Soil Mineralization – Oh! Very frustrating! We will all experience it. When you are in an area that
is known to have pockets of high ground mineralization, be prepared to conduct more scans than
normal.
◦
Clay is probably the number one foe. Depending on the iron content of the clay will
determine how strong the attenuation will be. A quick analysis of the iron content is how
dark it is, it can vary from a light gray up to a dark orange. The darker the clay, the more
iron it has.
◦
Sand is usually very clear and easy to hunt in. There are two factors of sand that need to be
noted. Sand where the ground water is very shallow, meaning that the ground water is
usually just a couple of meters from the surface or desert sand where it is very arid. In
desert sand, the targets can be situated 3x deeper than indicated.
◦
Farmland is another area to take note of. In modern farms, so many nutrients and fertilizers
are introduced creating an unnatural area of mineralization.
◦
Rocky mountainous areas. Areas with many mountains are also riddled with patches of
mineralization. Mountainous areas are created from faults in the earth and this is probably
the biggest area for natural treasures as well as mineralization.
•
All scans have a red … and a blue. When you view the scans in the Visualizer 3D software every
scan has a red spot. The scans represent the strongest signals (red) as well as the weakest
signals (blue).
◦
A real target will usually have a much stronger signal than that of a mineralized field. It will
also not move. If you think that a red spot in the software is a real target, conduct a set of
control scans and see if the target remains in the same place, or moves. If it moves, then it is
not real.
