Let me share this piece of wisdom with you.
If you are finding tiny shotgun pellets, there has been no other competent SDC operator in that area.
Personally when I find lead, I know no other detector has been in that area and get real keen but there may or may not be gold there too.
Accept that gold to lead can be 100:1 ratio some days.

Why does that mean no one one has been there. They might be just throwing what they find back on the ground again
I think that the words " no other
competent SDC operator in that area" is the clue. I am assuming that he, like I, take away any junk that we find, even as a service to the environment and other detectorists, and while those that throw there junk back may not be incompetent, I would like to think that a good detectorist would do the same.
