A professional pulse induction metal detector can also be used effectively in heavily mineralized soils, while other metal detectors are severely degraded in their performance. Mineralized soils often contain mineral deposits such as iron oxide or salts that can interfere with the detector's electromagnetic signal. In such cases it is important to choose a detector with a good ground compensation function. Ground compensation allows the detector to account for ground mineralization and minimize interference. Adjusting the sensitivity of the detector and going slow can also help to get accurate results. It is recommended to follow the manufacturer's instructions and, if necessary, make special settings for mineralized soils.
