalcopyrite) which are 100-1000 times less conductive than metals; The third one is for magnetite which is less conductive than sulphides but is dense and is usually found in panning as black sand. As with metal detectors, it is best to avoid areas where people have discarded rubbish, campsites, picnic areas etc.

​@@karhukiviGot it, thanks for the answer! I thought and was delighted that there was a gold only mode! but it turns out that there may be aluminum in there too!

[@karhukivi]

@@vodoroda9449 If you are away from human activity, the most likely metal is gold. Bullets, nails, coins, and BBQ charcoal are far less likely to be present. Good luck!

[@vodoroda9449]

@@karhukivi thank you, and a little humor - What a grasping! What a skill! That's the end of my ordeal! You could be a politician And hold a minister's position! With the foes we must take care, There's always trouble in the air, I would join you on a mission, Take you with me anywhere. I can pay you back, I think, Marten, beaver - anything! If you want, I'll give you coins, Gold or silver - it's your choice.
