New for 2025! Minelab Gold Monster 2000 with Hybrid Simultaneous Multi-Frequency!

GOLD MONSTER 2000 combines high sensitivity with intelligent signal processing to locate ultra-fine gold in difficult ground. Multi-Au™ technology uses hybrid SMF-PI detection to deliver the performance of VLF sensitivity alongside a Pulse Induction soil- handling engine. Echo Wave'™ Audio enhances clarity, helping separate faint targets from ferrous junk and hot rocks without sacrificing depth. Ground balancing adapts in real time through Easy-Trak for automatic adjustment, and Quick-Trak for fast manual retuning. The large Target ID display with Gold Chance Indicator improves visual feedback, while auto and manual sensitivity modes let you fine-tune response in mineralized soils. Lightweight carbon-fiber and fiberglass shafts collapse for easy transport and all-day comfort in remote locations.”

The Minelab Gold Monster 2000 metal detector is a new model announced at a Minelab dealer meeting in May 2025. The main news of note is it employs a hybrid Multifrequency and PI ground processing technology Minelab is calling Multi-Au. Additionally the Gold Monster 2000 sports a new audio reporting scheme that Minelab is calling Echo Wave. The machine is projected to be available for purchase by October 2025 for US$1999. This is the first simultaneous multi-frequency (SMF) metal detector made specifically for gold nugget prospecting!

MULTI-AU™ TECHNOLOGY WITH HYBRID SMF-PI Minelab’s new Multi-Au simultaneous multi-frequency engine combines the ultra-fine sensitivity of VLF with the superior ground-handling capability of a Pulse Induction soil-handling engine. This advanced signal processing improves responsiveness to small or difficult targets by maintaining signal clarity and reducing ground noise in mineralized soils. The result is powerful, stable detection across challenging goldfields without sacrificing precision or depth.
ECHO WAVE™ AUDIO Highly sensitive detection audio is layered with target discrimination tones to clearly differentiate valuable targets from surrounding clutter, including ferrous junk, hot rocks and background noise, while preserving sensitivity, clarity and depth. Receive accurate target identification even in mineralized soil and challenging goldfields.
