Target....
What is your opinion about moving conductive air over ground ?
I heard travel from south to north ,
Best regards.

Hi Aft,
A gold target is easy. You can use any piece of gold jewelry and bury it. Or you can bury an old circuit board or component that has gold plating on the conductors. This will be more than enough to make as many ions as a solid gold item for test purposes. If you want to make gold ions, you can put the gold plated item into a dish with some aqua regia, or some cyanide solution to dissolve it. Then you will have a dish of gold ions that you can dump into a bucket of soil. Then you can stand above this bucket of soil with gold ions and check to see if there are any gold ions floating in the air. You could also check the theory for other buried metals. It is easy to bury copper, silver, lead, iron, zinc and any other metal you can find (These can be dissolved with less dangerous chemicals like muriatic acid and suphuric acid). Then measure the air above the buried metal to see if you can find some metal ions floating above them. If you know where there is a buried pipe, then you already have a long time buried metal place to test.
My understanding is that the south to north detection is related to the magnetic field of the earth, not the conductivity of the air. For example, a compass will respond to a magnetic field. But the compass does not respond to the conductivity of the air. In the case of an electric charge detector that is being used to check the charge in the air, more conductive air is air which has higher humidity. I would expect that the current flow leaking from the earth to the atmosphere is more in areas of high humidity than dry areas. All this can change in weather systems where the local air charge can change to become more or less, or even reversed for short times. The only reason I would think south and north has some influence on air conductivity is if you are in an area where the wind currents travel from south to north to blow in air that has a different conductivity. I know of no magnetic component that can be measured when checking the electric charge of normal air, no matter what its conductivity is. Possibly in rare circumstances like during a storm, the air could be come much more conductive in certain paths and directions. This is generally what happens when lightning strikes. I doubt most treasure hunters would go hunting during these times, so I figure they are not seen much when treasure hunting.
Best wishes,
