Deus Gold

Deus Gold Detector for Natural Gold and Small Nuggets

Deus Gold combines the XP DEUS II platform with the white elliptical HF2 high-frequency search coil for searching for natural gold nuggets and small metal targets.

The HF2 coil supports Fast Multi Frequency (FMF) and single-frequency operation, with adjustable settings to suit the target and ground conditions. Its lightweight elliptical design makes sweeping between rocks and in tight spaces easier.

When searching in mineralized ground, selecting a suitable program and adjusting ground balance and sensitivity can help maintain a stable response. Detection performance depends on the target’s size and depth, soil conditions, and detector settings.

For setup instructions and practical search tips, read our Deus Gold user guide.

Why Choose Deus Gold for Gold Prospecting?

• Sensitivity to small gold nuggets: The HF2 coil’s high-frequency options help detect small targets, depending on their size, depth, and ground conditions.
• Adjustable settings for mineralized ground: Search programs, ground balance, and sensitivity settings allow you to adapt the detector to the search area.
• Multiple frequency options: The HF2 coil supports FMF operation from 9 to 90 kHz and single-frequency operation from 9 to 120 kHz, with available frequencies depending on the selected mode and program.
• Lightweight elliptical search coil: The 24 × 13 cm HF2 coil weighs approximately 350 g and makes sweeping between rocks and in tight spaces easier.
• Wireless coil communication: The HF2 coil communicates wirelessly with the XP DEUS II remote control, allowing comfortable movement during land-based searching.

Main Components of Deus Gold

The Deus Gold configuration combines the XP DEUS II platform with the white HF2 search coil. Its main components are:

• XP DEUS II remote control: For selecting search programs, adjusting sensitivity, ground balance and frequency settings, and viewing target information.
• XP HF2 search coil: A white elliptical high-frequency coil measuring 24 × 13 cm, used to search for gold nuggets and small metal targets.
• Adjustable stem with an armrest: For setting a comfortable detector length during sweeping, with a collapsible design for transport and storage.

The HF2 coil communicates wirelessly with the remote control. Search settings can be adjusted through the DEUS II platform to suit the target and ground conditions.

FMF Technology and Frequency Options in Deus Gold

Deus Gold uses XP’s FMF (Fast Multi Frequency) technology through the XP DEUS II platform and HF2 search coil. FMF processes multiple frequencies simultaneously, helping the detector respond to different targets and ground conditions.

The HF2 coil also supports single-frequency operation, allowing you to select a frequency suited to the target and search area. Performance in mineralized soil depends on the selected program, ground balance, sensitivity, and local conditions.

HF2 Operating Frequency Range

• FMF multi-frequency mode: From 9 to 90 kHz, depending on the selected program and FREQ MAX setting.
• Single-frequency mode: Selectable frequencies within a range of 9 to 120 kHz.

Choosing a Frequency for Gold Prospecting

Higher frequencies can improve sensitivity to small gold nuggets and fine metal targets. However, the highest frequency does not automatically provide the greatest detection depth. Target size, soil mineralization, electrical interference, and coil settings all affect the response.

Start with a suitable search program, adjust ground balance, and set sensitivity to maintain stable operation. Test the settings with a known target before searching, and adjust them as ground conditions change.

White XP HF2 Search Coil: Design and Specifications

The white XP HF2 elliptical search coil is a key component of the Deus Gold configuration. Its high-frequency options support searching for small gold nuggets, while its narrow profile makes sweeping between rocks and in tight spaces easier.

• Elliptical dimensions: 24 × 13 cm, providing a compact shape for controlled sweeping around obstacles.
• Coil weight: Approximately 350 g. This refers to the coil itself, rather than the complete detector.
• Frequency options: FMF operation from 9 to 90 kHz and single-frequency operation from 9 to 120 kHz, depending on the selected mode and settings.
• Rechargeable battery: A replaceable 2300 mAh battery, with approximately 10 hours of operation depending on frequency and power settings.
• Wireless communication: The coil communicates wirelessly with the XP DEUS II remote control during land-based searching.
• Waterproof coil: Rated for submersion to 20 metres. Underwater use requires the appropriate setup and accessories described in the manufacturer’s instructions.

For effective searching, keep the coil close and parallel to the ground, use overlapping sweeps, and adjust the detector settings to maintain a stable response. Sensitivity to small targets depends on their size, depth, and the surrounding soil.

Deus Gold Features for Field Searching

• Adjustable search settings: Select a search program and adjust sensitivity, ground balance, and reactivity to suit the ground and target conditions.
• Controlled sweeping around obstacles: The elliptical HF2 coil makes it easier to search between rocks and across narrow spaces.
• Audio response and target information: Use repeatable signals and the information displayed on the remote control to assess targets before digging.
• Wireless coil connection: The HF2 coil communicates wirelessly with the XP DEUS II remote control during land-based searching.
• Adjustable, collapsible stem: Set the detector length for comfortable sweeping and collapse the stem for transport and storage.
• FMF and single-frequency options: Choose the operating mode and frequency settings according to the target, soil conditions, and electrical interference.

When you receive a repeatable signal, check it from more than one direction and pinpoint the target before digging. Target identification provides useful guidance, but recovering and inspecting the object is necessary to confirm whether it is gold.

Who Is Deus Gold Suitable For?

Deus Gold is suitable for prospectors searching for natural gold nuggets with a search coil, particularly those who want to adjust programs and frequencies to suit their targets and ground conditions.

• Gold nugget prospectors: The XP DEUS II and HF2 configuration provides options for small-target searching. Detection performance depends on target size, depth, and soil conditions.
• Users searching around rocks: The elliptical HF2 coil makes sweeping around obstacles and through tight spaces easier.
• Users who want adjustable settings: Sensitivity, ground balance, and audio response can be adjusted to suit the search site.
• Beginners willing to learn: Start with an appropriate search program, then develop sweeping and signal interpretation skills through training and practice.

If you already own an XP DEUS II, contact us for guidance on adding an HF2 coil to your existing setup and checking software update and pairing requirements.

Deus Gold in Field Use

The following photographs show the XP DEUS II with the white HF2 coil during field use, including sweeping positions, the remote control and the search coil.

Overlapping sweeps and keeping the coil close and parallel to the ground help cover the site systematically. When a signal is detected, recheck it from more than one direction before recovering the target.

Search results vary with target size, depth, soil conditions and detector settings. For operating instructions, read our Deus Gold user guide and HF2 coil settings.
