Minelab Gold Detectors

If you're new to gold prospecting, the Gold Monster 1000 is the simplest entry point - it's fully automatic, with auto ground balance and noise canceling built in, so there's no need to adjust settings before swinging. For more mineralized ground, Minelab's newer Gold Monster 2000 steps up the technology while keeping the same automatic operation. The SDC 2300 is a different animal: a one-piece, fold-up pulse induction detector that's fully submersible to 10 ft, built for patch hunting in remote and wet ground. At the top end, the GPX 6000 uses GeoSense-PI technology to find gold fast with minimal setup, while the GPZ 7000 uses Minelab's ZVT technology and is built for all-terrain gold prospecting with a Super-D coil configuration.
