Minelab SDC-2300 miracle machine.
Back in 95 we took over a Prospecting Lease; the previous owners had done some work with a bobcat barely scraping the rocks off about 1 hectare in total.
We arrived with Garrett Groundhogs and the then new Whites Vsats and immediately found gold they had left. Through the coming years we advanced through the Minelab range occasionally revisiting these scrapes and always finding a few more pieces.
Two of my mates recently purchased a SDC-2300 each and were fortunate to receive some firsthand tuition on how to gain the best out of this amazing machine.
In a nutshell the tutor lay down, For best results become a scrubber.
The two decided they would give the scrapes one more try.
Low and behold 4 hours later they returned to the camp and sat down with a couple of frothies and realised they had a total of 81 nuggets from what they believed had to be barren ground.
N 54 total = 12.7grams
C 27 total = 7grams.
Two very happy fellas who cant wait to get back again this year and swing over some virgin ground, only 199 hectares to go. :trophy:
