Happy Tycoon

"Is this, this is a super silver and gold mine?" The scene before him made Yang Jing almost involuntarily grow up his mouth. Fortunately, he reacted quickly in the end and did not reveal the appearance of the pig brother who had discovered huge wealth.

　　 Although the value of silver is far less valuable than gold, it also belongs to the category of precious metals, and the value of one gram exceeds three national currencies. Calculated at this price, a ton of silver is more than three million national currencies, which is more than half a million U.S. dollars.

　　Although the thickness of the ore body in front of me is unknown, such a large area and rich radiance are enough to prove that this ore body is absolutely rich in silver.

　　 The most important thing is that the silver-white light is also mixed with obvious gold, which proves that there is also a lot of gold in this ore body at the same time.

　　Simple silver is very difficult to be mineralized alone, because silver is a copper-type ion, is sulfur-loving, and has a strong polarization ability. In nature, it often exists in the form of natural silver, sulfide, and sulfur salt. Because of its large ion radius, it can form selenide and telluride with huge anions Se and Te. But it usually likes to be hidden in galena, or as a mechanical mixture, or as an isomorphic latent crystal. Secondly, it occurs in natural gold, tetrahedrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and other minerals. Therefore, silver can often be recovered in the mining and smelting process of lead-zinc mines, copper mines, and gold mines.

　　 Therefore, most of the silver mines currently found in the world are associated mines. For example, silver-gold mines, such as copper, gold, silver, and molybdenum mines, of course, more silver is smelted incidentally in galena.

Silver-gold associated is a very common phenomenon in nature. The huge ore body in front of you is obviously a silver-gold associated mine. Of course, it must also contain other mineral resources, but it should not be as rich as silver and gold, so this Only silver-white and gold can be seen in the radiance from the ore body.

　　 Actually, there are not many silver reserves in nature, which are not much more than gold. The reserves of gold on the earth are actually very rich, but most of the gold is hidden in the core of the earth, so there is so little gold in the earth's crust.

　　 The same is true for silver. There are not many silver mines in the world, only more than 500,000 tons are left. Therefore, despite the low price of silver nowadays, as more and more silver is mined, the amount of silver that can be mined on the earth becomes less and less, and the price of this metal will skyrocket sooner or later.

　　 Even now, the price of silver is quite expensive. A ton is worth more than half a million dollars, but how much is the price of copper? Six thousand dollars a ton...

　　 Therefore, as long as the silver ore grade of this ore body is high enough, mining this ore body is definitely profitable.

　　 Although it is impossible to know the thickness and ore grade of this ore body, Yang Jing believes that this accidentally discovered ore body definitely has the value of large-scale mining.

　　Unexpectedly, if you just climb a mountain, you will find a silver and gold mine of great value!

　　 This is really unintentional! I had known that there was such a huge silver-gold ore body under this piece of sea water. I didn't need to fly in a helicopter for the first two days.

　　 Looking at the huge glowing ore body below, Yang Jing felt helpless. But if you think about it, you’ll be relieved. Whether it’s New Britain Island or New Ireland Island, or the St. George’s Strait between the two, it’s one of the most geologically active areas in the world, let alone. Next to the volcano I am standing on, there is an active volcano that has just erupted for less than 30 years.

　　 It is a well-known thing that large-scale high-grade mineral veins can be formed by violent geological movement. Just like the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, known as the third pole in the world, contains astonishing mineral resources!

　　 The seabed near Japan also contains extremely rich mineral resources. The Rocky Mountains of North America, the Andes of South America, and Central America, which are also in the Pacific Rim Volcanic Seismic Belt, have extremely rich mineral resources.

The mineral resources contained in the earth’s crust are far behind the mantle. Therefore, only areas with violent geological activities can transport the mineral resources in the mantle to the crust through violent geological activities, and eventually form a world-class super Veins.

This huge ore body, which is suspected to be a silver-gold mine, is obviously formed in this way. Just look at the volcanoes around here. You know how much mineral resources these volcanoes have brought to this area within tens of millions of years. Woolen cloth.

　　 But anyway, this huge silver-gold ore body is definitely the product of these volcanoes, the Indo-Australian plate and the Pacific plate.

　　 "What do you want? Did you miss my sister-in-law?" The abrupt sentence made Yang Jing startled, but he turned his head to see that it was Guo Xiaoxiang.

　　 Yang Jing opened his mouth to say something, but when he saw Captain Howard on the side, he immediately stopped thinking about it.

This William Howard’s real boss, Mr. Fortress, is a well-known Australian mining tycoon. If the news of a huge silver-gold ore body here falls into this guy’s ears, it will not be tomorrow, and this piece of survey rights will even The mining rights will be taken by the mining tycoon.

　　Although the mining tycoon is a good man, when facing billions or even tens of billions of dollars in mineral resources, everything will become imaginary in a blink of an eye, and only the most practical benefits are the most real.

　　 So Yang Jing simply shook his head and said, "Let's go, it's getting dark, we have to ride back to the city." As he said, Yang Jing blinked at Guo Xiaoxiang.

The two have lived together for two years. With Yang Jing's blink, Guo Xiaoxiang naturally understood what he meant, so he nodded in cooperation and said, "Yes, the sea breeze is quite strong today, and it makes the scalp a little bit scalp. Tight. Mr. Captain, should we go back? I'm hungry."

　　 Captain Howard smiled and nodded, "Well, it's not too early now, we should go back too."

　　 Guo Xiaoxiang put on a pose and said to Yang Jing: "Lao Yang, give me a shadow before leaving."

　　 Yang Jing smiled and took out his mobile phone, waved his hand to Guo Xiaoxiang and said, "You stand a little bit here, the scenery here is better, and it just so happens that you can take in all the Duke of York Islands behind you."

　　 Guo Xiaoxiang obediently moved a few steps aside, and accompanied by a sound of "eggplant", Yang Jing took pictures of Guo Xiaoxiang and the sea area.

　　Walking halfway, Guo Dabao called and asked them to come back quickly. The dishes were almost on the table.

　　 went back to the city and found the restaurant that Guo Dabao had booked. The group had a lively meal. However, Yang Jing didn't eat much and didn't drink, but he was a little tired and wanted to rest early.

Although 　　 said that, when they were full, Yang Jing and Guo Xiaoxiang sneaked into Guo Dabao's room. After a while, Liu Zhaoming also quietly walked into Guo Dabao's room.

　　 "Undersea mining? How deep is it?" Liu Zhaoming asked with frowning after listening to Yang Jing's words.

"I don't know how deep it is, but I think it should not be very deep. After all, there is a strait, and the color of the sea is not as deep as the color of the deep sea. I estimate that the depth of the sea should not exceed 50 meters. ."

As Yang Jing was talking here, Guo Xiaoxiang took out a pile of materials from his father’s suite. He spread the materials on the table, and after a few clicks, he picked out a map and left it at hand. The table is spread out.

"This is the geological data near the St. George Strait. Well, at the Rabaul side, the depth of the St. George Strait is not great. The deepest point here is only 66 meters, and the average sea depth is 31 meters. To be precise, the sea area you mentioned, Brother Yang, is a small raised ridge."

　　 Hearing this, Liu Zhaoming's frowned brows relaxed, "Well, with a water depth of less than 50 meters, there are no technical problems for large-scale mining."

"At present, the world has a fairly mature technology for mineral development in shallow water areas. Not to mention, our domestic Sanshandao gold mine is mined in seawater. Although we have not conducted Rongbao Mining before. Experience in seabed mining, but there are many domestic personnel with experience and technology in this area~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Therefore, there are no technical obstacles in shallow water mining. Of course, the preliminary survey cost far exceeds that of land veins. If we want to survey this sea area, the initial investment is still quite large."

　　 "...It's just..." Liu Zhaoming hesitated, "Yang Dong, can you be sure that there is a precious metal ore body sufficient for large-scale mining?"

Yang Jing nodded and said seriously: "Yes, that sea area gives me a very strong feeling, even stronger than the feeling that day when I discovered the mineral veins in that unknown mountain peak. Teacher Liu, I believe me. Intuition."

After a pause, Yang Jing glanced at the three people next to him, and continued to say firmly: "And if I estimate it is good, this ore body hidden under the sea level should be a very valuable silver and gold. There may be precious metals such as platinum and rhodium in the mine. Of course, this is just my instinct, but I believe that this ore body is definitely worthwhile for development. Therefore, Uncle Guo, won the survey and mining rights for this area It is absolutely necessary."

Guo Dabao looked at Yang Jing, then at his son and Liu Zhaoming next to him, gritted his teeth and said, "Well, since Xiao Jing is so sure, then I will trust you unconditionally! The right to survey this sea area I will arrange for someone to handle the mining rights immediately!"

Yang Jing smiled faintly and said: "Uncle Guo, don't worry, these two ore bodies will definitely not let you down. And I dare say that our PNG survey or inspection tour will be closed today. Because just these two ore bodies are enough for Rongbao Mining to eat a lot of fat..."
