What do you call metal detecting in Spanish?

If you answer, indicate which Spanish-speaking country that's in—if there's a difference.

Thanks.

Detección de metales

Not sure which country it is used in or if it covers all of them.......

Doc beav has got it. That would be for "metal detecting" And the detector itself, if I'm not mistaken, is "detector de metal" . And you can add variations of "en la tierra" ("in the dirt" or "in the ground"). And "pasatiempo" (for "hobby" or "pastime").
