Question about Bricks

[McDigger]

Hope someone can help me out here . I was in an area today where there was an old mill. Didn't find much still to much snow and frost , but some of the hits i got i only dug up bricks and piece's of bricks , question is do some red bricks send a beep?

Very possible. The red in clay is a natural ferric ore. Enough iron in the silt they were formed from would make them "hot".

If you come across any yellowish bricks, give me a call.

I want a yellow brick too.!!!

I haven't ran into to many bricks (especially the yellow ones ) but concrete sure likes to hit hard on my detector so I'm sure the brick is the same principle.

Yes, they do. I hunted a field that had an old farmhouse and that is all I ever found was chunks of brick. Brick and concrete. I don't know what was in them, but they sure sounded good.

concrete tends to have rebar which would send your detector screaming.
