Detect Deeper. Identify Better. Recover Faster.

MANTICORE® with Multi-IQ+™ is the fastest, most powerful, and precise metal detector Minelab has ever built. At its core is the next-generation Simultaneous Multi-Frequency engine, Multi-IQ+™, delivering up to 50% more power than the legendary EQUINOX® series. This leap in performance is paired with advanced 2D ID and immersive audio controls, giving you a clear picture of every signal that comes through. With greater depth, sharper accuracy, and faster recovery, MANTICORE sets a new benchmark in detecting. It’s an uncompromising experience built for detectorists who demand more from every hunt.

Highlights

Powerful 2D ID Map

MANTICORE’s 2D ID Map shows ferrous and conductive values so you can identify targets faster, apply accurate discrimination and assign tones to hunt more efficiently.

Audio Your Way

MANTICORE lets you adjust tones using 1, 2 or 5-tone, or 1, 2 or 5-region All Tones. Detect with VCO audio, ferrous response, and real threshold tone for accurate, confident signal interpretation.

Fast Target Response

MANTICORE offers recovery speeds from 0 to 8, letting you fine-tune response. Use faster speeds in trashy areas or slower speeds to find deep, isolated targets more easily.

Unrivalled Construction

With an IP68 rating, you can dive up to 5 m (16 ft) for underwater exploration. MANTICORE’s three-piece, highly collapsible carbon-fibre shaft makes it easy to pack up and go. The lightweight build weighs just 1.3 kg (2.9 lbs) and collapses to 63 cm (24.8 in) for all-day comfort.

High Power Multi-IQ+

Multi-IQ+® is the newest generation of Minelab’s Simultaneous Multi-Frequency engine from Minelab, building on the success of the original Multi-IQ. Multi-IQ+ transmits more power through the coil at a wider frequency range, to light up more targets in the ground. The completely revamped signal processing provides enhanced discrimination, greater Target ID resolution, improved target separation and gives you a greater ability to tune discrimination and audio to suit your detecting conditions.

Powerful 2D ID Map

MANTICORE’s 2D ID Map is a powerful visual tool that displays both the ferrous and conductive characteristics of a detected target. This dual-axis display helps you quickly determine whether a target is worth digging, enabling smarter decision-making in the field. With detailed classification, custom discrimination patterns and precise audio control, you can accept or reject targets with ease. The system allows you to assign tones, and adjust volume across five tone regions to receive clear and reliable audio responses tailored to your preference. This level of control leads to faster recoveries, fewer unwanted digs, and more time spent on valuable finds.

10 Custom Search Modes

MANTICORE offers 10 custom search modes, giving you the flexibility to adapt to a wide range of detecting environments. These are grouped into five All-Terrain modes, four Beach modes, and one Goldfield mode. Each mode is a dedicated search profile tailored to specific conditions, such as high-trash areas, low-conductor targets, or mineralized ground. You can personalize discrimination, audio, recovery speed and more, creating a setup that matches how and where you detect.

Fast Response

MANTICORE’s adjustable recovery speed, ranging from 0 to 8, lets you fine-tune how quickly the detector responds to consecutive targets. Increase the speed to separate closely spaced targets in trash-heavy ground, or slow it down to enhance detection depth on isolated finds.

Enhanced Discrimination

With custom Ferrous Limits, you gain advanced control over target discrimination. Accept valuable ferrous coins, reject unwanted iron or optimize unmasking in complex ground. Combined with improved Target ID stability and precise target separation, MANTICORE delivers accuracy where it counts.

Audio Your Way

MANTICORE puts you in control of your audio experience. Adjust target tones from (1, 2 or 5 tones), or (1, 2 or 5-region All Tones) to suit your preferences. Suppress unwanted EMI chatter and take advantage of Continuous Pitch (VCO) audio with ferrous response and a true threshold detection tone. These advanced audio settings help you interpret signals more precisely and detect with greater confidence.

Unrivalled Construction

With an IP68 rating, you can dive up to 5 m (16 ft) for underwater exploration. MANTICORE’s three-piece, highly collapsible carbon-fiber shaft makes it easy to pack and transport. The lightweight design weighs just 1.3 kg (2.9 lbs) and collapses to 63 cm (24.8 in) for all-day comfort. Its full-colour LCD display provides excellent visibility in any light, with 10 manual backlight levels and an auto-adjust option to suit changing conditions.
