Metal Detecting
Metal detectors use electromagnetic induction to detect metal. Here, this refers to the use of metal detectors in geophysical prospecting, archaeology and treasure hunting.
Treasure Hunting
The search for and attempted recovery on land of artefacts of great financial value. This category includes the legendary and sometimes mythical treasure tales of Rennes-Le-Chateau, Oak Island and similar. Such projects may or may not include scientific studies, such as archaeology. Many are of a fabulous nature and others fraudulent.
