Gold nugget detectors
are designed specifically for the optimal detection of
natural gold ore in its common forms of occurrence in the
earth's surface.
A metal detector must
have be ability to accommodate the specific environmental
conditions encounter while gold prospecting. Since gold is
most often found in highly mineralized soil, it is necessary
to have a ground balance circuit which has the range to
cancel out positive and negative mineralization extremes.
As a professional, you
follow professional discipline as dig the metal targets
detected. As a hobbyist gold nugget hunter, you would prefer
to use a familiar trash metal discriminator to eliminate the
trash iron and aluminum. The bottom line is, a professional
know the job at hand and if there is metal in the ground, to
dig it. The hobbyist must come to an understanding of what
it means to use a discriminator and the unfavorable results
of walking over nuggets without knowing it.
When gold nugget
hunting or professional prospecting, one should not use a
discriminator. Fine gold will easily be lost with the use of
these circuits. What is finding a nugget worth to you? Are
you willing to dig up the entire area's worth of iron to
find a gold nugget? This is the bottom line to anyone's
level of success.

Detector Technology Refinements
Refinements brought
upon the industry by innovative thinking are results of some
engineers looking to the potentials of utilizing digital
electronics and microprocessor computer chips in their
proven detector circuits.
Gold Nugget
Detector Technology Field Testing
Here at Casanova's we
maintain a computer division with fully qualified Computer
Technology Laboratory, as well as a specialized department
for field testing metal detectors for our Metal Detector
Center. We have acquired the gold nugget detector models
that claim the latest advancements and refinements in nugget
detection. We are an independent testing facility which must
purchase the detectors we tests. We are not given any
special consideration by any of the manufacturers. They
simply appear to not care about people in the field testing
their machines... go figure since we are a major dealer -
have been since most of these manufactures began their
businesses.
Field testing is done
in the mineralized soils found in southeastern Wisconsin in
Milwaukee and surround counties that have been left behind
by glaciered deposits. The full range of "Hot Rocks" are
found in local city parks that provide a great place to test
machines in actual conditions. Gold nugget detectors are
further tested in actual gold bearing regions of past gold
rush eras. Colorado, Utah, Washington, and Victoria
Australia, are some of the places Mr. Casanova has
personally field tested gold nugget metal detectors over the
past 25 years.
Fisher Research
Laboratories' new Gold Strike was field tested during a fact
gather expedition by Mr. Casanova, in the Central Victoria
goldfields of Australia in 2002. The new GMT by White's, the
new
Garrett Infinium
LS, and the new Compass Electronics AU52 and AU2000 are
all in line for evaluation and field testing. The testing
criteria includes feedback from local customers - both short
and long term users of metal detectors and gold nugget
hunting.
Premiere customer support includes free consultation with
Mr. Casanova as well as having the chance to tag-along on
some of his adventures.
