Features

THE NEW MINELAB GPZ 8000:

Ultimate Depth. Ultimate Control:

• The GPZ 8000™ is Minelab’s newest flagship gold detector, engineered for advanced performance in challenging ground.
• Z-Set concentric toroidal coils offer three coil options to match detection style, target size and ground conditions.
• Ground optimized detection delivers maximum depth on both small and large gold, with Echo Sonic Pro™ audio providing rich layered sound and enhanced stereo separation for clear target definition.
• A new level of depth, control, and adaptability for serious prospectors.

Maximum Depth Penetration:

• Optimal gold depth through ground-optimized detection, enabling maximum depth on both small and large gold by matching the right mode to the right ground.

PRO-SWING 125 Harness:

• Distribute detector weight during long hunts while keeping movement unrestricted.
• Weight is transferred through the hips to reduce fatigue, supported by the GA10 guide arm to improve swing control and reduce strain.

Wireless Audio Freedom:

• Experience real-time wireless audio with the WM 14 wireless audio module, maintaining low latency sound and clear signal detail without cables.
• Move freely with extended range and maintain consistent target audio throughout the field.

Lighter Swing:

• Weighs only 2.78 kg (6.1 lbs) for comfortable control and a lighter swing during long sessions.​

 Ground Type Selection:

• Optimized performance engineered for every :ground condition, with precise analysis and adaptation to changing terrain.
• Four ground types use Echo Sonic Pro™ audio to identify ground conditions through nuanced stereo feedback, while performance is tailored to locate shallow crumbs to deep nuggets in mineralized and conductive soils.

Z-Set Concentric Toroidal Coils:

• The Z-Set Concentric toroidal coil range includes the Z18 18", Z17 17", and Z13 13" coils, each engineered for specific ground conditions and reduced ground noise in mineralized soils.
• Z18 focuses on maximum depth and stability in highly mineralized ground, allowing deeper penetration to locate medium to large gold while efficiently covering wide open areas with reduced ground noise.
• Z17 is designed for high EMI and conductive soils, with stable operation and strong target response on small to medium gold.
• Z13 suits vegetation-heavy terrain and supports accurate detection of small to medium gold, with balanced handling and reduced fatigue over long sessions.

Single Coil Pack:

• The Single Coil Pack includes the Z18 Concentric Toroidal coil to expand ground coverage and reaches deeper soil layers.

• Ground noise is reduced while maintaining strong response on medium to large gold at maximum depth.

• Terrain and targets vary, but depth and stability do not.

Three Coil Pack: The Three Coil Pack includes the complete Z-Set Concentric Toroidal coil range.

• Z18 provides expanded ground coverage and deeper soil penetration with reduced ground noise and strong response on medium to large gold at maximum depth.
• Z17 delivers stable performance in high EMI and conductive soils with reliable detection of small to medium gold.
• Z13 moves easily through vegetation-heavy terrain, maintaining balance during extended sessions while remaining highly responsive to small and medium gold.
• Together, the Z-Set Concentric Toroidal coil range transforms one detector into a multi-configuration gold recovery platform.
• 

Echo Sonic Pro™ Audio:

• Experience rich layered audio across every tone with enhanced stereo separation that sends distinct signal components to each ear.
• Designed for use with true stereo high-fidelity headphones with a flat frequency response.
• This level of audio clarity reveals subtle target differences and allows accurate identification of promising signals without compromising depth.

Full-Color LCD Display:

• Combines vivid visuals with a clean and modern menu system, making it easy to access settings, view the display, and stay oriented in the field.
• The interface stays clear and readable when conditions demand it.

 

 Audiophile Wired Headphones:

• High fidelity headphones produce an immersive and high resolution audio experience.
• Premium materials ensure lasting comfort during long detecting sessions.

Hybrid Shaft System:

• The Hybrid Shaft System combines carbon fiber and fiberglass to create a strong and lightweight setup that reduces vibration and reverberation during knocks and bumps.
• A tear-drop shaft profile maintains consistent alignment and prevents unwanted rotation, and the fiberglass lower shaft minimizes detection noise for clearer audio on subtle signals.
