I have been using solid brass L-rods to dowse for gold and have had pretty good success during my indoor practice. Just recently I tried it outdoors by having my wife hide a nugget in the back yard but not buried, just where ever she could hide it under or behind something. And I was able to find it each time, although I had some false alarms where the rods would cross but the nugget wasn't there.
Gold is my specialty and my favorite thing to prospect for, but up to now I have never tried to find gold by dowsing. I'm still new to dowsing and I know there is no substitute for practice.
However I am wondering since some dowsers use a witness to aid in discrimination. Would plating the rods in 24K gold be even better, especially if you only want to use them exclusively in the quest for gold?
Has anyone tried this?
Sincerely,
Buddy~
