Chapter 439: Searching all the way
"I know that there is no such good thing!" After experimenting for a while, Mo Xie couldn't see the evolution bar growing, so he knew that he was daydreaming.
However, there were enough surprises today, so Mo Ye was not much disappointed.
The next time is to mine the stones, decompose the ores, refurbish the spiral propulsion vehicle, and when this series of things is done, a small iron ore of tens of thousands of tons has been mined by him.
Not caring about the wear and tear of the propeller, but also constantly strengthening the propeller, making the speed of the propeller faster, and the speed of Moxie mining has also begun to increase.
Therefore, the speed of pyrite mining this time is not slow.
After digging the pyrite, along with some rare minerals underground, it was also collected by Mo Ye, and at this time, Mo Ye was satisfied to drill out of the ground.
At this time, Mo Ye's car has also been modified, at least the iron sheet on the outside has become a super-strong titanium alloy, and in this way, the weight has not increased much.
At this time, Mo Ye's idea was a bit wild, because the appearance of the spiral propulsion vehicle gave him more ideas in studying nuclear reactors.
"Looks like I'm going to Russia!" Nothing else is clear, he originally read a news that said that there was a large amount of nuclear @ fuel loss in the former Soviet Union.
Such a thing suddenly sounded like a joke, but after Mo Ye carefully analyzed it, he found that it was the real situation.
At that time, Mo Xie almost forgot the news, but he knew that near the Arctic Circle, the former Soviet Union did build a lot of lighthouses, and those lighthouses were difficult to maintain, because there were few people and road traffic was difficult, so in order to save energy, the former Soviet government invested a batch of lithium-core batteries.
It is indeed a nuclear battery, but it uses lithium element, and Mo Ye does not know how it is made, but he knows that it is a small battery of thousands of kilograms, but it can maintain the operation of the lighthouse for more than 50 years.
In an inaccessible place, if there is such a big killing weapon, naturally some people will peep at it, so it is easy to understand that this thing is lost abroad.
In fact, there are many people selling nuclear batteries on the Internet, but the technology that can really change the world is still in the hands of several major powers in the world.
For example, lithium-core batteries, which were all technology fifty or sixty years ago, but even now, this technology has not entered the civilian market.
If it weren't for Mo Xie paying attention to this information, he would definitely not know this kind of information.
Of course, there is a lot of high-tech information related to it, such as the biochip developed by the United States twenty or thirty years ago, which is directly transplanted into the brain of the mouse, so that through this chip, humans can let the mouse accurately receive information and execute various commands.
If it can be transplanted into mice, why can't it be transplanted in humans?
Of course, there are also some technologies that sound like black technology, but Mo Ye knows that it is real.
For example, the frogman on the bottom of the sea, this is the category of biotechnology, and the transformed and strengthened human can survive on the bottom of the sea for more than four hours without any auxiliary equipment, which can keep up with the whale.
It was because he knew too much that Mo Ye had never underestimated the hidden forces of countries around the world, so even if he got the super biological detector, he had been cautious.
If he could get this kind of technological product that was hundreds of years ahead of the earth, why couldn't anyone else get it? Not to mention the major governments that have existed for hundreds of years?
Therefore, by now, Mo Ye still has to keep a low profile, at least before he can figure out the scientific and technological heritage of the world's major countries, he needs to keep a low profile.
Just when Mo Ye was thinking about how to go around the world and carefully scan their highest scientific and technological achievements, he finally discovered the sapphire mine hidden in the mountains.
This time, Mo Xie didn't want to be disturbed, so he didn't go directly to the center of the ranch, there were too many people there, so he directly approached the place where the sapphire was found earlier from the periphery, and in a mountain ten kilometers to the east, he finally discovered the source of the gem vein.
I have to say that Australia is rich in land and resources, and the area of this sapphire mine here is not small, and it stretches for a long time.
Through the regolith layer on the outside, Mo Ye calculated a little, and the sapphires here didn't know how much had been washed away by the water.
However, it didn't matter how many, if Mo Xie could obtain a large number of sapphires here, he would be able to synthesize more sapphires.
A few kilometers of ore layers, it is very easy to excavate, Mo Ye completed the excavation of the main ore vein in less than two days, and at this time, he has been able to use the super biological detector to directly synthesize sapphires, and the synthetic gems are even more precious!
Sapphire is a common name for corundum gemstones in addition to ruby, other colors of corundum gemstones, the main component is alumina, blue sapphire, is due to a small amount of titanium and iron impurities mixed in it.
Therefore, when others get the sapphire mine, they can only select a small amount of gem-quality sapphires to use, but Mo Ye is different, some sapphires of very poor quality, he can form new sapphires with a little processing.
And he can also control the color and size, and even some natural sapphire imperfections, he can also show them perfectly.
In this way, it is completely impossible to distinguish between man-made gemstones and natural gemstones.
The most distinctive feature of sapphire is its uneven color, with parallel hexagonal cylinders on the inside, straight bands of color and growth lines of different shades.
As long as these characteristics are reproduced, Mo Ye believes that it is impossible for any gem appraiser to find that the sapphire in his hand is artificially made.
Of course, artificially manufactured sapphire, nature can not be just a color, gem-quality corundum in nature, in addition to the red ruby, the rest of the colors such as blue, light blue, green, yellow, gray, colorless, etc., are called sapphire, or color sapphire, that is, in front of the sapphire to add a color name, such as pink sapphire.
The chemical composition of sapphire is alumina, mainly colored by iron and titanium, and corundum contains trace elements such as iron and titanium, and presents blue, sky blue, light blue and other colors, among which the royal blue and cornflower color are the best because they are strong but not black.
Therefore, as long as Mo Ye adjusts the trace elements slightly, he can get gemstones of various colors.
Of course, the top-level sapphire is still the star sapphire, and as long as Mo Ye has the star sapphire in his hand, it is not difficult to copy the star sapphire.
Therefore, Mo Xie studied the most star sapphire, and now he knows that when the three groups of inclusions parallel to the bottom surface and arranged in a directional direction can be produced when the curved cut is rich in three groups of inclusions parallel to the bottom surface and arranged in a directional direction, it is called "star sapphire".
Star sapphire is named after the large number of tiny silky inclusions (rutile) that grow inside, and the reflection of light by the inclusions in three directions, resulting in six starbursts on the top of the polished gemstone.
Star sapphires are usually translucent to transparent due to the inclusions inside, which create a star effect, but also reduce the transparency of the gemstone.
The six star lines of a fine star sapphire are intact and transparent, and their meeting point is located in the center of the gemstone, moving with the turn of the light.
And recently, when Mo Xie was collecting sapphires, he didn't forget to study the star sapphire, and he also studied a purple and blue star.
The Violet-Blue Star is a 67.98 carat star sapphire that is indigo blue in daylight, flawless, fully transparent, and has perfect starlight, flexibility, clarity and brightness.
Even more precious is that this is a "color-changing star sapphire", which is blue under a white light, purple under a yellow light source, and red under ultraviolet light.
The identification of color-changing gemstones with ultraviolet light is also a major discovery in gemstone research, all color-changing gemstones, whether faceted or curved, will show red phenomenon under the irradiation of high-energy ultraviolet light, because of the presence of chromium in the color-changing gemstones, chromium ions are reflected through the inside of the gemstone under the irradiation of high-energy light source, so the gemstone is red.
This grade of sapphire is already the top-grade sapphire, and Mo Ye's grade of sapphire can be produced, does he still need to continue to look for sapphire mines?
Since there was no need, Mo Ye was not following the dry river to look for the sapphires that had washed out.
By this time, Mo Xie had already had a complete plan, and now what he lacked was not gems or money, but resources.
So, on this day, Mo Ye once again took out the powered glider he made and prepared to fly.
And after this period of research and improvement, this aircraft has directly become an improvised aircraft.
The simplest alloy skeleton, the best electric motors, and the largest nuclear battery combine to form a new electric aircraft.
Although the speed is not fast, it only reaches the level of 100 kilometers per hour, but this is enough for Mo Ye to use.
Central Australia is very vast, but flying 100 kilometers in an hour, Mo Xie can also quickly scan a large area of land, so almost every few hours, he will have a big harvest.
Coal, iron ore, copper ore, titanium ore, gold ore, silver ore, nickel ore, aluminum ore, etc., Mo Ye has found a lot, and other rare mineral deposits, although the number is relatively small, he has not made less.
In this way, scanning all the way, searching all the way, until Mo Ye felt that it was enough, comprehensive enough, and able to support the needs of the manufacturing industry, Mo Ye stopped.
On this day, Mo Xie searched all the way to the north of Australia, which is the closest to Bougainville Island, so Mo Xie planned to go to sea from here and fly directly to Bougainville Island, and when he hollowed out all kinds of minerals on that island, he would come back quietly.
Flying over the ocean, Mo Ye is still the first time to do it, however, although the electric plane is full of speed, the nuclear power will not lack power, so Mo Ye has nothing to worry about.
Flying at a low altitude, Mo Ye can also scan the situation in the ocean, so Mo Ye has great hopes for this flight.
Sure enough, as soon as he flew into the ocean, he found a school of fish, a school of salmon, hundreds of thousands.
