Minelab Gold Monster 1000 Metal Detector | 3317-0005

Easy Automatic Small Gold Hunter

Designed to help you find more gold with less effort, the GOLD MONSTER 1000 combines high-speed 24-bit signal processing with a powerful 45 kHz VLF frequency for exceptional sensitivity to even the smallest gold. Two coil sizes give you flexibility across varied terrain, while automatic ground balance, sensitivity, and noise cancel reduce setup and guesswork. A clear Gold Chance Indicator and simple controls make every swing more informed, so you can detect with greater confidence, even in salty or variable soils.

45 kHz VLF & 24-Bit Signal

A 45 kHz VLF frequency and 24-bit processor boost sensitivity to gold. Detect all sizes with better signal clarity, fewer false tones, and enhanced audio response in mineralised soils.

Fully Automatic Setup

Automatic ground balance, sensitivity and noise cancellation adjust in real time. Ideal for gold detecting, it streamlines operation so you can focus more on the search.

Light and Compact

Lightweight detector weighs just 1.33 kg (2.94 lbs) and collapses down to 94.4 cm (37.2 in) for easy transport and all-day detecting comfort

Improved Discrimination

Improved ferrous and non-ferrous discrimination, with better performance in conductive (salty) soils than higher-frequency detectors. A strong choice for prospectors aiming to maximise gold recovery in varied ground conditions.

45 kHz VLF & 24-Bit Signal

The high-powered 45 kHz VLF frequency works alongside a 24-bit signal processor to deliver outstanding sensitivity to gold, from small flakes to larger nuggets. This combination enhances response and improves clarity, allowing you to confidently detect across varied ground conditions without the usual noise or false signals.

Manual & Auto Sensitivity

Manual and Auto Sensitivity gives you full control over performance. Choose from 10 manual levels for precise adjustment, or switch to Auto Sensitivity for adaptive control. Auto+ provides extra sensitivity while still adapting to changing ground conditions.

Gold Chance Indicator

Get a real-time visual gauge of target probability, with readings shifting right for valuable metals like gold and left for ferrous trash or hot rocks. Make faster, more informed digging decisions.

Easy-Trak Ground Balance

Easy-Trak automatically monitors and adjusts to changing ground conditions, reducing false signals and improving target detection. It keeps the detector stable and responsive in variable soils, without requiring manual input.

GM 05 Coil

Waterproof to 1 m (3.3 ft), the GM 05 5" Double-D coil is designed for versatility and precision. Its compact size makes it ideal for detecting in tight spaces.

Universal Shaft Adapter

The Universal Shaft Adapter mounts the control box and coil to various shafts, creating a lightweight and flexible setup. Ideal for detecting in tight or remote locations where a full-size shaft isn’t practical.
