The Fisher Gold Bug 2 is engineered specifically for serious gold hunters who demand extreme sensitivity in mineral-rich environments. Designed for prospectors, this detector operates at an ultra-high frequency of 71 kHz, allowing it to locate even the tiniest gold nuggets in highly mineralized soils—making it a top choice for professionals and dedicated hobbyists.
