Thumbs up

Hi Geo,
Good to read such pleasant news.
would you please write a little about your tests: target, conditions,....
How do you claim it detects only gold?
did you know about your target situation; i.e. how you knew
its' location whereas it was old. did you find it incidentally?
what object, from which distance and what depth?
Haven't you found out it finds just superficial small targets?
BTW; Geo, have you used from mineoro devices before this and give a comparison note here?
please share us with more information.
Thanks a lot.

Good questions Michael.
If this turns to be workable (which i doubt much) than it will start "revolution" in metal detecting world. Reading your posts, on this forum, Geo, i have impression that you are serious man, not just ilusionist like few others. Further i expect from you (i guess many others too) to more detailed explain your experiences with that device. Beware! Be honest or you may risk to be taken as charlatan in future. So far you look like honest man.
Regards!

Hi roberts. I have not any reason to don't say the truth.
Now i have not the full experience with this machine. I saw that it detect gold, Don't detect bronze and silver, it have problem with power transformers and super high voltage transmittion lines, and you must turn the detector very slowly left and right.
I think that i don't know anything other to tell you until next weekend
Aaa the price is 5000 euro (high price but.......)
Regards

Hi Michael.
I have not made a lot of tests. I went at some places where i know that there are very old objects of gold and i tried it. At the same place there are a lot objects of bronze and silver (coins... rings etc)
Iconos beeps at five positions (at 2 positions i am sure that there is gold but i can't take it). At one place i found a small piece of gold (thin plate 2cm x 1 cm) at 30cm depth. With this small target it was problem to center the detector. I used a detector (whites XLT) to center and to find the object.
As i saw it, it can detect old gold (not fresh) very easy.
It has problem near to transformers (20kv/ 100....1000kva), and near to transfer lines 150Kv or 400KV.
Next weekend if the weather is good (if don't rain) i will go again to test it and i will write you.
Ohh i forgot........ I never used any device from Mineoro so i have not any experience from it
Regards

Hi Nelson.
As you see in this thread the only thing that i do is to transfer my experiences from this detector.
I want you to be sure that if i will find a treasure i will write you

I am very curious on how you dated the thin plate of gold. Was it a dated gold coin?

How can one tell the different between “old gold” and “fresh gold” when it is in a thin plate format?

Hi Jim,
interesting question. there are no oxides etc... that could give an idea there on recovered gold item age.

Expecially if it's a flat gold plate.

But you must consider also that Geo talked about ancient places... you know... he's from Greece and I think he understand very well if something is from one age or another... cause of other things there that could give particual indication of age of soil layer where he was prospecting with the LRL.

That doesn't automatically mean that target is really from that particular age... but just indications on its supposed age. If there are signs on object or anything that could mark it better to a particular age that will be even more useful.

Best regards,
Max

Default Mineoro DC2008

I allready put all imformation about performance of this device in Forum. In air test,it work like a weak metal detector,one large gold coin-20cm,jar with silver coins 50cm...In all weather conditions work like this. I don´t find targets with pinpoint,this machine works very bad,it´s a broken dream...

This is a completely abnormal behaviour.
I know of a DC2008 user who lives in a state upper northeast in Brazil. He has 3 gold test samples buried in his farm for a little more than a year. He told me his DC beeps at the samples at no problem.
I know this because on a phone conversation with him a few days ago he told me the above occurence.

I think you should seriously consider investigating your problem as I know that what you report is absolutely abnormal.
If you wish send me a PM so we can discuss this in details.
Regards.

Hi digital logic!

Please tell us of your experiences with your Mineoro - both good (if any) and bad.

Hello Michael,unfortunly i don´t have good experiences with my Mineoro,i only get clear signals in Mineoro factory field test. during one year searching with this device on beach and old farm houses its possible to confirm this device start beep beep when a field is loaded with metals,but anyway i cant pinpoint them and must use my metal detector. Please tell me some of your experience with FG80.
