Highly recommend. Also can be used to find relics, coins. - Very user friendly, easy to use. The GM 1000 has been around for about 9 years and is one of the best VLF detectors on the market, for the price, for finding really small gold nuggets. There are dozens of videos on Youtube on how to use this. Highly recommend viewing those videos, before you buy it, to see if it is right for you. I use this in SoCal placer gold deposits and it definately works for finding gold. You MUST watch the Youtube videos on how to "ground Balance" this in order for it to work properly. Works outstanding, once "ground balanced" which is easy to do. Its is very light and very easy to use. Review: Amazing metal detector. - This is my second "Nice" metal detector and by far the best one I have. Works very well and detects very small objects. I have not found any gold with it yet but I did test it with some very small gold samples. Works amazingly well. ## Features - KIT INCLUDES: Minelab Gold Monster 1000 Metal Detector | 10x6" DD Waterproof Search Coil | 5" DD Waterproof Search Coil | Headphones | Lithium-Ion Battery | 8 x AA Batteries | Lens Cleaning Cloth | Minelab 2 Year Control Box & Coil Warranty - 45 KHZ VLF & 24-BIT SIGNAL PROCESSOR: This primary combination greatly boosts sensitivity to gold beyond that of other single frequency VLF detectors over a wide range of nugget sizes, without introducing excess noise and false signals. - IMPROVED DISCRIMINATION: The GOLD MONSTER 1000 also has improved ferrous/non-ferrous discrimination and copes better with conductive (salty) soils than higher frequency detectors, making it the perfect choice to maximise your gold recovery. - VERY LOW FREQUENCY: VLF (Very Low Frequency) is a conventional single frequency sine wave continuous transmission technology. This is the traditional type of technology used in most basic metal detectors. Single frequency sine wave detectors create an electro-magnetic field, which is transmitted into the ground in a continuous wave. The receive signal processing has improved enormously. ​ ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | MINELAB | | Color | Black, Blue, White | | Extended Length | 21.5 inches | | International Protection Rating | IP54 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 21.5"L x 10"W x 5.5"H | | Item Weight | 7.2 pounds | | Material | Gold,Metal | | Material Type | Gold,Metal | | Operating Frequency | 45 KHz | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Product Dimensions | 21.5"L x 10"W x 5.5"H | ## Product Details - **Brand:** MINELAB - **Color:** Black, Blue, White - **Item Weight:** 7.2 pounds - **Material:** Gold,Metal - **Power Source:** Battery Powered ## Images ![Minelab Gold Monster 1000 Universal Metal Detector with 2 Search Coils, Waterproof - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61oqIrcqn0L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will it detect silver too ?** A: Yes, this detector will find gold, silver, copper, etc. **Q: How deep underground it detects?** A: Depends on how large and dense the object is **Q: what kind of batteries does it use? are they rechargeable lithium?** A: A rechargeable lithium battery is included. **Q: Dose it come with a charger** A: Yes, a charger is included. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent VLF gold detector.

It was an open box but never seen dirt! Great deal! Super sensitive! One of the best nugget shooters for sure, been testing on a tiny chunk of gold, need tweezers to pick it up and it hammers it! ## Frequently Bought Together - Minelab Gold Monster 1000 Universal Metal Detector with 2 Search Coils, Waterproof - Minelab 5" GM 05 Search Coil Cover Skidplate for Gold Monster 1000 Metal Detector - Minelab 10" Skidplate for Gold Monster 1000 Metal Detector Coil --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/223684196-minelab-gold-monster-1000-universal-metal-detector-with-2-search](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/223684196-minelab-gold-monster-1000-universal-metal-detector-with-2-search) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-15*
