GPX 6000 in the Goldfield 

Absolutely. But you can't reject any junk metals as there is no discrimination function.

Lots of options these days in terms of raw grunt, weight, turn on and go or full customizable.

Update Nenad. Mrs has ordered a 6000 lol. Is it the case that the 6000 works ok on saltpan type ground? Quite a lot of saltpan ground around Cue and Meeka that would be good to check out with the 6000 and 2300.

Yes, VLF detectors are great on small gold, but they perform poorly in heavy mineralisation, and can't reach the depth of PI machines. The 6000 is like a VLF and PI in one.

Hey! thank you for answering) I am aware that vlf detectors do not cope with strong mineralization and gpx 6000 2 in 1 (vlf + pi). I wanted to say, show better how much better gpx 6000 is from 5000 in detecting deep targets. And can you compare it to 7000? Thanks in advance!

@@dddsss3439I heard the 7000 finds larger nuggets because it searches deeper.

No, existing Nugget Finder coils will not work.

That's up to the individual to decide. To me it has found gold every time I've been out except two trips.

4500 more better

5000 is still probably the most versatile gold machine Minelab have ever made. Lots of timing and coil options, with iron reject and cancel mode etc. For raw performance the 6000 will be much better on very small gold, and also reefy or specimen gold. On larger gold, there are a lot of variables, and I've seen both do better on different types of gold. The 6000 is very easy to use, very light and balanced and the 14" DD does very well around electric fences and powerlines.

Can only use the supplied pack.

The 7000 has a few benefits. 1. More control over the audio. 2. Ground balance options, i.e. you can switch the auto tracking off. 3. Concealed coil cable. 4. More depth on larger nuggets. 5. Can handle highly mineralised and high salt ground with a few settings changes, with the 6000 you may have to swap to the 14" DD coil. 6. Normal ground type setting gives a greater boost in performance compared to Normal on the 6000.

Yes there is. I posted a picture on my Facebook page.

Still early days, and lots of factors to consider. Will be doing some comparisons in future videos.

No. I still like the GPZ. But I'm going to have fun with the 6000 for a while. Lots of old spots to go over.

It sure is mate!

Thanks!

See my reply to Cold War Jesus

You sure can. Just need to change the sP01 audio cable to 3.5mm on one end, or use the Equinox Audio Adaptor cable. That'll convert to a 1/4" socket.

@@diggingwithphasetech thanks..

Ticks a lot of boxes, and finds gold. Can't ask for much more

@@diggingwithphasetech they seem noisy ??

Can be. My local goldfields are generally terrible for EMI though. That's where the 14" coil comes in. Much more stable.

You mean for the 7000?? Biggest coil for the 6000 is the 17x13

Yeah probably should have investigated those

No problem 👍

They are priced at $7999 in Australia.

Can't run normal there with monos on the 4500 and 5000. Can't run Normal with the GPZ. In the first spot I have run the GPZ19 in Normal, but still some false signals.

Thanks, I like it too
