Winter Blues

Well it's been very cold and wet in the Golden Triangle.
Still managing to get out here and there for that swing to relieve the gold fever.

More product testing with new coils still to be added to our ever growing list of performers.

Great to hear from happy customers.



This photo from a happy DETECH customer from the west.

Approx 70 grams of the good stuff , that's the inspiring stuff that makes you dust off the machine and get out there.

Stay tuned we hope to have a Demo day at Daisy Hill later this year.

Testing 18x12 open Mono

Well it's been extremely busy with new coils being added to the already comprehensive Detech range.

The latest additions being the 15x10 & 18x12 open mono elliptical coils.

                                                        "15x10 open Mono"

Today I got to spend some more time swininging the 18x12 coil. Very smooth running coil,
Great coil for covering large areas, even running this coil over ground strew with sticks I didn't    encounter too many snags.

This coil is light enough to swing all day coming in at 900 grams and the smaller coil hitting the scales at 770 grams both complete with skid plates.


Managed to snag a nice 4.1 gram nugget at approx 120 mm, and then later picked up a .7 gram nugget at 100mm, very stable and rugged coil , bump was not an issue with this coil.

We've also added a 15x8 closed DD coil for use on the older machines, and for those who want a DD coil too handle hot ground,  Use your iron reject and detect trashy areas, that others steer clear of.

Our 6" & 8" monos are gathering momentum , with some great feed back regarding these coils.

More testing of prototypes to come in the next few months.

Happy hunting

The Man From Bulgaria.


Well it's been a long time in the making, but with Marianne's hard work and persistence with our government departments.
We finally have our good friend Slavi here in Australia to do some gold hunting.

We've been nailing the usual feed of Nano gold, but the other day Slavi or Mr Slavi as I call him nailed a beautiful 12.5 gram nugget, these moments will be treasured by him and us just to see that look on his face.

Weve been testing other coils the new 6" mono and also I have a proto type 15x8 DD.
this coil came in very handy the other day after Slavi had picked up he's pride  and joy.

I slipped on the new DD coil, and worked with iron reject on to eliminate some of the iron Junk.
Well it paid off I nailed a 3 gram nugget. Still more work to do in this area.

Detech are going to send me an 8"DD coil for testing this will be handy for those tight places, and will give the older machines another option.

The testing continues with the 8" mono and the 6" mono selling well more developments to come stay tuned.


The 12.5 grammer.

Detech 8" Mono


Well this 8" coil is still amazing us,

Marianne hijacked the coil from me today and put it through its paces, and picked up 5 nuggets from an area we've both been working for years these nuggets should not have been there, or so we thought.

These nuggets were all dug at reasonable depth as seen in the photo.

This will be a great coil which will enable some colour for the day, if there is small gold around this coil will sniff it out!



The larger target on the coil is a small sprocket or gear I would think from an old time peace.


Another happy customer,always a great day when you find gold, even more satisfying when you thought it was all gone.

I've finally done it


Well this new 8 " round mono is truly amazing I've broken my record,
And managed to pull the smallest nugget I've ever detected.


Yep that's  right , your not seeing things it weighs a mere .026 of a gram.
Any one can find big gold,I'm sure the old timers would have been proud of this effort .

This new coil is so smooth and quiet in operation not to mention sensitive.

The new coil is listed on the website and now available.

Product testing


Well times have been busy with so many new and exciting products to test.
Testing of the new 18" mono open design coil as pictured above, has been very successful, resulting in recent listing on our site, This coil is still sensitive to sub gram nuggets and packs a punch on depth.

Totally new to Detech is the 8" mono show below, strong mount and robust construction, to handle the knocks and bumps when working an area hard to clean up those small nuggets left by others.

This coil will be listed very shortly and will be priced favorably to compete.



We've also been testing the Detech EDS Winner & the EDS Plus 2. Both of these are VLF machines.
Which have proven to be great contenders in this part of the market. The Winner is full auto ground balance , a true switch on and go machine, complete with nugget hunting settings and discrimination for coin shooting.
The EDS Plus 2 has manual ground balance in all metal mode, and an auto mode as well.
Managed to pick up 2 small speci's while testing.


Both of these machine will be listed on our web site soon,

Well stay tuned as Detech still have more new coils to come, a new mid sized elliptical mono  , and a large elliptical Mono.
