The first time out I found a 2/10th of a gram nugget. It was about 7 inches, see the YouTube video.
Then I found a 5/10ths of a gram nugget at around 9 inches it was about 20 inches away from the first nugget.
This was in a very small patch of mine that measures about 20 x 30 feet which I have covered every inch of. I even went over it about 4 weeks ago with the SDC 2300 and found nothing. Although I did find 4 little nuggets with the SDC 2300 the first time out with it on a different patch.
So the GPX7000 shows the tremendous depth advantage on little gold that it has over the SDC 2300.
Bottom line is, I am convinced there is no other detector on the market today besides the GPZ 7000 that would have found those two nuggets. To get that kind of depth on little nuggets is unheard of. The standard "rule of thumb" when I started back in 1990 was an SD 2100 or SD 2200 would find a 1 gram nugget at 6 to 7 inches using an 11 inch mono coil.
And that was amazingly impressive in those days because no VLF could go that deep on a 1 gram nugget.
Here are the two nuggets I scored the first time out with the GPZ7000. It is the two sitting on the machine. That was even with the GPZ7000 acting noisy, I still heard those two nuggets loud and clear.
