ACE 150 ◆ ACE 250

CODE OF ETHICS

The following is a Code of Ethics that many treasure hunt

clubs endorse and hobbyists follow to preserve our exciting

hobby of metal detecting. We encourage you to do the same:

• I will keep informed on and obey all laws, regulations and

rules governing federal, state and local public lands.

• I will aid law enforcement officials whenever possible.

• I will cause no willful damage to property of any kind,

including fences, signs and buildings.

• I will always fill the holes I dig.

• I will not destroy property, buildings or the remains of ghost

towns and other deserted structures.

• I will not leave litter or other discarded junk items lying

around.

• I will carry all trash and dug targets with me when I leave

each search area.

• I will observe the Golden Rule, using good outdoor

manners and conducting myself at all times in a manner

which will add to the stature and public image of all people

engaged in the field of metal detection.

CAUTION

When searching for treasure with your Garrett detector,

observe these precautions:

• Never trespass or hunt on private property without

permission.

• Avoid areas where pipelines or electric lines may be

buried.

• National and state parks / monuments, etc are absolutely

off-limits.

• Deepseeking detectors can detect concealed pipes, wiring

and other potentially dangerous material. When those are

located, the proper authorities should be notified.

• Do not hunt in a military zone where bombs or other

explosives may be buried.

• Do not disturb any pipeline, particularly if it could be

carrying flammable gas or liquid.

• Use reasonable caution in digging toward any target,

particularly in areas you are uncertain of the ground

conditions.

• If you are unsure if you can use your metal detector in any

area, seek permission from the proper authorities.
