Comment on Nimrod by Exampleparent

Nimrod's pointers to garbage collected memory are separate from the pointers you can allocate yourself.

Does this mean that they use different heaps?

No, they are on the same heap since the GC isn't a moving collector.

They probably use the same heap underneath.
