[QUOTE="Guest, post: 101296"] The SDC will handle the mineralisation without an issue. The other plus for the SDC is that in the tight areas where hitting rocks etc. with the coil there is no falsing at all. From all reports this is an issue with the ATX - it will false signal if the coil is bumped. The only "hot" rocks I have picked up with it is basalt & this was restricted to bantam chook egg size or larger bits but it was only a very low precentage of them in comparison to the coverage on the particular area. The SDC is also very immune to EMI - not completely but it is barely an issue after using a GPX. If you get a chance have a test run with one - I think you will find it to be a very stable, easy to use machine after using the xterra. [/QUOTE]
