How do you tell the difference between ground noise and a true target signal?

[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 653052, member: 4728"] I‘ve also wondered why charcoal patches seem to give a signal some times but not every time. Maybe as suggested could be more to do with the burning of the clay around a burning root. This would provide a mechanism for altering the soil mineralization around the charcoal patch. When detecting I often encounter ground noise from a small patches of deeper coloured clay associated with charcoal clearly present and I just assumed it was the charcoal responsible. But then I can also remember encountering ground noise from the same reactive clay patches of a similar burnt colour without any significant charcoal around. Maybe I didn’t inspect hard enough.
