Steady on Grubstake...old dog...new tricks and all that.

I know!...good thing Lisa is the safety officer.

Hi Phill, You get a bit of a feel for it I find. First you need to work out if it is transported cover.....look for the presence of pisolites (black ball bearings) and then see how far you need to jackhammer out a piece. For me....a few inches...say down to 6ish and I'm not that...

GPX 6000....digging in the cap Another vid of average quality for your viewing pleaure: https://studio.youtube.com/video/ylEEGu_U8ro/edit

Spot on.....Many years ago I was out bush with an experienced Geo showing him some tenements Lisa and I had at the time. After a day of licking rocks he said to me that the ground he has just seen is some of the best he has come across (greefields) and that I could easily float a company based...

Yea.....we use some fairly large cat gear to 'gain some extra depth"!! It's more reliable than the rain over here.

Twitchy....we don't really get much up here in Leonora as a rule....mainly atmospherics. Most machines get a bit jumpy but my thoughts are that the 6 more so than most. There has been a couple of times when you can't use it. It's not that surprising given what we are asking it to do. I know what...

cheers Dave....the machine has surprised us both....the sdc surprised us as well but it was pretty obvious pretty quickly it didn't have a lot of depth capabilities. I'm not getting that same feeling with the 6.

Hi Pete...short answer is no....she has been busy working just this one patch. It's a bit warm over here at the moment so she only gets 3-4 hours a day on the ground. My thinking is at if it's pinging the little ones at depth then there is no reason why it won't get bigger bits. It's very hard...

Another 6000 video Lisa has spent 200 hours plus on the new 6000...this is her thoughts.... https://youtu.be/xQno80rBIww

Hope you don't mind me posting this Bob...more storm action...same storm

Any thoughts on the arkpak versus the redarc go block? The latter selling for close to 3k!!! The arkpak half that....I cant see a lot of difference??? Appreciate peoples thoughts.

This is only..'my gut feeling'....but the 6000 is getting targets that the 5000 won't touch....as did the SDC. But is the kind of gold your chasing?

Hi Teemore, Lisa has spent around 150 hours with the 6 so far (in wa and on quiet granite country) and the 6 is leaving the sdc behind in it's wake. I mean...chalk and cheese....mind you..it should...it's twice the price!!! It seems a bit twitchy on EMI and a bit more jumpy than the SDC on hot...

G'day Emu.....yep...it's a wa thing.

WA Special Prospecting Licence Information G'day Prospectors...... I wasn't sure which section to put this.....this is a link to a 23minute vid I have just put up on our youtube channel thingy. In it I have tried to run through some of the basics of applying for an SPL as there does not seem...

yea....all Lisa and I are doing with the threshold is playing around to see what it's like and what happens....again...I am very bias...but Lisa is an absolute freak of a detector operator...she could forget to turn the bloody thing on and still find gold!

It's tricky....there is no doubt in my mind that the 7 is the bigger hitter between the two. (Please also keep in mind I haven't spent enough time on the 6 to be 100%) But I guess it will all come down to what it is your after??...If your chasing weight for a living or serious hobby then I still...

Home made job.

Thanks Mackka....we invested in a gopro and wireless microphone system....that being said...we have almost no idea how to use it!...thats the fun part.
