Today we went to the AuQuest GD1000 Demonstration, mostly apart from my mate Allan, myself and Berndt (Reeds Prospecting Supply), were coin hunters. The demo was in a patch of laterite which was quite noisy ground. Targets were pre-buried by Gerald (One of the designers). The demo included Berndt using the GP3500 to establish how that machine picked up the targets compared with the GD1000. The GP was quite unstable on the ground picking up the mineralisation and unable to balance it out. However, it did find all the targets with a good response. Both detectors using a 14"DD coil. Most impressive was the GD1000 run without any external noise completely quiet until it went over the targets. After the official demonstration Gerald allowed others to touch and feel the unit. My mate Allan started to see how it went from a user point of view.
For those of you in WA (Perth) AuQuest are doing a demo on the GD1000 in the Darling Ranges off Canning Road this coming weekend. They state in the invites that they will have Minelab GP's also to demonstrate against. I hope to go and have a look see and my mate is taking his GPM to test against also. Should be interesting to say the least. I will keep you all informed of the outcome
