Hi Tim and List,
Warning - I am repeating second-hand information, not personal experience.
I've done a lot reading on metal detectors and meteorites lately, and
I found a review (shootout) of several metal detectors being used to
find meteorites - irons and stones. It seems that the older metal
detectors that have trouble with mineralized ground are actually good
with stones.
