GPZ 7000 the Best Ever

I bought a Minelab GPZ 7000 in March from George who owns Miners Den in Cairns where you can get an excellent service and George will always try to help you when you need it . I would like to share my first experiences, for me it is a formidable detector and so easy to use, my first trip in the goldfields was in March for 10 days to test it and I could find many very deep specimens on an area I have previously detect with a return of 5 ounces of gold , a good start.

I am retired so I have plenty of time, I am not a professional it is only a hobby , so far I spent around seven weeks in the Queensland goldfields and run the Minelab GPZ 7000 only on pre-set factory settings and get gold nearly every day. I camp in the bush then I go detecting with a motor bike, for me it is so easy to set up this detector as I carry it in custom made bag and so quick to start compare to some I own before. I go slow and low and I have some excellent results to my level, I balance it very often and it pays and if the threshold is a bit noisy as soon I find a target, even a faint signal I will pick it up , it will cover the threshold sometimes a bit noisy but you need to be very attentive .

I talked on the field with a few people who were using a GPZ 7000 and most of them are happy and for the one who was not convince yet I believe regarding what he said to me, is expectations are a lot to high , first of course you have to be on the gold and listen very carefully , with this one you can find some tiny nuggets with a very loud signal, some very deep specimens with a very clear signal , the deepest I found was 80 cm deep with 100g of very shiny gold showing through .

So now for me we have to stop ignoring any signal because this detector is so responsive that we will walk away from gold. I think personally that it is the one to buy when you can afford it but we have to remember one thing this detector do not make gold it only help us more than ever . So far I found nearly half a kg of gold for 7 weeks of fun, with some very exciting moments when you dig so deep. I would like to tell you how I am happy to own the new GPZ 7000 so functional and easy to adjust the settings and how you are lucky to have Minelab dealer like George in Cairns.
