Features

  • KIT INCLUDES: Minelab Gold Monster 1000 Metal Detector | 10x6" DD Waterproof Search Coil | 5" DD Waterproof Search Coil | Headphones | Lithium-Ion Battery | 8 x AA Batteries | Lens Cleaning Cloth | Minelab 2 Year Control Box & Coil Warranty
  • 45 KHZ VLF & 24-BIT SIGNAL PROCESSOR: This primary combination greatly boosts sensitivity to gold beyond that of other single frequency VLF detectors over a wide range of nugget sizes, without introducing excess noise and false signals.
  • IMPROVED DISCRIMINATION: The GOLD MONSTER 1000 also has improved ferrous/non-ferrous discrimination and copes better with conductive (salty) soils than higher frequency detectors, making it the perfect choice to maximise your gold recovery.
  • VERY LOW FREQUENCY: VLF (Very Low Frequency) is a conventional single frequency sine wave continuous transmission technology. This is the traditional type of technology used in most basic metal detectors. Single frequency sine wave detectors create an electro-magnetic field, which is transmitted into the ground in a continuous wave. The receive signal processing has improved enormously.

  • Excellent VLF gold detector. Highly recommend. Also can be used to find relics, coins.
Very user friendly, easy to use. The GM 1000 has been around for about 9 years and is one of the best VLF detectors on the market, for the price, for finding really small gold nuggets. There are dozens of videos on Youtube on how to use this. Highly recommend viewing those videos, before you buy it, to see if it is right for you. I use this in SoCal placer gold deposits and it definately works for finding gold. You MUST watch the Youtube videos on how to "ground Balance" this in order for it to work properly. Works outstanding, once "ground balanced" which is easy to do. Its is very light and very easy to use. ... show more

  • Amazing metal detector.
This is my second "Nice" metal detector and by far the best one I have. Works very well and detects very small objects. I have not found any gold with it yet but I did test it with some very small gold samples. Works amazingly well.

  • Bought it used and I'm impressed
Wanted to save a few bucks so I bought it used, and this thing came brand new! It was an open box but never seen dirt! Great deal! Super sensitive! One of the best nugget shooters for sure, been testing on a tiny chunk of gold, need tweezers to pick it up and it hammers it!

  • Iron Monster 1000
I researched this product as a beginner and saw the minelab videos as well. They advertise the device for beginners, but you soon learn the metal detector is not accurate for detecting just gold. You must have more expert knowledge on reading the gauge. It is not a "that's gold" or "thats junk or iron" device. Its praises are very over hyped. I used it twice to help search for placer gold in my pans, but a lesser device for way less money does the same thing. Not happy at all. ... show more

  • Best metal detector under $1,000. Awesome!!
I never had a metal detector so I did a lot of research. I asked Jeff Williams who is a gold miner and geologists with his own gold mining YouTube. Works awesome. I easily found gold in my first try. Do not buy cheap metal doctors. Thank you Jeff Williams for recommending Mind Lab. Best buy I ever did. No ground balancing just turn it on and you will easily find gold!!! ... show more
