Chapter 550: Extraction
There are various scenarios for the formation of associated minerals, the most common of which is the movement of energy elements in minerals.
Elements are not static, and most of all the elements known to the world are active and change over time, temperature, climate, and even the thinning of the air. This change is subtle and continuous.
It will continue to move towards the surrounding matter, turning the surrounding matter into a substance similar to itself. This kind of time can take tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years. After the gestation of time, the known ore is finally formed.
To put it another way, the so-called associated minerals are actually minerals. It's just that minerals haven't been formed for human use, and they're minerals themselves.
The same is true for rare earth associated minerals, which have some accidents in the formation process and eventually do not become rare earth ores, but become associated ores, they are equivalent to unripe fruits, and they are still very green and astringent, and the taste is not so delicious.
However, everything is mysterious but interesting, not all minerals follow the rules of associated minerals and minerals themselves, there are some hidden things that follow another principle, they affect each other but oppose each other.
Rare earth ore and Ning element ore is one of the cases, between the two elements are changing each other, and in the middle of the place, the field that human beings have not yet explored, there are still the purest things between the two, and those are the most essence and the most precious place of the two minerals.
After decades of development, human research on rare earths has matured, although there are still some hidden secrets that have not been solved. However, rare earth substances do not have such a big mystery for human beings. Humans can use rare earth elements at will. Separate all the elements from it.
Ning element ore is different, it is a kind of shabby from the outside, it contains few useful elements in itself, and the extraction difficulty is high, which cannot be compared with rare earth ore. After a little identification, the humans tossed the Ning Elemental Ore aside.
It is normal that since human beings have more convenient and more stocks of rare earth ores to use, why should they spend more money to study worthless associated ores? Even labs with deep pockets are reluctant to spend large sums of money on associated mines. Anyway, rare earth ore is enough.
From this aspect, human beings' understanding of everything in the world is indeed limited, and many secrets, essences, things are not known at all. Even if it is brought to us, we will abandon it as if it were to be done.
It's interesting that in order to alert ourselves, we deliberately asked the people who bought the pearls to remind themselves. However, in real life, we are not the fools who buy the pearls.
The cost of ignorance is enormous, and it is not only wasteful, but also delays social change and the progress of the times.
It's like the Ning element. If the Ning element had been discovered ten years earlier, modern society would have been very different. Even if it can't be seen in the real world. It will also increase the scientific reserves between countries.
"Even if you already know about Ning Element's introduction, you still feel incredible when you hear it now!"
The more knowledgeable people are, the more stubborn they are, not because of their personality, but because of what they have learned. They have formed an inherent knowledge system, and they will always be a little skeptical about things outside the knowledge system.
Lu Weifeng's knowledge reserve is that associated minerals are secondary minerals and are affected by the minerals themselves. Now Wang Ning told him that Ning Element would affect rare earth ores, and that rare earth ores were associated with Ning Element ores, and he was indeed a little suspicious.
Wang Ning smiled slightly: "Actually, I am also wondering about the relationship between the two, so I came to Senior Brother today, and I want to use the equipment here to verify it!" ”
Don't reason with stubborn people, it's useless to reason with them. The only evidence that can leave the other party speechless is the facts, and throwing the final result in front of them, even if they are not convinced, they will definitely not continue to quibble.
Wang Ning knows the temper of scientists, and he has never been willing to debate with scientists, which is meaningless.
Scientists are a group of self-centered guys, especially in academics, everyone has their own theories and insistences, some insist on the same general direction, and some theories are completely different from the general direction. There are even theories that diverge from each other and end up with similar conclusions.
This is the uncertainty of science, it can only be said that the field of science is too big, everyone is studying a certain angle of science, and that angle cannot explain that it is wrong. No matter how bizarre the other side's theories sound, they can't prove the other side wrong.
People's understanding of the natural realm is still too shallow, there are too many secrets that are unknown, and who can prove themselves wrong? There is simply no one standard answer. So sometimes when Wang Ning sees scientists arguing with each other, he finds it quite funny.
The two of them are arguing about the right people, and both of them are stubborn people, and they definitely break up in the end. If you get a little excited, it's quite possible to throw a fist.
"It just so happens that I have prepared all the things you asked to prepare, and you can also use the equipment in the laboratory. If you can get the final answer, be sure to tell me about it! Lu Weifeng said, he prepared some things, all of which Wang Ning could use.
In fact, it can't be regarded as preparation, as a rare earth research institute, there are many things about rare earths in the research institute, from ores to associated ores, to surrounding materials, to the extraction of elements. The things that Wang Ning needed were also stored inside the research institute, and he only needed to use them a little without attracting much attention.
This is not one of the reasons why Wang Ning came to the Four Seasons Rare Earth Research Institute, he needs to release smoke bombs to the outside world, and he needs to achieve his goals under the cover of smoke bombs, and finally lay all the preparations before the opening of the rare earth plan.
"Then thank you, senior brother, if you don't mind, you can also help on the side!" Wang Ning nodded to Wang Tian beside him, and said with a smile to Lu Weifeng.
"Me?" Lu Weifeng was obviously surprised, and then asked in surprise: "Can I stay?" ”
Experiments are every scientist's biggest secret, and many things cannot be revealed, especially those that belong to the classified level, and no one else has the right to know the content of the experiment except for the participants of the experiment. Not to mention being involved in the experiment, once you get involved, it represents all kinds of trouble.
Lu Weifeng was ready to leave, but he didn't expect to receive an invitation from Wang Ning. (To be continued.) )
