tounsi85, it will depend on the size object. The bigger the object, the deeper it will detect it to. So why don't you tell us what size object you have in mind, that you think your looking for. Then we can venture some depths. Ie.: coin size? Jar sized? toaster size? Refrigerator size? Volkwagon sized ? etc....

50 to 200 kg of gold ?? That's 110 to 440 POUNDS of gold dude ! I'll address your tech. question in a bit, but first, want to address this part of it. Let me guess: You're either from somewhere in Asia (probably Phillipines), or Mexico. Right ? Those locations are filled with superstition and lore of "gold in every cave", blah blah. And of course, each story is "iron-clad true". Sure. ::) So to start with: Any time a story starts like this, I'm immediately suspect that we're dealing with urban legends, myth, superstition, etc... I mean, do the math the current price of gold per ounce, then multiply it out through the weight you're talking about ! You'll be immediately talking about $2,000,000 to $5,000,000 worth of gold melt value alone !

But getting back to your tech. question: Gold is very dense material, so "100 pounds" of it (like in brick bar form/shape), might only be as big as a toaster or whatever. As such, sure, the machine you're talking about will find that stuff. Or you can simply get a 2-box unit (like a TM-808). It will get a toaster sized object down to perhaps 4 or 5 ft.

And let me guess: This object is, of necessity, insanely deep, right? Nevermind that an object is equally hidden whether it's only 1 ft. or 10 ft. deep. Either depth is equally invisible from the surface, for "hiding" purposes. But despite that, the treasure legends always mandate that the treasure is crazy depths.

Once you're done searching for that one, come to the USA, and there's plenty of "lost mine" type treasure legends here, to keep you busy for a lifetime. The stories are a dime a dozen.
