[QUOTE="Moneybox, post: 654944, member: 3960"] I've never been to Tibooburra but I'm told the gold us usually very small, WalnLiz might find it differently but most of can't compete with their expertise. I general the best metal detector for the job is the best you can afford. I just watched the field test at Tibooburra of the new yet to be released Garrett Axiom. It seemed to perform well there and in the same price range I would expect the Minelab GPX6000 to do a similar job. The GPX4500 is an excellent older design detector that is suited to a wide range of prospecting but you'd need to have a suitable coil for job. I have a nice little Whites GMT VLF detector but since buying the PI machines we've never used it when hunting for gold however it's an excellent treasure detector preferred over the Equinox. I think the Minelab SDC2300 should perform well there too but the GPX6000 has the advantage of being able to cover a lot more ground because of the larger coil size. I hope this may be of some assistance in making your decision. [/QUOTE]
