If anyone ever questions the sensitivity of your H3, here's a couple of true stories you can pass on.
1. Once, out in a desert, I got a hit on my H3 (set for gold) that led me around 120 yards away to a dry wash between two low hills. After moving several bucket-fulls of dirt to the side and scanning them with the H3, I was able to collect the entire hit into one bucket. Then, using water, I was able to concentrate the hit to the bottom 2 inches of dirt, and discard the rest, always scanning to be sure that I wasn't throwing any of the original hit away. After panning down the remaining concentrate, I got to black sand, but I could see no gold. At least, not with the naked eye. Under a microscope, I could see bits of gold that had collected in this one spot I found, probably because at one time, it was a small pool where these particles could settle. These are what rub off a nugget as it tumbles in running water and why nuggets have rounded edges.
2. Again, set for gold, I tracked down a hit that was close to 2 miles away. It ended up being three rocks in a stream bed under around a foot of sand. They each contained some ore, but none of it was visible on the surface of the rocks.
Sometimes I wish I could turn DOWN the sensitivity on my H3! But it's nice to know that with practice and patience, the H3 WORKS!

Yes we are working on a bunch of enhancements, however they come slow as we want them to be perfected or very close prior to adding them to our platform. We have had an exciting week also and are sending 3 fantastic samples to our assayer.
Life continues to be good with H3..
