I am guessing it is magnetic detector. He uses it to find manhole covers that
have been paved over and valve bodies.

Was it a metal detector or a magnetic locator? The former can only detect
down ~12" max. the latter can detect pretty deep depending on the size of
the object. I'd guess a drill head could be found 6-10' down.

They say GPR will not work in our soil.

Our water guys can barely find the valves on top of the ground and to find
anything under the ground they use a poking stick until it hits something
then draw a blue line.
This is why we use a GPR to find the water lines but it will pick up almost
all the utilities.
We use one of these.

Our water guys use something like this:

But I have only ever seen them use it to find valve lids or risers that
have been covered by a little bit of dirt or paved over.
Tell the drill guys next time they break off priority #1 is mark where the
head is!
Did he use metal rldtector or copper wire?

How deep was the end? My experience with metal detectors has been
that they can't do more than a foot of soil.

pretty popular, but they are pricey for what I saw. For sure they have
entry level models, but I'm betting they don't do all of the fancy
discrimination and have removable coils and such.
Though it shouldn't have surprised
Had a drill rod break today. The guys did not know where the end was because
the sonde went to sleep on them. Had the local water guy go over with his
metal detector and help them find it.
I am going to ask him what kind he has. Anyone here use them? Any opinions?--
