Since gold is a metal (precious) you can of course detect it with a metal detector. But only if it isn't tuned to ignore gold. since every metal has a different phase response metal detectors with discriminators can be tuned to ignore certain metals.

If you want to stop your cell phone from going off in a metal detector there are several things you can do: Turn off the phone before entering a metal detector Put the phone on silent or vibrate mode Put the phone in airplane mode Keep the phone out of reach of the metal detectorThese methods should help to prevent your cell phone from going off in a metal detector. If you are still having trouble you may want to consider using a different phone or device that does not emit signals.
