The Minelab NOX 800 is a high-performance metal detector that is known for its ability to discriminate between different types of metals. This makes it a popular choice for treasure hunters and prospectors who are looking for gold and other valuable metals. However, the NOX 800 can also be used to find iron, which is a common type of metal that can interfere with the detection of other metals.
There are a number of different settings that can be adjusted on the NOX 800 to improve its ability to remove iron. These settings include the discrimination level, the ground balance, and the frequency. The discrimination level determines how much iron the detector will ignore. The ground balance compensates for the natural mineralization of the ground, which can also interfere with the detection of metals. The frequency determines the depth at which the detector will search for metals.
