The Minelab SDC 2300 is a compact, waterproof gold metal detector with an 8-inch Monoloop round search coil. It is a mid-range detector made for finding very small gold nuggets, down to sub-gram size, on land and underwater.
It is a one-piece detector with no assembly required. The mechanical platform was designed and tested to military standards. MPF (Multi Period Fast) technology uses very fast Pulse Induction switching between transmit and receive signals. Little residual transmit signal is present during the receive cycle, so very small gold gives a clear, sharp response. The detector is sensitive to small gold in heavily mineralized ground.
The audio response gives discrimination through pitch and tone for ferrous and non-ferrous targets. Amplitude and duration indicate target depth. A louder, shorter sound means a shallow target. A quieter, broader sound means a deep, large target. A target that sounds off several times in one swing is near the surface or on it.
