I excluded the house with a fence in black box area. Check the red spots first, again they can be rather deep.

Is there a reason why some is in circles and some in squares ?

Yes, I think there was a difference, if the boxes or the circles turn out to be more for veins/hardrock gold, then the other type markings (either box or circles) should be better for placer deposits. Also some copper ore contains gold and platinum, which can make dowsed signals seem different. You'll really need to check and see what is there.

I'd check the circles first, I'm thinking the hits on those had more prospecting potential, but it was hard to tell for sure. I dowsed some GE maps once for someone in Zimbabwe. a country in S Africa. To understand the signals, had to search for info. The GE maps included the Falcon mine. The country has a lot of copper mining with gold and especially large amounts of platinum.

"The mining industry in Zimbabwe is well developed and evidence of early mining in the country goes back thousands of years. Ownership of current mining operations includes a range of small to medium domestic private companies, four large locally listed mining Companies (Bindura Nickel, HwangeColliery, Falcon Gold and RioZim) and a number of large international mining and international cement companies.Thestate is directly involved in mining. The Zimbabwe Mining Development Corporation (ZMDC has equity interests in inactive copper mining and processing facilities and gold mines. ZMDC has also been assigned the Marange diamond mining operation in eastern Zimbabwe, currently in dispute. Subsidiaries of the state-owned Industrial Development Corporation of Zimbabwe produce industrial minerals and mineral-based commodities, including clay, fertilizers, glass, phosphate rock, and stone. Zisco, in which the Government holds a majority interest, operates a crude steel plant, and aZisco subsidiary operates iron ore and limestonemines.Foreign investment is concentrated in the cement, chromium, coal, diamond, gold, nickel, PGM, and steel sectors."

Since you are located in S Africa, might be good to research the different types of gold geology found in your area (if you haven't already).

Here is a minig link.

For prospecting you need to have places where coarse gold is found, hopefully there are some in your maps.

thanks red
Gold flake, I've been checking the map again, but for traces of past human activity. There seems to be a lot of both more ancient and very recent sites. You might want to check some spots for stored processed gold or man made gold objects also.The red boxes must be military relics.

These are the associations for most things I mark in red or green.

Red circles/boxes for loose battlefield relics, coins/jewelry or other artifacts of value, from surface down to 1-2 feet deep. Red Xs usually mark deeper loose coins or artifacts of value, caches, cave/tunnel treasure.

Green for archaeological type of hits, including military battlefields and also the non-metallic targets such as flint points, pottery, carved rocks/trees, old foundation sites, etc.

The color is going out on my old computer monitor, so if the color is off, let me know. I hope to soon have the new laptop with external monitor set up in it's place.

Hi Red desett
First of all i whant to thanks for taking your time in dowsing this pic for me.
Believe me, for some time now i have been looking at this picture for hours at a time and trying to understand what could be there and why it is where it is and how it could have got there.
If you say prosessed Au, witch circles could that be.
The area you dowsed was more of a top view.
i am sending you pics that looks more 3D so that you can get the idea of how the surroundings 3D1.jpg 3D2.jpg 3D3.jpg 3D4.jpg looks like that you have dowsed.
Hope you like the pics.
