Gold detecting can be one of the most rewarding and relaxing experinces you will ever have in your life. Beware though once you find that first gold nugget you may become addicted and gold detecting will be in your blood for life.
The first decision you need to make is which gold detector to purchase. They range in price from under one hundred dollars to over five thousand dollars for a top the the range machine. Make sure before you purchase a gold detector do plenty of research to find a gold detector that is going to be suitable for you. If you are just starting out gold detecting it is better to purchase a basic machine with not to many settings.
The gold detector is basically made up of three components. The first and most important is the control box. The control box is what gives you the signal when you go over a target. The second is the component of the gold detector is the coil. If you are looking for small nuggets close to the surface you will use a small coil. If you are looking for larger nuggets deep down you will use a large coil. There are two types of coil on the market you can purchase. They are a monoloop coil and a double d coil. The third compnent of a metal detector is the power supply or battery box. This may not seem important but if your control box isn’t getting full power from the batteries it won’t work to it’s maximum potential.
Once you have purchased your machine don’t just jump in the car on and go off gold detecting staight away. Spend some time learning about your new gold detector and all it’s functions. Having your machine on the correct settings for the type of ground you are detecting will make the difference between finding gold and not finding gold.

Product Description
The Minelab GPX 4500 metal detector features new technology, new timings, new discoveries await! Find gold deeper in all ground types with improved discrimination and more. Minelab GPX-4500, A creation worth its weight in Gold!
New GPX-4500 Features:
NEW TIMINGS so the Minelab GPX is even more versatile. Users of the GPX-4000 have learned just how valuable it is to have a range of timings available, to optimize the performance of the detector in various conditions.The GPX-4500 introduces two new timings, Enhance & Sharp, in addition to the four found on the previous model. The new Enhance timing is a powerful feature, similar to the Sensitive Smooth timing, but provides an improvement in the depth and signal response on small and large targets alike.
The Sharp timing is more suited to the quieter soils and provides the most powerful detection field of all the Soil/Timing options. The Sharp timing can also be used as an aid to pin-pointing faint signals. Increase in Audio Gain. The design of the amplifier and the use of the high-quality low noise components ensure the signal response is clear and crisp, without the added background hum of some boosters.
Minelab GPX 4500 metal detector is the ultimate gold prospecting detector with the new added features that makes it stronger and more versatile than ever before.
Incorporating new SETA gold nuggett hunting technology, it is quieter and more immune to interference, so that it is a real pleasure to use.
