I am looking to buy a new detector.
Besides the coins and relics I want one for prospecting, nugget hunting and finding those high mineral areas. Also water proof!
My camera and a couple of cell phones are junk now.
I was looking at one of those mine-lab units; what is your take? Pros Cons

The term water proof hinders severly your search for a good detector . Weather resistant is more what most metal detectors are like. Sounds like you might need 2 different detectors.

I have been looking at the Excalibur II
the flyer's says it is a multi-frequency BBS technology and automatic ground balance make it the ideal machine to work in all beach and underwater environments. Eliminate unwanted trash and still find the treasures other detectors can not. Water proof to 200 feet.

I am curious if this machine will work well as a nugget shooter?
If I jump in the drink :tongue3: it will work tomorrow when I wake up. :thumbsup:
