Chapter Sixty-Four: The Veins in Your Hands

It's going to be a war, but Jiang Yin, who is sitting on the pillars of the vertical arch hall, doesn't care.

Fight? Jiang Yin is not afraid of war now, on the contrary, he is also very much looking forward to Zhao Guangyi coming to the royal expedition soon.

The vein investigation team brought from modern times has identified the location of nearly 10 large gold, silver and copper mines in Indonesia, North America, Russia and other regions, and these veins are famous super deposits in later generations.

For example, the Glasberg gold mine in Indonesia, known as the world's largest gold mine, has gold reserves of about 3,451 tons, and there is also a huge copper mine attached to the gold mine.

There is also the Peber Gold Mine in the United States, located in Alaska, one of the world's most famous copper mining areas, with reserves of about 2,792 tons of gold and copper.

There is also Russia's Sukhoilog gold mine, located in the Irkutsk Oblast of Siberia, Russia, it is a rare gold-silver symbiotic deposit, with reserves of about 1920 tons, after the official assessment of its gold reserves reached 1920 tons, the annual gold production is expected to be between 42~56 tons, and the silver production will be between 560 tons and 700 tons.

The vein investigation team brought by Jiang Yin discovered and located these large veins one by one within a few days.

Jiang Yin also went to these veins for a field investigation, and the results of the investigation made him, a person with nearly 10 billion assets, a little itchy.

There is no other reason, but because the gold and silver reserves in these places are really too much, due to the perennial geological movements, and in some sparsely populated areas, the initial land of these veins is still a primitive era, gold and silver everywhere, just walk a few steps on the ground, you can see small gold and silver nuggets.

That feeling, it's like planting crops without hard work, but in the end there is a bumper harvest, I heard that the people of the investigation team that detected these veins are going crazy after they are determined, this is a new world, everything is for the new continent that has been developed, and those mineral deposits will be owned by Jiang Yin alone....

In modern times, the diamond business of Tianchen Group is becoming more and more difficult to do.

With the gradual expansion of the mining scale of the Kimberley diamond mine in South Africa, Jiang Yin's large quantities of high-purity diamonds sent to the modern society have attracted the attention of the government.

However, although the government can't do anything, those diamond companies can't bear the fact that Tianchen Diamond Group has been selling diamonds in large quantities like bulk goods.

You know, diamonds, in the final analysis, belong to the luxury industry, and each one needs to be carefully carved and made into a work of art before it can be sold.

And this thing is mainly the Western idea of engagement, so that there can be a market.

Although De Beers is the world's largest diamond company and controls 60% of the world's diamond volume, in recent years, the diamond business has been sluggish, and De Beers' working capital is not very large.

At the beginning of the cooperation with Tianchen Diamond Company, the people of De Beers Company were very happy, after all, the quality and particle size of the diamonds provided by Tianchen are relatively high, and in modern times, diamonds of this scale can be mined on the surface There are very few, and De Beers Company did not pay special attention to the transaction of more than one billion dollars in the early stage.

But very much, the output of Tianchen diamonds shocked the people of De Beers, a steady stream of rough diamonds are traded regularly, and now a transaction volume is about a billion US dollars, you know, this is a monthly transaction, a billion US dollars of expenditure, in the world any company can not bear.

Tianchen Diamond, on the other hand, made almost $5 billion from selling diamonds alone.

De Beers began to make adjustments, first to lower the purchase price of rough diamonds, and then to reduce the purchase volume, but Tianchen Diamonds still produced a huge amount, and they began to seek other diamond partners.

Gradually, all the suppliers knew that Tianchen Group was terrible, it must have discovered a new diamond vein and was secretly mining, so the Rothschild family also sent a representative to buy the vein of Tianchen Diamond Mining in the name of De Beers, but Zhu Shancai refused.

Later, the two sides negotiated several times, but Tianchen Diamond Company verbally refused, and announced that it would sell diamonds to the outside world, but would never sell the veins.

But those diamond merchants are not stupid, now the diamond industry is at a low ebb, and they don't want to exchange a large amount of working capital for diamond rough storage, so they all reduce the purchase of rough diamonds, which directly leads to the diamond business of Tianchen Group is becoming more and more difficult to do....

......

In contrast to the low ebb of the diamond business, the booming market for gold and silver stands in stark contrast.

In a sense, diamond is just coal that has been subjected to high temperature and high pressure, causing its molecular structure to change, thus forming diamond.

But gold is different, it is not only the most valuable currency, but also is being used more and more widely in modern science and technology.

On November 12, 1981, the "Columbia" space shuttle launched in the United States used more than 40kg of gold to manufacture various parts, because gold has good ductility and corrosion resistance, excellent conductivity and diamagnetism, special optical properties and self-lubricating ability, etc., making it an ideal material for a variety of purposes.

One or two pieces of gold can be drawn into a 140km long gold thread, which is needed for micro lines. In addition, a piece of pure gold the size of a mung bean can even be rolled into gold leaf with an area of 0.6m^2, and it has the strange property of reflecting infrared rays and only allowing visible light to pass through, which is really suitable for making masks for firefighters.

In addition, attaching gold film to the glass can effectively regulate the indoor temperature. If the buildings covered with gold film are erected one after another, it will really make people feel as if they have entered a "golden world" with golden brilliance and spring all year round.

There are hundreds of such gold-conditioned office buildings in the world today.

A considerable part of the gold produced worldwide is used in the industrial sector, from the plating of printed circuits and integrated circuits, to the contacts of electronic equipment, from the rolling and sliding elements in aerospace instruments, to the thermal insulation of the gaps in the magnetic heads of television and tape recorders.

Gold is needed in industry, and gold is needed by the people. Jewelry and ornaments made of gold are still very popular, and gold is also a symbol of wealth and status in all countries and ethnic groups.

Therefore, the market for gold in the world is much wider than that of diamonds.

Jiang Yin mined thousands of catties of gold from Melbourne, Australia and put it into the international gold market, and he couldn't even fight before it was swallowed.....
