Nokta Magnetar 9000 Pulse Induction Gold Detector - No Tax

Nokta Magnetar 9000 Pulse Induction Gold Detector

Power for deep gold. Precision for small gold.

The Nokta Magnetar 9000 is a professional Advanced Pulse Induction metal detector engineered to locate both deep gold and micro nuggets in harsh, highly mineralized ground.

Its DRC dual-receiver coil system is designed to provide strong depth, sharp target response, and stable operation in difficult goldfield conditions. Instead of requiring separate detectors for different sizes of gold, the Magnetar 9000 combines deep-gold performance, small-gold sensitivity, and extreme-ground capability in one field-ready platform.

This is a specialized gold-prospecting detector—not a basic coin and jewelry machine. It is best suited for serious prospectors who need dependable performance in mineralized soil, hot rocks, rough terrain, and other demanding environments.

Advanced Pulse Induction for Mineralized Ground

The Magnetar 9000 uses Nokta’s Advanced Pulse Induction platform for gold prospecting in mineralized and otherwise difficult soil.

Mineralization and hot rocks can cause excessive ground noise, false signals, and reduced performance with many standard VLF detectors. The Magnetar 9000 is designed to maintain a stable response while still detecting small gold and deeper targets in these demanding conditions.

Its combination of depth, ground handling, and sensitivity makes it suitable for:

• Natural gold nugget prospecting
• Deep gold targets
• Micro nuggets and small gold
• Highly mineralized goldfields
• Hot-rock environments
• Wet and dusty field conditions
• Rough or remote prospecting locations

DRC Dual-Receiver Coil Technology

The Magnetar 9000 uses Nokta’s DRC dual-receiver coil system. The package includes two waterproof DRC coils, giving prospectors different options for depth, ground coverage, and maneuverability.

Both search coils and their protective coil covers are included with the detector.

Deep Gold, Small Gold and Extreme Ground

The Magnetar 9000 was developed as one platform for three of the most important gold-prospecting challenges:

Deep Gold

The Advanced Pulse Induction platform and larger MG37 DRC coil are designed to deliver powerful responses from deeper gold targets while covering more ground in open areas.

Small Gold

The detector is also designed to retain sensitivity to fine gold and micro nuggets. The smaller MG29 DRC coil offers improved control in tighter areas and uneven terrain.

Extreme Ground

Advanced ground handling and automatic noise cancellation help the Magnetar 9000 operate more smoothly in difficult mineralized soil where excessive ground response can make gold prospecting challenging.

Easy Mode and Expert Mode

The Magnetar 9000 provides two menu levels, allowing users to choose between a streamlined setup and more advanced control.

Easy Mode

• Pre-tuned settings
• Faster initial setup
• Simplified menu choices
• Good starting point for users learning the detector

Expert Mode

• Expanded control over detector parameters
• More adjustment for changing ground conditions
• Designed for experienced prospectors
• Greater control when maximum performance is required

Fully Waterproof and Field Ready

The Magnetar 9000 carries an IP68 rating and is fully submersible to 10 feet or 3 meters. It is also protected against dust ingress, making it suitable for demanding prospecting environments.

Additional field-ready features include:

• Telescopic carbon-fiber shaft
• Full-color LCD screen
• Backlit display and control keys
• Integrated flashlight
• Key sounds and vibration
• Automatic noise cancellation
• Multiple language options
• USB-updateable software

Flexible Audio Options

The Magnetar 9000 gives prospectors several ways to hear target responses:

• Built-in loudspeaker
• Bluetooth wireless audio
• 6.3 mm or 1/4-inch headphone connection
• Included Nokta Bluetooth headphones

This allows you to choose wired, wireless, or external-speaker audio depending on the environment and your personal preference.

Two Batteries for Longer Prospecting Sessions

Each included rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to approximately 10 hours of operating time. Because two batteries are supplied, the complete package provides up to approximately 20 hours of combined operating time.

Actual battery life can vary depending on settings, environmental conditions, audio use, and battery condition.

Magnetar 9000 Software Updates

The Magnetar 9000 can receive software and performance updates through its USB connection.

Nokta software update v3.04.04 improves ground balancing and stability for more precise ground compensation, smoother operation, and better performance across challenging and highly mineralized soil.
