Gold Found with my MXT
Reply Quote
I found my first piece of gold with my MXT yesterday. I was getting a small beep on a quartz rock so I brought it home and crushed it. Sure enough there is a little flake of gold in it. I will try and get a picture of it later.

Hey Kev,

Way to go man, that's really Cool, you are going to have to carve a knotch in the shaft of your MXT, and when your carve enough of them that your shaft breaks in half you should be able to afford a new shaft,LOL

I am sending you a PM.

Abear, That was the rock that I dug up on top of the hill that I was getting the faint beep on. Same spot we got the nail.

Gold seeker, Not going to carve a notch in the shaft. Maybe put a spot of gold paint in the shaft for each pieece I find.

Kev

Tarheel that that must be an old picture of yourself your alot uglyer now. All you have to do is ask and you can use the MXT.

When I find where the wife hid the camera I will try and get a picture of the gold

That is awesome Kev! I have walked several miles with my detector and still no gold to speak of. Don't let CON get a hold of it or he will probably find a nice outcropping and then you will have to quit the computer business and become a hard rock miner. LOL

Kevin,

Good for you!! Can't wait to see how small/big your gold was :)

Hey, what VDI and sound did you get?

Were you using headphones or open speaker?

Any settings you can remember as to the knobs, etc??

I have my MXT ready to go gold hunting!
