whites gmt goldmaster

just picked up mint goldmaster from bloke down the road , he only bought it last october been used twice , came with carry bag , headphones and under chin headphones and new batteries as well all for $550 which I think is a great buy cheers Mick

Hi mickstarr,

Don't know much about GMT - however looking at its new cost you have purchased at a good price.

Good luck

The only people who cannot find gold with the GMT are ML Operators They have been spoilt rotten by detectors that trained monkeys can find gold with and as a result they have lost the art of true skilfull metal detecting HEH,HEH,HEH..........OHHH I jus hate myself when I do this

YEH, SURE YOU DO.

I have one of these
still trying to find gold
found lost of steel and 22 slugs
it is great to get out into areas that are on your door step but would never vist

well finally got out in the valley where have been going to go for a while , found 4 small speckies not much in them maybe couple grams all up but at least we got some , where we wanted to go was all bedrock last week , get there this week and dam spillway running flat out after rain on weekend so creeks all full , will go back in a couple weeks and try again , but going up to another place on sunday to have a bit of a swing



Cheers Mick

Congrats on your finds Mick hope Sunday turns out to be good one keep up the good work mate

Cheers

Mike

well we went up the back again , different place got 2 vey small speckies , would be lucky to be half a gram but at least we can add to the other ones , have to get planning for a good trip next time


Cheers Mick

Good on ya Mick at least you are finding something still have not got anything so far this year, but will keep trying congrats again Mick.

Cheers

Mike

Hope you'll do well Mickstarr, I don't think
Tassie has seen many PI Detectors yet....?
and with the sensitivity of the Whites you
can't go wrong.
Show us some photos of Tassie gold...
cheers

in the future.

Cheers

Mike.

thanks Mick for showing us some Gold

to consider coming to Tassie instead of

How big was the piece?

I have a mate that has a Gold Bug 2, bought it used, never could understand how to operate as he had no instructions. I used my phone to access google and found a pdf manual for it in about a minute. I told him the GB2 is rated as the best fine gold detector for Alaska but takes some skill to learn the balance and disc.
I told him about my Whites GMT with the auto balance feature and he was totally blown aware at how easy it was to just turn on and go with the GMT.

Yeah you got that at a great price, they sell new in Alaska for about $750, I guess in Oz that translates to around $1000 or so. Its a great VLF detector at 48 khz, keep that in mind when shopping for coils, they have to be the 50khz variety. They say you can get 40 hours off the 8 AA batteries using headphones.

the piece weighed in at just over half a gram and was found in a out of the way place , and just remember we have a couple more spots to try 2 old mining leases that are still under lease that we are in negotiations about at the moment plus some private property that we are also looking into that an old friend has bought that he wants us to prospect for him and over the years this area has produced up to 15 oz but has not been worked much at all and being private we can use more gear than we do now , here,s hoping all goes well in next 12 months as weather will be setting in soon

cheers mick

to Mike54 and bedrock thought i,d show you latest bit , yes found with gmt in tassie , have posted also in members finds but thought i,d drop it on here , nearly 2 years research , old mullock heaps at long forgotten mines , bloody hard to get in but who cares when you get one at 5.88 grams , the picture tells the story


cheers starry[img][/img]

Gday Mick yes it is a very nice nuggie you got mate, you will have to get stuck into that deck and get your self back over there and get all of it's rello's (brothers and sisters) don't forget Nan and Par. well done mate.

Cheers.

Mike.

Hi starry
wow, that is a seriously nice nugget, the old timer who missed that would turn around
in his grave, seeing this pic.
It just goes to show that research pays.
Hope you're onto more.
all the best
bedrock

thanks guys for the appreciation of our hard work , would be back there now but for wrotten weather down here can,t detect to good in the rain , even panning is fun in the wet not




cheers starry

My GMT is being posted out to me and I can hardly wait I'm gonna take time off my job to use it, only problem seems to be, where to go as a newbee any suggestions I think I'll start in my own back yard just to make sure you never know haha.

gday natenwhy I started in the backyard but if you want some settings for oz conditions I can email some to you , just pm me your email address , did you buy it here in oz or from the states as oz setup a bit different from state setup




cheers starry
