Minelab GOLD MONSTER 2000 Metal Detector with Multi-Au™ Technology

The Minelab Gold Monster 2000 is built for prospectors who want to find gold other detectors miss. Whether you're a first-time nugget hunter or upgrading from the Gold Monster 1000, its Hybrid SMF-PI technology and fully automatic operation deliver serious performance without a steep learning curve.

Why the Gold Monster 2000 Finds More Gold

Most gold detectors force you to choose between VLF sensitivity and pulse induction ground handling. The Gold Monster 2000 gives you both. Multi-Au™ Hybrid SMF-PI technology combines ultra-fine VLF target response with PI-grade stability in mineralized soil — so you stay locked on sub-gram nuggets even where other machines lose signal. Echo Wave™ Audio layers target feedback into distinct tones, letting you separate real gold from hot rocks and iron trash by ear, without sacrificing depth. Our team field-tested it in highly mineralized soils across Australia and the USA — it consistently recovered sub-gram nuggets that competing detectors missed entirely.
