A few things about this machine. I visited Vourvon Electronica in Manila a few months ago and saw the machine in person but I didn't test it on anything. It looked to be very well-made. One of the employees said the medium sized coil which is about the size of the medium sized coil on the Nokta Goldenking or Makro Jeohunter 3D will penetrate down to 14 meters. If true, that's crazy depth for a coil that size that can be wielded by a single person. You probably won't be able to use it at 100% sensitivity in the Philippines because of all the mineralization. But I think with it being newer technology you can get away with 60-80% sensitivity, which still gives you extreme depth. One of my questions was can it actually produce an accurate image of a deeply buried object like it does in the video demonstrations of surface objects. So far I have yet to receive an answer from the Nokta or anyone else about this matter. If it can, obviously that's impressive and makes the machine well worth the price. I noticed recently they slashed the retail price of the machine by a whopping 40%... Its hard to say if that's a result of poor revenues or dissatisfied customers. I'd buy it tho... Its too tempting to have such a deeply penetrating coil of that size.

From those who experienced using one of those machines. I hope that discussions that i screen grab can help you.
Failures made them perfect yet perfect are generous to make themselves masters of their knowledge!

So true... I purchased the Jeohunter 3D Dual System a couple of years ago and put it to heavy use the first few days. Ended up returning it to Amazon for refund. It saw so many hot rocks and mineralization pockets and the LED indicator would always say precious metal so of course you're inclined to dig it all up. Then you do the "scan analysis" over the object and the screen tells you "GOLD!". Basically everything the software provided beyond the ground balance information was meaningless nonsense.

I had heard the company made some breakthroughs in this area with their Makro Deephunter which was basically the new version of the Jeohunter. Now the Invenio Pro is supposed to be even better. The team at Vourvon Electronica has a lot of experience using these machines because they get hired to perform surveys all over the Philippines. So when one of them tells me the company made meaningful improvements in this area I'm inclined to believe. Maybe the visualization software can help you ignore the hot rocks and mineralization? Hopefully someone who has used this new machine can chime in..
