Good fun

Got this one recently, just over 12 grams

I've been back and dug about 25 bits of trash all around it, but no more colour.

 

[Chewy]

Nice size bit there Nenad. You must have been happy when you pulled it out of the ground.

 

[SCROUNGER]

Yummy, well done PhaseTech. That's what i want for Christmas :lol: What machine and how deep was it?

 

[PhaseTech]

Yes very excited Chewy, especially after I gave it a bit of a bath in the lid of my water bottle.

GPZ in High Yield, about 40cm down (didn't have anything to measure the hole).

I went out for a few hours this arvo with the intention of working the same area as i was at on the weekend. Somebody was there so i went to a small surfaced area that i hit very hard when i first got the sdc months ago. The experts say you never get it all, well ain't that the truth, i haven't hit that first area for months because i really thought there wasn't a lot left because i gave it such a flogging!! Seems i didn't do that good a job the first time around because i got these over open areas i reckon i've run the sdc over at least ten or so times before:lol: All i can put it down to is that i'm now gaining more experience with the machine and noticing signals i would have missed before. It's great, it's like i've now got another new spot to try where i know there's gold:lol:

 

[rockerfella]

Well done Trev, that yella ain't safe around you now. Go get em mate
Cheers

Gotta love the sdc . Been thinking of getting one so hired one for a couple of days for the Missus to use. Went to a spot I've been over with the Sadie a couple of times and was very surprised as I must say the wife didn't get to use the sdc for very long. After all she had to cook lunch. Ended up with 31 pieces for about 3.5 grams

 

[Dug]

The boys and I detected our first piece of gold yesterday and we were wrapped ....even at 0.3 grams 6" down

 

[G0lddigg@]

Woohoo thats awesome congrats

 

[Chewy]

Congrats Dug, well done.

 

[Chewy]

Very nice Scrounger, nuggets are an endangered species around you and your trusty SDC.

 

[SCROUNGER]

I wanna go out with you and your wife Bjay :lol: Way to go Dug and may there be many more. Thanks Chewy, loving the sdc mate

Spent an enjoyable afternoon out with my 11yo last Sunday, what a great day after a sub zero start. Managed to find 6 pieces! and boy is the SDC one sensitive device, one of the pieces I struggled to locate. And as you wouldn't believe I scanned a fresh dug hole and got a faint signal, thinking of course that someone had decided to leave the lead shot in the bottom for some sucker like me , I decided to dig and I was surprised to find a nice spec in the dirt [moral DIG ALL SIGNALS EVEN FRESH HOLES]. I now officially have the fever and cant wait to go back again this weekend.

 

[SCROUNGER]

Fantastic Tryhard, good going mate. The sdc is a mean machine on those small bits that's for sure.

 

[Chewy]

Well done, nice littlies. Their big brother must be lurking somewhere nearby waiting for you and your young fella to come back and get him and reunite the nugget family.

 

[JeffP]

Really looks like the SDC is the Dust Pan and Broom in Gold Detecting . See more finds from this detector than any other on here . It really make me wonder if there is that many big pieces in the ground anymore ?

 

[SCROUNGER]

I reckon a lot of the members just don't bother posting them up JeffP. I see a lot more people waving machines other than sdcs out there so they gotta be finding something i reckon.

 

[Shingles]

Sounds like a great day out mate. Those sdc's are a great machine, I found a nugget that was so small, it took me 20 minutes to locate it once it was at the surface. Couldn't weigh it because my scales don't go under 0.1 of a gram!

 

[SCROUNGER]

Saturdays finds with the sdc. The largest nug at the top was about 200mm deep on the edge of a bush track and the one below it was about a metre away, on the track and about 20 mm deep. Just on one gram total. I didn't go out Sunday, it was close to snowing and freezing cold..i'm getting too old and soft :lol: :lol:
