The Minelab GOLD MONSTER 1000 is an easy automatic small gold hunter designed to help you find more gold with less effort. It combines high-speed 24-bit signal processing with a powerful 45 kHz VLF frequency for excellent sensitivity to small gold. Automatic ground balance, automatic sensitivity, and automatic noise cancel help reduce setup time and guesswork.
The GOLD MONSTER 1000 keeps operation simple with automatic settings that help reduce setup time and make the detector easier to use in changing ground.
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.
The high-powered 45 kHz VLF frequency works with a 24-bit signal processor to deliver strong sensitivity to gold, from small flakes to larger nuggets.
This combination helps improve response and clarity across varied ground conditions without the usual noise or false signals.
The Gold Chance Indicator gives you a visual gauge of target probability. Readings shift right for valuable metals such as gold and left for ferrous trash or hot rocks, helping you make faster digging decisions.
The included GM05 5" Double-D coil is waterproof to 1 m / 3.3 ft and designed for versatility and precision.
Its compact size makes it ideal for tight spaces, bedrock cracks, and areas where precise coil control matters.
Rain-resistant control box protects internal components.

Manual volume control with 1 - 8 adjustment levels.

Built-in speaker and 3.5 mm / 1/8" headphone jack.

Use Li-ion packs or AA batteries with the adapter.

This version is a strong choice for prospectors who want maximum sensitivity to small gold with a compact coil that can work around rocks, brush, bedrock cracks, and tighter terrain.
Automatic operation helps reduce setup time so you can spend more time detecting and less time adjusting settings.
