Minelab Gold Monster 1000 review. Testing how to use for small gold.

  • Spent a day on a small creek known for it's fine gold with the Gold Monster 1000 from Minelab. This detector is known for being able to detect fine gold and I wanted to see how small it could pick up. The gold minster 1000 from Minelab did an amazing job finding very small gold. I was very happy with it's performance. And I had a great day on the river metal detecting and gold panning.

    When using the Gold Monster Jeff Williams says, “Listen for the wobble-pop” when you hear the machine make that sound you know you’re on the gold!

    Amazing video as always Dan. I'm not one for gold exploration myself, but being from your region (Vernonite here), I love the videos for the local aspect, as well as your great way of engaging the audience. Happy to hear you're on the mend, and I look forward to your next set of videos post recovery! If you ever need someone to just carry stuff around on your outings, I am always willing to adventure. In part from you, and some other BC UA-camrs it changed around my 2020 to do a LOT of local exploration. As a result, I explored 82 different BC waterfalls in 2020, and am targeting 90 more this year. Moyie Falls is on the list now as well thanks to you! Stay healthy, and stay happy! Best of 2021 to you and your family!

    Detecting is a good way for someone to get outside and get a little sun (or night moon!) and maybe find a few old coins, some cool relics from bygone times, and even some silver coins and gold jewelry. The fact that it's just plain fun even when you're not finding anything good does a lot to help you along.

    Just a heads up I’ve had all iron signals turn to gold after getting down to the target with the monster depending on soil and moisture conditions. Also if anyone uses the monster with the coil under water remove the protective cover first to prevent false signals from it filling with water great day and finds on the creek thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏻👊🏻 P.S. nice placement and chasing of the fish to get him on camera👌🏼

    Man I can't wait until my gold monster shows up. I ordered one yesterday and I am excited!! I bought the vanquish 540 last month and it found gold one time. The problem is that it doesn't show if it is really gold or not that I am finding so I have found tons of metal scrap. I will use the gold monster all the time now and will be saving up for the gpx5000. I don't care much for the gpz7000 so once I get the gpx5000 I will have all the metal detectors I will need! Thanks for the video and added excitement while I wait!

    Dan, it's neat to FIANLLY see a metal detector that can locate smaller pieces, like the ones you found in the video! All the detectors I've seen prior to this wouldn't set off for pieces as small as the ones you found. In the area I reside in, that's IMPORTANT to me, as we find small gold here!

    Great episode, Dan, thank you. Also, @J.A.Ratt85 You had me cracking up, you 100% beat me to this comment!!! "This episode was brought to you thanks to support from viewers like you." I feel like I just ended up on a PBS show.....hahaha
