.............If someone was to ask me (which is unlikely) what is the best possibility for passive LRL I'd likely answer magnetic anomalies. The reason - gold is mildly anti-magnetic. Any large concentration of gold should produce a measurable magnetic difference to the local magnetic field. If someone would like to supply me with a couple of hundred ounces of gold so I can test this theory I would be electrostatic er ecstatic.

Yes I strongly agree that things must be different when there is large gold burried and this applies to Vlfs and PI detectors as well.
And this is the difficult part for all the electronic people experimenting whith LRLs.
May be it was many times that some of them came up whith a good LRL but they left it behind because they never did properly testing.
I believe that having a proper place for testing is much more important than trying to choose a box between metal and wood.
I am more into practising treasure hunting instead of constructing LRLs and what I have found out up to now is that some LRLs worked for me while on the right place but unluckily they didn't show any detecting abilities to their designers.
