Chapter 1317 It's Not Easy to Open Mines in the United States

It's good that this world hasn't changed too bizarrely, but it may be that the different changes between Zhang Nan's own two lives have caused some things to change slightly.

Five years ago, his influence on the world was not particularly great, but now it is more and more influential with the change of ability.

The simplest one, even the presidents of small West African countries have been replaced by themselves, and the changes have changed a lot.

There are pros and cons, and the advantages of the Reborn will become smaller and smaller in such changes, and perhaps the 911 will really only be a classic in the future.

But the world also has its own trajectory, butterflies are just butterflies after all, even if there is no 911, what about 1011?

Whatever, as long as you don't crash into your own Empire State Building.

As an aside, Nicole and Jenny have parachutes in their offices, and there are more than one pair, but I hope they never need them.

Since the huge amount of gold in the Carlin Gold Belt is still lying quietly underground, Zhang Nan has no reason not to eat this piece!

With a map of Nevada in the living room, Zhang Nan pointed to Carlin and Bart Mountettin on Highway 80, and said to Jacques Cortés, a gold mining expert: "If, I mean, if there are giant gold belts in these two areas, or gold mines with industrial mining value, what should we do?"

Cortez thought for a moment, and then said, "Two ways, boss."

The easiest way is to buy the land outright, but it's hard. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the map, "I am not familiar with Carlin and Bart Mounting, and I have never been there, but I can guess that there is not much private land in the vicinity.

The whole of Nevada is basically in a similar situation, especially in the north-central part of the country, which is too inhospitable, and since the Westward Expansion Movement, these desert areas have not been the focus of agricultural and animal husbandry development.

There are not many private farms, and if they do, they are near rivers, and the area of the giant gold mines is not small, regardless of the type. Besides, if it is on private land, the probability of finding it before is also very high..."

Private land ownership in the United States means that its owners also have ownership of underground mineral deposits, and although there are many restrictions on what can be mined, it is always easier to re-mine the land.

“… Nine times out of ten, that land is under the control of the state government, and if it can be basically determined that it is worth mining, it is simply impossible to buy land from the state government and then mine it.

Even if we can buy the land first, because the domestic mining license issuance is very strict, the approval cycle is still relatively long, and the federal and state laws and regulations on mining are complex and often amended, if we buy state-owned land first and then think about mining, the artificial resistance will be unimaginable..."

Cortez's words Zhang Nan can understand: no one likes to be deceived, the United States is not Canada!

In the northern part of Canada, you are welcome to open a mine for development, and all the formalities required for mining will be completed at one time when you buy land.

The U.S. side is restricting mining and mining, and there are very strict environmental protection regulations, the mining industry is a highly polluting industry, what sewage discharge, harmful gas treatment, waste landfill and greening and so on are all troublesome, and it will also increase production costs.

In Canada, you can say "I just want to find a mine, and then mine and make a fortune", no problem, everything is OK.

If the United States still follows this routine, people will not give you land at all, and they may be able to get approval for the development of agricultural production.

In the name of agricultural development, first take the land, and in the future engage in mining production?

This is the United States, those environmentalists can annoy you to death, you don't need the government to jump out and set up obstacles, and you don't want to make a fortune from the mines within a few decades!

But there is always a way, isn't the United States going to open mines!

Cortés added: "Boss, I think this matter can only go through the formal procedure, first apply for the exploration right of state-owned land, and at the same time attach the priority mining right, step by step."

It's a bit time-consuming, even if the whole process goes smoothly, to the step of formal industrial mining, probably... It will take a year and a half to two years.

Of course, this is just my personal opinion, and the company's management team may have a more comprehensive opinion. ”

Cortés is an expert in gold mining, but he is not an expert in mining operations, and he does not make random decisions.

There is no need for him to remind him more, and Zhang Nan will not simply listen to a person's opinion and blindly command.

The Carlin Gold Belt is the largest and most abundant gold mine in the Western Hemisphere, and it will require a huge amount of capital investment to swallow it up!

But you can "hurry" first, Zhang Nan plans to go over there to have a look.

As soon as he heard Zhang Nan's thoughts, Cortez immediately said: "Boss, don't go with great fanfare, you have to hide your identity."

Your goal is big, and if you put up a scene to attract too much attention, the place is poor!"

Even if it is determined that the mining negotiation process will be initiated, it is best to follow the formal procedures and not let others think that the general boss of "Sunshine Star" is very concerned about this matter.

Zhang Nan is also a celebrity in the United States, if this is the case, he will run over there first, and it will be strange if he doesn't attract the attention of others.

What to do?

Zhang Nan has his own statement on this, saying: "I didn't think about walking from the ground, just looking at it in the air and finding some inspiration." ”

Cortés was a little confused by this, but Kwan and Nicole were not surprised: this was a guy who could draw circles on a map to find diamond mines, and it was not surprising that anything happened to him.

After some discussion, we will leave tomorrow morning.

Nicole has an important meeting to go back to New York, so she can't accompany her man, and the next morning at the airport, she said to Zhang Nan: "Get another big gold mine for our family, you draw a circle on the map, and leave the following things to me." ”

Zhang Nan understands!

The Gulfstream that Nicole was riding was gone, and Zhang Nan was about to take a plane, but he didn't choose the Gulfstream, but a Cessna 208 with a single-engine turboprop that the company went to get.

Small planes with excellent sightlines, and can also take off and land on simple sandy runways. The seats inside are also quite spacious, and there are up to 15 seats in the cabin for 10 passengers, and we will go.

The two pilots are from the branch, plus Zhang Nan's group is just 12 people, basically no luggage, and there are 12 more parachutes in the cabin.

The boss never sits on a plane without a parachute!

The air distance from Las Vegas to Carlin is nearly 700 kilometers, which is more than the range of Cessna 208.

It's okay, there are small airports all over the United States, and the plane flew more than 500 kilometers north and then landed at a simple airport to refuel, and then took off again and flew directly to Carlin on the side of Highway 80.

Half an hour later, Zhang Nan in the cabin saw the town by the Red Fort River: looking down from the low altitude, this Carlin town looked at more than ten or twenty families in the sky!
