In the big mining area, it is not enough to have luck, you also need to have intelligence and information.

For example, in a certain area, there is probably where there is gold.

This information is available to large companies, but it is only a scattered area with few reserves, and it is rare to do detailed exploration, and for large companies, this kind of mining area has little mining value.

Ye Mu hooked up Adrison's shoulders and walked into the workshop of the fine mine: "The company is ready to split the mine area and sell it?"

"Yes. Adrison took out a cigarette and lit one for Ye Mu, and he lit it himself, and said, "1,790 square kilometers of land, divided into twenty-one pieces. Each area has gold...... No. 1 is the main mining area, don't think about this part, there are too many people staring at that piece of fat, and you don't have that strength. ”

"Got important information?"

"Yes. Two well-stocked gold mines have been discovered on a large scale, more alluvial placers. There's a problem with the company's finances, you know, the last in the big gold fields. ”

Ye Mu nodded, he had been mining in Yuxi Valley, but someone from the previous team had worked elsewhere. The final carnival of the big gold mining area, that is, after the main mining area has been depleted, before that, the mining companies will do further detailed exploration, and after determining that there is not much value to them, they will spin off the land in the mining area, auction it, and make the final profit. The large mining area is only the open part, and the underground part still has gold, and the company decided to sell the mining area due to the cost of mining and the financial situation.

Ye Mu and Andrisen have always had a 'cooperation', otherwise it would be impossible to rely on simple equipment to get to where they are now.

For example, the gold mine dug last year, Ye Mu bought the news from Andrisen. It's not a secret, like Karn and Both, they must have their own way......

"In the Yuxi Valley mining area, how much gold is there. Approximate number......"

"This ......," Andrisen hesitated.

"It's hard to do anything more in the Yuxigu mining area, and this year is a good luck. At the end of this quarter, I have plans to retire. Ye Mu took a puff of cigarette, this year is the biggest harvest for Ye Mu, after finishing this ticket, he can almost go home to find a wife and live a peaceful life. But the last carnival in the big gold mining area made Ye Mu's heart moved, if he got valuable information......

Andrisen frowned, and Ye Mu continued: "If you have reliable information, we can cooperate and invest in gold mines together. ”

Andrisen shook his head: "My job has a non-disclosure agreement. If you join you, you may go to jail. I do have news in my hands, but you know the auction process, from the second to the twenty-first, and the secret auction without revealing the address, this time it really depends on luck. ”

"What is the total amount of gold?"

"All...... There should be 2.5 tons in a large area, which has been proven. ”

Ye Mu took a deep breath of smoke, 2.5 tons, which seems like a lot, can be distributed in an area of 1790 square kilometers, and the gold of each mine is ...... Seldom. Now it's those two mines that I'm looking forward to......

Karn came in.

"Hi Hagi...... What's the matter?" Karn knew Andrisen, a senior at the Great Mining Management Company, the equivalent of the head of the security company, primarily responsible for the northern part of the mine. The area he is responsible for is also the area where Ye Mu's previous team was often active.

"The company is ready to spin off and sell the mining area. Andrisen, the head of security who was in charge of the exploration team some time ago. Ye Mu gave a brief introduction and explained the situation.

The Knox deposit has significant gold reserves, with a previously identified reserve of 174 tonnes of gold, and a previously excavated open pit mine producing 1 tonne a year. In 2008, the company announced that the open pit mine at Knox would be available until 2014, after the open pit had actually been depleted several years earlier. The only thing left is the underground gold mine and the reprocessing of the low-grade gold ore......

Data released last year showed that the mine produced 0.759 tonnes of gold.

It's a super gold mine, but ironically, the Golden Ross Gold Company, which owns the super golden eggs, is not in a good financial position. The world's fifth-largest gold mining company reported a net profit of $2.5 million in the second quarter, compared with a net loss of $52.7 million in the same period a year ago, according to data released last year...... The reason why last year made money was also the reason for the rise in gold prices.

Ye Mu also has some understanding of why such super companies lose money. For example, in the large gold mining area on their side, the average grade of gold is only 0.43 grams per tonne, and it takes almost 2.3 tons of ore to get one gram of gold......

Of course, this is not something Ye Mu should consider, he is only interested in the two mines, the approximate storage capacity and grade.

"It's illegal to sell information. Andrisen made a gesture of counting the money.

Buying intelligence here at Andrisen is not cheap. But the information he gives is usually very accurate......

"How much?"

"Two hundred. ”

"I think about it...... One more piece of information. Ye Mu habitually touched his chin.

"Open pit mine, 1.3 tonnes of gold. ”

Ye Mu threw away the cigarette butt and, as customary, melted 10 ounces of gold for Andrisen, and shoved a lump of gold into his hand. This information is not detailed enough, but if it is released, it can make countless people go crazy.

Of course, when Andrisen spoke out generously, he must have received the company's tacit approval. I believe that it will not be long before this news will be known. But rules are rules, and the first-hand news from Andrisen is worth the price.

"Thank you. Ye Mu put his arm around Andrisen's shoulders and walked out of the tin house.

The one from the gold mining company also packed his ivory and prepared to leave. Ye Mu went to send them off......

"Ye, what do you think about this? 1.3 tons of gold, worth more than $45 million......"

"After you dig it, ......," Ye Mu shook his head.

In large mines, the average grade of gold is 0.43 grams per tonne. By industry standards, only more than 0.5 g/t can be considered a gold mine, while some high-grade ores can contain tens to hundreds of grams of gold......

If the gold content is too small, it is likely to be beyond its means and not worth mining. The main thing is to know the gold content per ton of ore......

1.3 tonnes of gold reserves of the metal, really big news, but limited information. If you want more information, two hundred ounces of gold is equivalent to two hundred and ten thousand dollars. $200,000 is a lot of money, no matter where you are.

The most troublesome thing is the dark shooting. It's a trick that companies come up with in order to get the highest profits, meaning gambling with each other to see whose luck is better.

Let's put it this way, the land in the mining area is not worth much. Part of the mountains, part of the forest, you can't graze and you can't grow it. Forest trees are not the kind that can be cut down on a large scale...... Each piece of land is 80 square kilometers, which is equivalent to the area of a small and medium-sized township if it is in China. But here, if there is no gold mine, it can be described as 'worthless'. Now, using the method of secret auction, it is estimated that the total price of these 20 plots of land should be more than 50 million US dollars.

The information Ye Mu wants is not the mining area where the 1.3 tons of gold are located, but the detailed materials of this exploration, which will be worth 200,000 US dollars.

"I'll put that aside for a moment and I'll contact Andrisen. When it was time to eat, Ye Mu called Ye Xiao and Xia Qian to come over, have a big pot of rice together, and then say goodbye to everyone......
