Field notes
The page explains detector VDI readings as a way to assess likely materials before digging, and presents minimizing damage to the ground as part of the method. Olivier says he has practiced for 10 years, uses an XP Deus II, and also advises on cleaning and preserving recovered metal objects. The planned case notebook is not yet populated with actual recovery stories; the site says future accounts will use approximate locations and appear with owners' agreement.
