Interesting that known metal detector producer White's started his business as Geiger Counter producer,
so practically in Long Range Locater (LRL) field (it even detect "subnormal" phenomenon):

Very interesting.
Also a man "Steve White" is owner of a Bickel device but i don't know if he has any relation with whites electronics. Maybe Carl or someone else knows.

Here's who first discovered the "Phenomenon" ...!
My first metal detector was White`s Coin Master 6000 DI S3.
Obvious, I was a "little late" this White`s LRL model.

so, that's why their first metal detector models, had a "Geiger look"....

The question is can a geiger counter help us find buried gold long time ago ?

If those gold radiate in Gamma spectrum, why not?

"The gold standard for gamma-ray spectroscopy is the high purity germanium (HPGe) detector," says Fisk Professor of Physics Arnold Burger. "However, it requires cryogenic cooling so it is very bulky. It also needs vacuum-tube technology so it consumes too much energy to run on batteries. SrI2 isn't quite as good HPGe, but it is more than adequate to do the job and it is compact enough and its power requirements low enough so that it can be used in spacecraft and even placed on robotic landers.

=====================
By using a photographic method in connection with semi-circular focusing magnetic spectrometers, the beta-spectra due to internal conversion have been evaluated for gold 198, iridium 194, and tantalum 182. For gold a simple spectrum of 3 lines with differences the same as between the K−L−M levels of mercury indicate a single gamma-ray of energy 0.408 Mev following beta-emission.
In iridium, a complicated spectrum of more than 26 lines is observed which may be identified from the K−L−M differences in platinum as due to 12 gamma-rays. These gamma-energies appear to fit well with a level scheme of six terms.
Tantalum yields a spectrum of about 34 lines from which about 16 gamma-rays may be derived by applying the K−L−M differences for tungsten. These gamma-energies fit satisfactorily on a level scheme of 9 terms.
