    Gold Spear

    O.K., this forum has sat long enough. Has anyone ever used a Gold Spear to locate placer deposits? I just read an article from the early 90's on drywashing and the author was using a Gold Spear to help him find ideal places to start drywashing. I've seen the ads for one in treasure and prospecting magizines. The guy standing next to a river with a long probe sticking in the water. Just curious about them. -Robert-
    Is that a jewel encrusted bottle cap?

    Gold Spear

    LOL Robert,in the mid 80's a fellow tried to demonstrate a Goldspear at our camp on the Fraser River here in BC. Everywhere he poked that thing in the ground around the camp,the lights lit up. Just when he was getting quite frustrated and thinking the unit must be defective I let him off the hook. I pointed out that the soil and sand of the camp was dumped there by a bucketline dredge that made holes for the bridge foundations that we were camped beside. SO,do they work,it sure seemed so,at least his did. Only problem was,it was detecting the fine flour gold that was darned near impossible to recover. Hence the LOL. Fred

    Don't waste your hard earned money,They tell ya gold is everywhere,and it is microscopically.They can't penetrate in over 2/3 of the places ya try'm and then the rod bends and open your wallet again.Buy a good detector and you'll be much happier,wealthier and wiser.Tons a au 2 u all-John
