  • Evaluating the Axiom discrimination system in the field - Generally, discrimination on pulse detectors is weak and does not work that well. But the Axiom pulse detector is a newer product with some different engineering, so it should be better. In this video, I am field testing the discrimination system on real "in the ground" targets. I was happy with the results - watch the video and take a look for yourself.

    Great video! I would have liked to see a gold target but as always you keep it real. I also would like to see a side by side video with the 24k. I know that would be a bit of a pain going back and forth. I know the pulse would punch deeper but i think it would be a very intresting video. I think this video waa really informative that would help out a newbie alot. Knowing your detector really well helps tremendously. That marriage takes time a lot of field use. Many detecorists never reach that level of mastery.

    That’s fairly impressive.
    I think of the places I have walked away from because of way too much old timers trash. This machine would be very useful in those areas.
    Can’t wait until you do some gold testing. I will admit I have Minelab PI machines but it’s certainly good to keep up with what is on the market.

      They are totally different technologies. the Garrett ATX is a VLF machine, the Axiom is a pulse induction. Like comparing apples to elephants.

    ~I would like to see a Garrett Axiom “vs” Minelab GPZ 7000 >comparison< with similar sized coils on different sized buried targets (nuggets).
    ~Also very refreshing to hear somebody (Chris Ralph) say T’ar’get correctly right. Not T’o’get incorrectly wrongly as the Australians say it on their detecting videos which drives me nuts.

    • @ChrisRalph
      @ChrisRalph  Před rokem +1

      The 7000 would win at most tasks, but it costs twice as much. The advantage of the Axiom is that it has discrimination.

    • @royjohnson465
      @royjohnson465 Před rokem

      @@ChrisRalph~Yes I agree the 7000 would win is a correct assumption.
      ~Also the very best discrimination technique for working in ‘trashy’ goldfield areas would be two people working together as a team, one person hunting with a PI (7000) and the other one carrying a coin hunting type (Equinox or Manticore) VLF turned off and only turning it on to ID check (trash/treasure) targets in discrimination mode, pinpoint, and help dig with the other person in partnership. The second person carrying the VLF could also carry a rifle or shotgun on a shoulder sling for protection from bears and cougars.

      There are many factors, you must choose for yourself. Choosing a metal detector for yourself takes some thought. Check out my video on it: czcams.com/video/EF4oFvSHbJo/video.html

    If I hit a target and use the Iron discrimination buttron , if it isn't ferrous and a grunting sound what will the tone sound like if any?
    On the Axiom of course.

    • @ChrisRalph
      @ChrisRalph  Před 9 měsíci +1

      You either get no tone if its unsure or a tone like when its not on disc if the detector thinks its good. You can only walk away from the grunts - if its is unsure it could be gold - the machine just can't tell.

    What should a 58 gram platinum nugget sell for?

    But does the nugget being raw effect the price?

    • @ChrisRalph

      There are many factors that determine price. Being raw does affect price as no platinum nugget is pure platinum, there are always other metals mixed in.

      It's easy to expect something, but physics dictates that distinguishing metals when the target could be of any size or depth is essentially impossible.

    I'm sure that you did. It's just I can't remember seeing it. I've seen a lot of the gold that you have found. But usually that is when you forgot to turn on your camera or something went wrong with the camera or you forgot to bring the camera..I've seen a lots of trash but gold not so much. 🙃

      I assume you are pulling my leg - or maybe you just have only watched a couple of my detecting videos. I think this is the only one where I dig only trash, and the one that was off camera - that is the only one like that. All the other detecting videos I have gold.

      @@ChrisRalph Nah. I've been watching your videos for a long time now and just can't remember if you ever dug up some gold. I'm not saying you didn't it's just i can't remember seeing it. I've seen you you get gold with the sluth box and other ways. Just not with the metal detector. Maybe you did when you went to Alaska, but again I'm just not sure. I guess I'm just getting old and forgetful. It's probably because more trash comes up it's a little harder to remember when you did get gold. Not that I'm complaining mind you. The worst day prospecting is better than the best day at work.
