Such an attitude made Chen Yuehui's heart light, Zheng Ming was also relieved, smiled a little, and said in his heart, Xudong is really good, and he has a big picture of the overall situation.

Chen Yuehui also got upright, because the thing he wanted to say was not a private matter, but a public matter, representing the meaning and decision-making of the high-level.

"Xudong, I heard that you have explored a large number of rare earth resources in Australia, and have signed a series of agreements and documents with the Australian side?"

This is not a secret, Chen Yuehui also knows, and when he asked like this again, he just wanted to further determine the specific situation, Wang Xudong fully understood this, and did not hide it, nodding his head.

"Yes, it's true, I was in one of the private territories in Australia, and we were lucky enough to have explored a lot of high-quality rare earth resources, the reserves of which are estimated to be in the tens of millions. ”

Tens of millions of tons!

Even though he had roughly known about this amazing reserve before, Chen Yuehui was still slightly excited when he heard Wang Xudong say it himself.

Such reserves, is really gratifying, too exciting, China is a big country of rare earth resources, the remaining mineable rare earth resources are estimated to be only tens of millions of tons, Wang Xudong's private territory, its rare earth resources reserves have reached tens of millions of tons.

"Xudong, your luck is really a little against the sky!"

Exploring such a huge amount of rare earth resources, even Chen Yuehui can only be attributed to Wang Xudong's luck, in fact, this is the result of Wang Xudong's use of the "god-level big mine" system to gather all the rare earth resources with a radius of 1,000 kilometers and a depth of 4,500 meters.

Whether it meets the conditions for industrial mining or does not meet the conditions for industrial mining, they are all gathered, which has an astonishing reserve of tens of millions of tons.

Wang Xudong also understood that Chen Yuehui mentioned these rare earth resources to himself, and what he said must be related to rare earths.

Sure enough, Chen Yuehui said: "Xudong, you also know that our domestic rare earth resources have been mined for many years, and the total amount of resources has become less and less, according to the current mining volume, it will be all mined in about 20 years, and at that time, we will not be a big country with rare earth resources, but a country with poor rare earth resources, and we need to import rare earths abroad." ”

Rare earths are strategic resources, the world's reserves are limited, those countries with rare earth resources must also be reluctant to sell, even if you want to import, it is estimated that you can't buy it.

With such a huge industrial system, the demand for rare earths in many places is indispensable, and without rare earths, it will definitely be greatly affected.

Wang Xudong knew this very well, and said with a straight face: "Minister Chen, you continue to say, what do you want me to do." ”

Chen Yuehui said: "The top management has formed a unified opinion, in order to preserve our limited rare earth resources, we have begun to limit the amount of mining and export, so as to extend the mining life of our domestic rare earth resources. ”

This is very easy to understand, there are so many rare earth resources, a little less mining, only by controlling the amount of mining, can be mined for a longer time.

However, the demand for rare earth resources in various domestic industries, especially in the military industry and high-tech industries, is increasing, which is contradictory to restricting mining.

So, Chen Yuehui thought twice, and after reporting to the senior management to obtain consent, he personally came to the door and found Wang Xudong.

"Xudong, what we mean is that you sell a part of the rare earth to the country every year, well, 500,000 tons per year, is that okay?"

After speaking, he looked at Wang Xudong with hope, waiting for Wang Xudong's answer.

500,000 tons is not a small amount, on the contrary, it is a large amount. Chen Yuehui was also a little apprehensive, afraid that Wang Xudong would refuse, or that he didn't have so many rare earths.

Zheng Ming also knew that 500,000 tons was not a small amount, and he did not persuade Wang Xudong to agree, but Wang Xudong made his own decision.

Wang Xudong groaned, and after thinking about it, he still agreed, "Minister Chen, although 500,000 tons is a lot, we will try our best to meet it." ”

Surprise!

Chen Yuehui seemed to have been hit by a huge surprise, the apprehension and worry in his heart were swept away, and the whole person relaxed and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Xudong, great, your contribution is great, you have made great contributions to our country and our future generations. ”

With the 500,000 tons of finished rare earths sold by Xudong Mining Group every year, China can further limit production and leave limited rare earth resources to our future generations as much as possible.

After agreeing to this matter, Wang Xudong also remembered in his heart that there are more than 58 million tons of rare earth resources in his private territory, even if 1 million tons are mined every year, it is enough to mine for decades, and the reserves are completely sufficient.

The key is the scale of extraction, as well as the scale of refining, etc. Wang Xudong's original plan was to mine about 100 million tons of rare earth ore every year, and about 1 million tons of finished rare earths could be refined.

Such a scale, is very huge, now it seems that it may not be enough, Sanlian Special Steel Group needs hundreds of thousands of tons of finished rare earths every year, plus 500,000 tons sold to the country, which is more than 1 million tons.

Rare earths must be a hot commodity, I don't want to think about it, some countries will learn that Xudong Mining Group has mined a large number of rare earths, they will definitely rush to the door, squeeze their heads and want to buy these rare earths.

In order to win people's hearts and minds, let Xudong Mining Group have a large number of followers and supporters, and tie these people together, Wang Xudong plans to sell part of the rare earth resources to the outside world every year and sell them to companies or countries that have a good relationship with him.

The annual output of 1 million tons of finished rare earths is not enough in terms of production capacity!

The ore mining capacity of this rare earth mine should be 200 million tons, or even more than 300 million tons, and it can roughly refine 2 or 3 million tons of finished rare earth ore.

The annual output of 2 or 3 million tons of finished rare earths can not only meet the needs of Sanlian Special Steel Group, but also meet the needs of China, and some of them can be exported.

Fortunately, the land is open enough and vast enough, even if the scale of construction is larger, there is still enough space, and as for the funds, there is no shortage of them.

Wang Xudong agreed to 500,000 tons of rare earths, Chen Yuehui was completely happy, chatting happily with Wang Xudong, and Zheng Ming also chatted a few words from time to time.

As the Minister of Mines, he must be most concerned about mineral resources, not only at home, but also abroad.

No, Chen Yuehui said: "Xudong, do you know what happened in country Y, I heard that there is no oil in several oil fields in their country, and they have gathered a large number of experts to find the reason, but until now they are also confused." ”

Zheng Ming obviously heard about this incident, and he was also a little puzzled: "This matter is really strange, how could there be no oil all of a sudden." ”

Wang Xudong snickered in his heart, all this was done by Wang Xudong, who let country Y extract oil in the disputed waters, and drove all the ships that approached, including themselves, they also dared to drive away.

They deserve no oil.

I was secretly happy in my heart, but I didn't show it on my face. There is not a single oil in the entire territory of country Y, not a single drop, and they still fantasize about finding the reason, which must be in vain, and they can't figure it out even if they want to.

The three of them chatted for a long time in the living room, Wu Yaping went downstairs and greeted warmly: "Lao Chen, let's go after eating, I'll go prepare the meal." ”

Chen Yuehui hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, no need, the talk has been finished, and I have to leave." ”

After speaking, Chen Yuehui got up and Zheng Ming said: "Xudong, send one to Minister Chen." ”

Wang Xudong sent Chen Yuehui to the door of the villa, and when he got into the car, Chen Yuehui said: "Xudong, I am waiting for your good news, and I also hope that you will mine rare earths as soon as possible." ”

Wang Xudong said loudly: "Minister Chen, there will be no problem, and soon we will mine the first batch of rare earths." ”

In the mining of rare earth resources, Wang Xudong grasped it relatively tightly, and Li Wangdong, who was in charge of the construction of rare earth mines, did not slack off in the slightest, and it would not take long to start large-scale mining.

Of course, mining is not a problem, because open-pit mining is relatively simple, and the largest project lies in the refinery of rare earth resources.

Wang Xudong has already planned that the rare earth ore will be mined and sent to a refinery not far from the mine for preliminary processing, so that the rare earth ore will become a semi-finished product, that is, a crude product.

That's all.

These semi-finished products can then be shipped domestically or sold to countries or companies that need them. It is up to them to refine it.

The semi-finished rare earths shipped to China will also be sent to domestic refineries to finally obtain the finished rare earths. Because there is a perfect refining system in China, and there are also ready-made refining plants.

After seeing Chen Yuehui get in the car and leave, Wang Xudong made a phone call to Li Wangdong and instructed him to speed up the construction of the open-pit rare earth mine on the one hand, and explain to him that he needed to expand the scale and need to mine more than 300 million tons of rare earth ore per year.

300 million tons of rare earth ore are mined every year, which is estimated to be enough.

After arranging these, Wang Xudong turned around and went back to the villa, while Wu Yaping was already preparing a meal with the nanny, and the familiar smell of food wafted from the kitchen......

Wang Xudong was not in a hurry to return to Donghai City, but still stayed in the capital, had nothing to do with Zheng Xiaotong to go shopping, and visit some scenic spots near the capital.

Wang Xudong even thought in his heart, am I a little happy.

Today, the two of them drove together by Wang Xudong to a new scenic spot of the Great Wall, which is an undeveloped section of the Great Wall, but it is highly evaluated in the hearts of travelers, and it is a new hot spot for self-driving travel.

Wang Xudong drove away from the villa, Zheng Xiaotong sat in the co-pilot's seat, the two talked and laughed, and drove towards the outside of the city.

Zheng Xiaotong said happily: "Brother Dong, that section of the Great Wall is very beautiful, and the surrounding scenery is also beautiful, but the location is a little off." ”

Wang Xudong also said: "I really admire those travelers, they actually found such a good place, let's go over and take a look at the beautiful scenery there." ”

Both were in a good mood.

However, it didn't take long for Wang Xudong to feel that something was wrong, and his intuition told him that he was being followed.

The second one is sent!

In the continuation codeword, there is another chapter, which will be sent a little later.
