    South Australian meteorite hunter has found hundreds!

    That’s a great read grubstake.... thanks for posting. They do look as if they stand out from earthly rocks in that environment. I will have keep my eyes peeled when I’m in similar territory. It would be a blast to eyeball one just sun baking in front of you.

    Newbie in North WA

    Yep, been there Phil... it's called The Lodge Old Town ( on the entrance gate anyway). The amenities were pretty basic when I was there 5 years ago, but it's a secure place to stay in that wild country. I found a few bits not too far from the lodge. Lots of grass and spinifex, so gaiters are a...

    AlgoForce e1500 coil recommendations?

    If you were hunting in very mineralised ground and running in Ultra fine gold, then this could explain the extra sensitivity you were getting. In very hot ground I tend to use Small gold or even Normal. As far as extra depth goes then a larger coil is your answer obviously. My 14x9 Evo is the...

    Why the gold price is surging and what it tells us about global stability

    There’s a certain very unstable guy hoping to gain leadership of a country with a huge economy. I think this is a big factor in why the price of gold is skyrocketing. Buy up if he wins.....because the 💩 will hit the fan. !

    How hot can hot ground get?

    If you have a screaming ‘target’at 4 feet deep with a 12”coil, then it’s probably a huge piece of junk like a sheet of corrugated iron or similar. I don’t think you would be chasing ground noise that deep. If it’s a huge nugget, then you’re a rich man.....

    Wiley's coin and relic by-products from 40 years of gold prospecting.

    Wiley, that small medallion is similar to this one that I found... It signifies Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows with the seven swords. I think this modern one is similar to your obviously old version.

    AlgoForce e1500 coil recommendations?

    Back on topic here..... After a run with the Coiltek 10x5 Joey at Tibooburra, I came away pretty disappointed with its bump sensitivity when just touching anything whilst swinging over uneven ground laced with rock and quartz. Although it is very edge sensitive for those tight spots, I found it...

    You can’t keep a good guy down..... Luke Phillips, what a champ.

    If anyone deserves a payday like that, then it is Luke. I’ve been watching his YouTube channel for awhile, and what he’s gone through providing knowledge and info to the detecting community. A deserving reward for great guy...👏 In the video, the serious stuff starts at the 14.30 minute...

    The biggest nugget with a 6000 so far I’d say...!!!

    If you are in Adelaide, give Nenad at https://phasetechnical.com.au a call. He can repair headphones and supply most parts for Minelab gear. He also makes the SP01 enhancer and can advise on wireless sound setups.

    AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    Nenad is a distributor here in Adelaide for the AlgoForce and has had some input into it’s development. The actual designer was a former MineLab computer engineer . Having just returned from a detecting trip to Tibooburra with the E1500 , I can fully endorse the above observations by XLOOX. I...

    AlgoForce e1500 coil recommendations?

    I couldn’t resist grabbing this Coiltek 10 x 5 Joey coil when I saw it posted here... ( thanks Digger96 ). The thing looks brand spanking new. It certainly suits the AlgoForce and balances really well with my lighter weight battery pack. I’ll be heading up to Tibooburra next week to do some...

    Whinge of the day thread...

    If you watch this video of a qualified MD analysing what is in Mc Donald’s food, you probably would never eat there again..... no wonder obesity and diabetes is running rampant in the western world.

    Algoforce battery

    What’s the red and black cable for... Bluetooth transmitter?

    Prospecting gadgets and accessories

    That’s a neat solution there for a single cable for multiple devices. That’s assuming that the one magnetic cable is compatible with USB C and micro B charging ports. Do you get both types with the cable? Most of my devices have the more current USB C port.

    Mechanics help required please.

    I’m just curious Mackka as to how they diagnosed your radiator as leaking / needing replacement. They would have had to add coolant / water and probably start the engine to determine where it was leaking from..... upper or lower tank or core. Unless they saw an obvious crack in the plastic...

    AlgoForce e1500 coil recommendations?

    Yes, some coils appear to be problematic on the AlgoForce. I too tried a mates 12” Evo on mine and found that it was very bump/ touch sensitive..... maybe just this particular coil though. It was still detecting targets okay when swinging off the ground, but contact with anything gave a...

    AlgoForce E1500 - NEW PI DETECTOR FROM EX MINELAB ENGINEER

    Thanks for that update Simon. You’re turning out to be AlgoForce’s media liaison spokesperson atm. A bit like Dilek from Nokta... I know you have been advising them of possible future improvements to the E1500, but your efforts to promote them via forums like this, makes me think you’re maybe...
