In the city of Anut, the monsters left behind have already built the first batch of equipment. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The equipment, which was urgently brought in by cargo planes, was a mini-smelter that was easy to assemble, except for a small testing laboratory.

The two Giant God I models that General Mopu bought with a lot of money were also recruited by Ye Qing and kept for mining after a slight modification.

Two mini-smelters, with the Titan I as the mobile chassis, are equipped with mineral crushing equipment, small chemical reactors, small magnetic separators, flotation machines, etc., which are not technically difficult for the giant industry.

The demand for dysprosium metal in Behemoth Industries is too urgent.

In the two days that Ye Qing went to Nicasia on a business trip, there was not much metal dysprosium left in the factory. In another day, we will face the dilemma of no metal-free dysprosium.

So now relying on these two sets of equipment, it can smelt a little is a little. Copper uranium mica minerals, Ye Qing plans to put them aside for the time being, and wait until the Jushen engineering ship, which is equipped with more powerful mining and smelting equipment, arrives, and then talk about uranium ore purification.

Of course, these two mini-smelters only have the capacity to process ten tons of crude rare earth metal fines per day. Ye Qing plans to buy a cargo plane to transport all of these coarse ore powders back by air for further processing and purification.

In the middle of the night, the convoy headed for the Sotu Rainforest returned home.

Ye Qing took a cold shower comfortably, washed off the sweat from the radiation protection suit, and then took the ore sample into the mini laboratory.

It's a laboratory, but it's more like a small shipping container.

Of course, this is a premium container. The box is filled with insulation and equipped with a temperature and humidity control system. The interior uses space to the limit, and even an electroscanning microscope and an atomic absorption spectrometer are stuffed into a few square meters of space.

There was a material expert sitting in the laboratory, and Ye Qing waited for more than half an hour, and the ore sample test report was in his hand.

Rare earth elements are a collective term for seventeen rare elements.

This report showed that the samples taken out by Ye Qing and his team from the interior of the mountain range contained a total of nine rare metal elements, as well as other elements.

Cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, gadolinium, dysprosium......

As with uranium ore, the content of special metal elements in rare earth ores, more than one percent of each, is already a fine bonanza, and the element content in the sample is indicated in detail in the report.

The phosphate content is 65.2%.

This is the bulk material of the ore that makes up monazite, just as iron ore is mostly stone. Of course, this substance is more useful than stone and can be made into chemical raw materials, but as you can tell from the name, its value is very low.

The content of cerium trioxide is 0.32%.

This rare metal is very interesting, and when reduced to cerium metal by chemical reduction, it can burn and burst into dazzling sparks when the metal is gently folded. However, the content is too small to be mined.

Praseodymium metal content 0.97%.

It is also an interesting rare metal, worth eight hundred dollars, a kilogram of it, which must be placed in mineral oil to be stored. Because in the air, it has a half-life of less than twenty hours, and finally turns into a green, fragile waste.

The neodymium metal content is 0.41%.

This...... It is also a difficult metal to serve, and it must be stored in an airtight container. In contact with air, it will quickly oxidize, darken, and lose its activity, and at the same time it is very flammable.

The characteristics of these rare metals are also the reason why the mining department has been slow to approve the application to the mining department to increase the amount of dysprosium mining.

Extracting dysprosium metal will inevitably refine other rare elements together, but in the case of stable market supply, how to deal with these rare metals that are extremely difficult to store?

The other metals are also scarce, and they are also more difficult to serve than princesses. I don't know if it was intentional by the master of materials, or if the metal dysprosium was the target mineral this time, and the reason why it needs to be introduced on a separate piece of paper. Ye Qing had to turn to the next page to find the introduction of dysprosium metal.

After reading the previous metals, Ye Qing took a deep breath and turned the report to the second page.

Dysprosium metal, density 8.55 g/cm3, monomer metal density, accounted for 1.53% of the collected samples.

Ye Qing's fast-beating heart gradually calmed down and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

1.53%, which shows that monazite has a very high mining value, every 100 tons of monazite minerals, at least 1.5 tons of dysprosium metal can be refined, with a purity of 99.99.

Other rare metals, don't do it for the time being.

Unable to rest, Ye Qing immediately asked the metal experts to drive two mini-smelters and two Giant God I types recruited from General Mopu to the edge of the Suotu rainforest.

"Mr. Ye, this... What is this?" General Mup had been waiting for news from the side, and he had quickly adjusted his mentality after his scientific values had been completely subverted. Now when he sees every product displayed by the Behemoth Industry, he subconsciously labels it as "extraordinary" in his heart.

For example, the two strange devices that roared past him were somewhat like the drilling platforms that General Mup had seen on television, but they were many times smaller, only twenty square meters in size, and they had a complex structure no less than that of a drilling platform.

"Simple mineral processing plant. Ye Qing smiled comfortably and said, "General Mopu, I want to trouble you for the time being, send someone to patrol the periphery of the Suotu Rainforest, and don't let irrelevant people enter." ”

"Don't go near the mountains, where radiation is everywhere, and staying for a long time is very harmful to the body. In addition, the two small factories need to consume 2,000 litres of diesel per day to generate electricity, and you need someone to deliver it. ”

"Rest assured that this task will be entrusted to me. General Mopp slapped his fist on the shoulder, and with envious eyes, he sent away the two factories, which were "not at all simple".

……

When the fiery red sun rises over the tawny heath, Anut welcomes a new day.

The new day is still hot, and the whole Anut district is still the same.

The women took care of the children under the trees, and the men gathered together, either complaining about the mess in their lives, or thinking about where they could go today to earn a little bit of money.

But around the Suotu Rainforest, a very different change has taken place. Two strange mini-factories have settled here, two strange metal devices, and climbed the mountains.

At the same time, several pickup trucks rushed into villages near the rainforest.

The soldiers in the pickup truck warned them in a serious tone that they were not allowed to approach the area around the Sotu rainforest again, where military vehicles would patrol for twenty hours, and anyone who dared to offend the rules set by General Mopu would be beaten at least and broken with a leg.

Some elderly villagers had the courage to ask what would happen if the rainy season was delayed and they ran out of food.

"In the future, a factory will be built there, and the merciful owner of the factory will give you twenty dollars of food per capita every month, and you are still worried about starvation?"

Most of the villagers didn't understand what dollars were, so the soldiers in the pickup truck threw a bulging sack of barley from the car, saying that it was twenty dollars of food.

Seeing the yellow, orange, and plump food, all the villagers' eyes almost popped out.

The gods are above, this bag of fragrant barley, a man in the prime of life can't eat it in a month, let alone the elderly and children?

Doesn't that mean......

Can you do nothing in the future and play every day when you are full?

A few dozen miles from the nearest village in the Suotu rainforest, the more than 200 indigenous people in this village were asked to relocate 15 kilometers away.

In the face of General Mopu's orders, no one in the village dared to disobey.

I thought it was the hard life of my home being destroyed and living in the wilderness. Unexpectedly, the soldiers told them that the benevolent owner of the factory would give a thousand dollars in compensation to each relocating resident. And from today onwards, each person will receive a monthly allowance of one bag of barley.

What is a thousand dollars, and what is compensation?

But a bag of barley they really understand.

It's a top-notch delicacy that can only be tasted on important festivals. Bake it into a cake, and if you add minced fat ants or fleshy scorpions, it is really a day that only the gods can enjoy.
