It's ALL mineralized. The only question is how much, and with what.

In my opinion, how fast you can sweep and how high you can run the sensitivity without nulls or falsing determines how "easy" the dirt is to work.

You have another animal or two to deal with also......

You can have a lot of "mineral", but when the soil density, mineral content, and moisture are consistent then the dirt can be "easy".

Inconsistency makes it hard to work.

If it's consistent but too extreme, then it becomes "difficult".

You have to work the dirt the way it is. BBS works best with stable operation. You can control this with sensitivity and sweep speed. Don't worry about the dirt, because you can't do anything about it anyway.

For those that don't know a whites XLT has the ability to measure same, but am sure your Minelab will handle it well whatever it is...
