Metal detecting in Australia and self help page for other detecting addicts. If it's spendable coins, Gold Nuggets, buried treasure or even chopped up aluminum cans, I will uncover it and place it in my hoard. Like Pirates of old I hoard my finds, display the oddities and lock away the secret valuables. Metal detecting is a great hobby and leads you often into a historical journey as you research
your more interesting and rare finds. As an XP Detectors supplier and distributor in Australia we carry the full range of XP Metal detectors and accessories Imported directly from the XP Factory in France. We are also certified Minelab Dealers and carry the full range of Minelab gear. From the Go-find to the GPZ 7000 we can get you into the correct machine to suit your needs. Anyone can buy a detector and start shooting for coins in the local park tomorrow, but be warned, you will get addicted and your equipment needs will grow beyond your wildest dreams.

Ratchet Straps? Who would of thought that one of the most popular products in the store at Sofala has been these. I must admit I have a set or 2 myself. Damn handy things.

Sale preview. This specimen weighs exactly 100 grams as it is. Just finalising SG and will be on the market.
The Gold creates a circuit through this rock with a multimeter. I suspect Gold content will be pretty good.
Make a lovely slice!!

Righto then
More depth is the selling point of the 8000. Yet, No better than a 6 on the small stuff as per minelabs presentation.
So is this a cash grab that could have been achieved with a software update and a new coil for the 7, or has minelab genuinely made something new?
They have form for using the same software to release new machines, equinox 6,7,8 and 900. Vanquish x 6 models, not to mention xterra and whatever else is running some version of multi IQ.
Is this true innovation or just a 7 with a bit more grunt and a bad looking coil?
Thoughts? Im on the Fence wether to buy.

Loving life in Sofala, Today's big decision........
Traditional or lemonade scones for the Sofala show scone bake off?
A year and a bit ago I would have been working out ways to cut others dealers throats with the new release.
Much more pleasant now.
I think traditional........

2 Questions with the new Minelab release.
1. What will it do that current machines can't?
2. What price point will it sell at?
Discuss.......
Interested in your thoughts.
