IRON DISCRIMINATION
IRON DISCRIMINATION
Discrimination is the ability of a detector to distinguish between different types of
metal objects and to assist the user in identifying a target.
Some goldfields are littered with 'rubbish', e.g. metal objects which are of little
value and are an annoyance to detector users.
The GP 3000 is capable of rejecting many iron objects while still detecting
non-ferrous metals. The ability of the detector to discriminate ferrous targets
means that, while detecting in littered goldfields, much of the iron rubbish may be
ignored, with a high probability that valuable targets will not be missed.
