5. curate discrimination Ground balancing is a process through which the metal detector is able to cancel out the negative effects caused by ground mineralization Golden Sense ground balance setting consists of 3 different levels 1 MID LEVEL Offers the most ideal and stable detection capability on different types of grounds without sacrificing depth 2 LEFT AREA Recommended for more precise detections and for experienced users The device may generate false signals in changing ground conditions even over holes dug for testing Therefore if you set the ground balance in this area you have to take ME this factor into consideration 3 RIGHT AREA Is used to eliminate high mineralized rocks and soils If you are on a highly mineralized ground and the device is still getting ground noise with the ground balance set at mid level turn the ground balance knob to the right in very small increments to eliminate the noise The most important thing to pay attention here is that as the ground balance goes into the right area the device will start losing depth for some non ferrous metals except for gold When the ground balance setting reaches the maximum point the device will detect iron and gold but it will not detect some non ferrous metals IMPORTANT If you are searching on high mineralized ground extremely salty soil wet beach sand wet plowed land or highly magnetic ground conditions you may not be able to ground balance the devic
