Hey, I'm Nic Odgers...
I’m a prospector just like you. In 2005, I bought my first metal detector and was hooked, digging everything from tin to bullets. Now, nearly two decades later, I’m finding 5–8 grams of gold a day—often in areas others overlook entirely.
My adventures have lead my all over Australia, and I have even prospected in New Zealand and Thailand too! I'm a everyday family man with a small business now but many moons ago i prospected full time for wages. I had to learn hard and fast because if I didn't find gold i could not pay my bills.
SO?, what’s my secret? Over the years, I’ve developed unique techniques and strategies that go beyond the basics—methods most prospectors have never heard of. These techniques have helped me uncover gold consistently, even in grounds many believe to be “worked out.”
To share what I’ve learned, I created an in-depth course designed specifically for Minelab users. It’s packed with step-by-step guidance, proven tips, and insider knowledge you won’t find anywhere else.
The whole point of this tutorial is to completely stem the learning curve, because trust me on this, the learning curve for prospecting is HUGE!!
If you’re ready to leave the guesswork behind and start finding gold like a pro, this course is for you. Let me show you how to pinpoint exactly where you need to swing to increase your chances of finding that elusive patch!
