Chapter 750: Kyanite Mine
Li Yi's gaze lingered on the huge piece of Hetian jade for a while, and then continued to look forward. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It may be that the energy of the condensed jade has been absorbed by this large piece of jade, so a fault appeared in the vein that has lasted for more than 200 meters without being broken. Soon, however, 20 meters away, the original vein shifted upwards by almost 10 meters, and Li Yi discovered a new vein.
Better......
The veins have been intermittent for nearly a kilometer. Finally, about 100 meters above the mine cave that Brother Hong and they excavated, the ore vein was completely cut off.
The kilometer-long veins were like a giant dragon, and this image lingered in Li Yi's mind. He roughly estimated that according to the reserves and quality he saw, the value of this vein was likely to exceed 30 billion!
300 billion!
Li Yi didn't know if this was the largest Hetian jade mine ever discovered, but this number was so amazing that for a while, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
"Let's go, let's look somewhere else."
Li Yi casually wandered around while thinking about the performance of the veins and surfaces along the way just now. According to the geological characteristics, just from the surface, it is basically impossible to see that there is such an amazing Hetian jade mine underground.
This should be the reason why Brother Hong and they have not found out before.
In Li Yi's view, the only flaw in this vein is the ravine. In that ravine, there were some rough stones that had been washed down from the veins by the flood, and he could think from these signs that there might be a mine above the ravine, and most of the experts like Academician Zhu would not have thought of it.
However, judging from the depth of burial of the veins at present, it is not known how many years ago. Moreover, he came to this inference based on the perspective of almost the entire ravine, and it is difficult to say that Academician Zhu and they can make the same inference with the occasional few samples.
What's more, even if it were inferred, the depth at which the vein would be buried would be an obstacle.
Li Yi was caught in a fierce ideological struggle.
It stands to reason that he was invited by Brother Hong to help with prospecting, and since he has found it, he should tell the other party.
However, no one knew in advance that this vein would be so hidden, and the reserves were so amazing, so the two sides did not talk about the problem after finding the vein.
His friendship with Brother Hong is not enough for him to give away such an amazing fortune for nothing!
However, if he didn't say that he would take over after Brother Hong gave up this mining area, he would have laid a mortal enemy for himself.
According to the information provided by Zeng Xing before, Brother Hong's family is very powerful in the northwest, so even if he takes over this mining area, most of them will not have the ability to dig out all the mineral deposits safely.
"Wealth is moving, 10,000 yuan can buy a life, let alone 300 billion?"
Li Yi sneered twice, and decided to take a look first, what if Academician Zhu and they found out?
After walking aimlessly along the hillside, Li Yi received a call from Brother Hong that it was time for lunch.
"How is it, Academician Zhu, are they sure?"
Back in the ravine, seeing Academician Zhu and the others studying around a few pieces of rough stones dug out of the sampling point, Li Yi asked casually.
"It's not very optimistic, none of the other four sampling sites have been found, and only this one has found these rough stones. However, after expanding the scope, nothing was found. ”
Brother Hong's brows were tightly locked, and he continued:
"Academician Zhu, they now have two inferences, one is that there were originally ore veins here, but due to changes in the earth's crust, the ore veins have shifted their positions, leaving only a few rough stones. The other is that the veins are above this ravine. ”
Li Yi frowned, sure enough, they didn't ignore this possibility.
"Did you find anything over there?"
"Not yet."
Brother Hong saw that Li Yi didn't prepare anything, so he ran casually all morning, and he didn't have much hope, so this answer was also expected by him.
He smiled, patted Li Yi on the shoulder, and said:
"It's okay, prospecting is not so simple, and it is already very fortunate that so many discoveries can be made in just a few days. Let's eat first, and after eating, go to the ravine and look at it, and you should be able to draw conclusions. ”
After hurriedly eating the bento box in the insulated lunch box, a group of people began to move towards the top of the ravine. Seeing that Academician Zhu and the others were really the same as him at the beginning, focusing their attention on the rocky area, Li Yi said hello to Brother Hong and continued to wander around with Gu Feng.
This time he was going to go a little further and leave the area behind. If you can find another vein in a new place, even if it's not a vein, just a mine, the problem may be solved.
Because there was no drag from the large army, and the two were in good health, Li Yi went far this time. He scanned the underground all the way until he reached a position about seven or eight kilometers away from the ravine before he stopped, ready to turn around and walk back at a different height.
When he came, he chose a height that was level with where they had arrived at the beginning, and this time, he was going to raise the altitude by a hundred meters.
"The XJ Hetianyu metallogenic belt stretches for thousands of kilometers, but how large is the metallogenic belt of this QH jade, but I have not seen the corresponding information, anyway, I think there must be more than these three mining areas......"
Li Yi was chatting casually with Gu Feng while looking around, and suddenly, his eyes flashed and he stopped. About forty meters above him, he saw several flashes of blue!
Blue? Could it be a sapphire?
He pretended to change direction casually, staring at the largest of them as he went.
It is a dark blue hedron about the size of a baby's fist, radial in the form of seven obelisk crystals of various sizes, like a crystal cluster.
This crystal is crystal clear, and it does look like a crystal, but it is definitely not a crystal, and certainly not a sapphire.
What's that?
Li Yi's gaze was slightly skewed, and he saw another crystal, the shape of this piece is flat and slat-like, and the structure is a complete and independent crystal, but the blue is slightly lighter, and there is some white mixed in the middle of the blue.
"Slat-shaped, white in the basket, with parallel stripes on the crystal plane......"
Li Yi tried hard to think about it, several possibilities flashed in his heart one by one, his brows stretched out suddenly, he had already thought of what this should be, this is kyanite!
Kyanite is a natural refractory raw material mineral with high refractory degree and large volume expansion at high temperature, with a wide range of applications, which can be used to produce technical ceramics, spark plugs, ball mill spheres and other substances, and use it as the main raw material to produce refractory bricks and profiles, which are often used in key parts of equipment such as hot blast furnaces, hot wind towers, and reheat furnaces.
Of course, the main reason why he knew this material was that it was also a gemstone, which was usually used to make things like bracelets, necklaces, and rings.
The price of kyanite is relatively low, depending on the quality, the price of gem-quality kyanite per gram ranges from about 20 to 100 yuan, and only a very few of the best can be sold for thousands of yuan a gram.
The world's most famous sources of kyanite are probably Switzerland and Austria, with more than a dozen other countries occurring. There are about 20 known kyanite mines in China, but there are very few gem-quality mines, and most of them are used for industrial purposes.
Li Yi walked to the vicinity while thinking, bent down and dug twice on the ground with his hand, and dug a crystal with a sharp corner in his hand.
Wiped off the floating soil and looked at it carefully, opened the spirit card, and soon got the exact information, yes, this is indeed a kyanite!
Actually found a kyanite mine on Kunlun Mountain, and it was still an open-pit mine, Li Yi couldn't help but be interested.
He threw the hedron to Gu Feng, who looked curious, and then turned on the perspective and looked towards the ground in front of him. Soon, the dots of blue came into his eyes one after another, and this was actually an open-pit bonanza! Moreover, at the extreme distance of his perspective, he can still see the figure of kyanite! In other words, the depth of this mine is at least more than 60 meters, and if it is deeper, it is very likely to penetrate the mountain to the surface or even deeper!
After confirming the approximate depth of the deposit, Li Yi began to walk around, he wanted to confirm the approximate range.
Half an hour later, he returned to the same place, the area of this deposit is huge, at least more than 5,000 square meters! However, within the range of 5,000 square meters, the content of the mineral deposit is not quite the same, the higher the content is higher in the center, the content is not only reduced at the edge, but the depth is not so deep, and the shallowest place is more than 10 meters and the spar cannot be seen.
Li Yi stood still and pondered for a while, and finally gave up the estimate. Because this kind of mineral deposit is different from the Hetian jade mine he saw in the morning, the single gemstone particles are relatively small and the scope is relatively wide, and he has never learned the relevant knowledge at all, so he has no way to estimate the reserves.
However, although there is no way to estimate, he feels that this mine should still have some mining value.
Because regardless of the reserves, it is first and foremost an open-pit mine, and such deposits are best exploited. Moreover, in terms of traffic conditions, it is not very far from Hongge's mine, although all the way is a hillside, but the relative slope is relatively gentle, if you build a simple road, the investment should not be very large.
It's just that it is not far from Brother Hong's mine, so most of the prospecting rights and mining rights are still in Brother Hong's hands, which is still a relatively difficult problem to deal with.
"Let's go, let's go back."
Li Yi stood in place and glanced around again, turned around and walked towards the way he came, he already had a case in his heart, but how to do it had to be carefully considered.
When they returned to the starting point, it was already dark, and Brother Hong and the others had already withdrawn first because they still had instruments, leaving only Wang Yiteng still waiting for them.
"Where did you go? I ran to the hill over there and didn't see you. ”
"Hehe, this time it's a long walk, almost 10 kilometers, right? Brother Wang, have you found the vein? ”
Li Yi asked as he kept an eye on the flat hillside, if they found the vein, it would definitely leave traces on the ground, but there was no sign of turning in the vicinity, which meant that they probably hadn't begun to suspect the slope yet.
Sure enough, Wang Yiteng's words verified his opinion,
"No, Academician Zhu suspects that the ore veins have been transferred, or there are no ore veins at all, and the rough stones in the ravine are also mine caves on our side, which were moved to that place because of earthquakes or because of crustal movements, and he is going to go back to compare the composition of the two, and by the way, study the soil samples in the ravine, and calculate the approximate age......
"So complicated?"
"Alas, how can you hide their incompetence without complicating it? Behold, this time it's hanging! To tell you the truth, brother, within five kilometers around here, we don't know how many times we've pulled the net to investigate, I thought the academician might be a little more powerful, but I didn't expect ......"
"It's okay, since it is determined that it is in the metallogenic belt, then there must be a mine, and if you look for it more, maybe you will find it?"
"If only it were as easy as you say! By the way, brother, have you ever gambled on mining before? ”
Li Yi shook his head.
"That'...... Do you have a jade mine in your hands? ”
Li Yi shook his head again.
Wang Yiteng couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Li Yi shaking his head again and again, and then smiled bitterly. Yes, it is Brother Hong's guess to say that Li Yi has a mine and can gamble on mines, but after looking at his performance today, he should be able to know that he probably doesn't even know what a gambling mine is!
"Let's go, let's go back, have a day off tomorrow, and wait for Academician Zhu and their comparison results to come out."
When the three of them returned to the station, Academician Zhu and the others had already finished eating and entered the laboratory, and Wang Yiteng accompanied Li Yi and them to eat a little, and they also rushed into the laboratory in a hurry.
Li Yi deeply understands this, but he is still not ready to tell what he has discovered, he can do it without taking the initiative to steal, he is already benevolent and righteous, as for giving away that huge benefit, he is not a saint, and these people are not his friends of life and death, why?
"Li Yi, how is it? Did you find a mine? ”
As soon as he returned to the room, Zheng Shusen's phone called.
"How can it be so easy, how many people have looked for it."
"Hehe, if you really can't do it, you can come back, there are still a lot of things here, what are you fooling with them? By the way, guess what is the turnover today? ”
As soon as he heard the tone of this product, Li Yi knew that it must have sold a lot, and he couldn't help but be a little confused.
"What? Are you developing new customers again? ”
"Alas, new customers are indeed new customers, but they are not developed by us, they are all coming to you!"
"Looking for me? Who's looking for me? ”
"Wait, I'll take a look. Huang Qihang, bought a white jade bracelet, a white jade pendant, with a turnover of 3.72 million, Li Maowen, bought a glass bracelet, two glass rings, a turnover of 21.5 million, and ......"
Li Yi was stunned, Huang Sanshao, Li Maowen? How could it be them? (To be continued.) )
