    I've honestly wanted to try it, never got around to buying the actual detector though :p

    Btw, looks like you have found some awesome stuff :)

    I think it's fun to try but I may look weird pointing that detector on the ground...

    Yeah I've got a metal detector (a cheap Tracker IV), but I've barely used it. Especially over summer, it's impossible to dig anything out of the ground here when the ground is like concrete.

    This is certainly very unique service and hopefully, you must be winning many hearts doing it.

    Btw...what is the success ratio? Do you generally find everything that you begin the search for? :rolleyes:

    On a lighter note,
    Perth is anyway rich in oil and mineral reserves...Were you able to strike black gold by chance? :eek:

    Regards,
