Chapter 623 Opening the Mountain and Shooting Cannons

One day in late May, a number of senior executives of Dexin Mining, including Liu Mo'ang, stood on a hill a few kilometers away from the core area of ​​the No. 1 mining area, looking out at the direction of the mining area.

"Old Lu, is there no problem firing now?" Liu Mo'ang asked with some concern.

Lu Zecheng smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I've tried it five or six times before, and it's fine. We even fired a cannon under the snow line of a snow mountain last month. Although it caused an avalanche, it was extremely small and would not cause any impact on the lower part."

Yu Fei, who was standing beside him, also smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, Mr. Lu has been on the plateau for so many years and is very experienced in this regard."

Liu Mo'ang nodded, then looked at the laptop screen next to the technician who was fiddling with the remote control. The scene was exactly the location of the fire.

Now a drone is hovering over the place where the firecrackers are fired in the mining area. The situation displayed on the laptop screen is exactly what the drone photographed and transmitted back in real time.

There are great differences between mining on the plateau and mining below, especially in the areas where the mountain is opened and fired.

Mining is inseparable from opening the mountain and firing firecrackers. It means using a medicine to explode the mountain or rock formation and then dig.

Below, just drive away irrelevant personnel to ensure that there are no personnel within the blast. However, when setting off firecrackers on the plateau, not only should the above requirements be met, but also the conditions of the surrounding snow-capped mountains should be paid attention to.

Even if you speak under the snow-capped mountains, you have to make a little less noise, for fear that the loud noise will cause an avalanche, let alone the earth-shaking loud noises that open the mountain and set off firecrackers.

When Malang went to Japan to rescue Zhong Boss Zhong Zhe, he had seen the power of the avalanche with his own eyes.

Although the avalanche was still far from them and the direction of the avalanche did not come towards them, the earth-shaking power still scared Lao Liu to the point of trembling.

The destructive power of large-scale avalanches is quite powerful, so when mining on the plateau, as long as there are snow-capped mountains around, you will pay great attention to this. Otherwise, once a large-scale avalanche occurs, the consequences are not as good as mudslides or landslides or mountain collapses, but the consequences are also extremely serious.

Seeing that the boss was still a little worried, Lu Zecheng smiled and comforted: "Mr. Liu, when he first surveyed these three mining areas, Lao Yu and the others had noticed this issue. In fact, the location of our three mining areas is quite good. If we go about ten kilometers east, the mine will not be able to be mined.

Take the No. 1 mining area for example. The mining area is 4,800 altitude, which is far from the height of the snow line. Although there are many mountains around, most of these hills are not high, and the relative height of the mining area exceeds 200 meters. Moreover, the slopes of these hills are very small, and even if there is snow in winter, it is difficult to cause avalanche. The most important thing is that unless there are several heavy snowfalls here in a short period of time, the snow thickness on the hills will be far from reaching the avalanche."

Yu Fei added: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Lu is right. At the beginning of the survey, we first determined the surrounding snowy mountains. The altitude here is relatively low and the snow line is high. Moreover, the mountain slope is gentle and the wind is particularly strong in winter. Even if it snows heavily, part of the snow on the top of the mountain will often be blown away by the strong wind. In addition, the winter here is very dry and the viscosity of the snow is not enough, so it is difficult to form a snow thickness that can cause large-scale avalanches. At the end of last month, we chose the snowy mountain here when the snow was most loose in the year and fired a cannon. As a result, the snow that fell down could not even rush to the foot of the mountain, and the amount was very small, which was not enough to cause any danger."

Liu Mo'ang nodded and said, "I understand what you said, but be careful, and you must not relax your vigilance because the snow is not thick enough. You should all know that I have another profession, which is a member of the Blue Sky Rescue Team of Sunshine City. The second rescue mission I performed after joining Blue Sky was the Jialagou Mine Crack. You should have all heard of that tragic mine accident, but it was actually caused by negligence in the mine.

Although this geological disaster is very sudden, it is not without warning signs. Just like the Jialagou Mine Crack, if the mine is a little cautious and evacuated the workers and equipment in the mining area when it rains heavily, then the mine Crack would not have killed so many innocent workers!

Therefore, disasters often occur when we neglect them!”

Everyone around him nodded seriously.

The technician looked at the leaders around him and whispered: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Lu, everything is ready, can it be detonated?"

Liu Mo'ang looked at Lu Zecheng, and Lu Zecheng nodded and confirmed again that there were no people near the detonation site, then the detonation order was issued.

Because it was the first time that the mountain was officially launched, the amount of medicine was placed this time. One was to get a good start, and the other was to do the last avalanche test.

Because in addition to this firecracker, the amount of medicine placed after the firecracker is much lower than this time. As long as the firecracker is not caused by the first firecracker, there will basically be no accidents when the firecracker is set later.

Lu Zecheng wanted Liu Mo'ang to press the detonation button, but Old Liu smiled and declined.

Although he is the boss, he should let professionals do this kind of work.

As Luzhe layer pressed the detonation button, everyone waited for about ten seconds before a rumbling sound came down the river valley.

The voice was a little dull and not very loud, which disappointed Liu Mo'ang a little.

However, judging from the picture sent back by the drone, the effect of officially launching the mountain and setting off firecrackers this time is still very good.

Before the sound could be heard, the technicians had already controlled the drone to rotate around them and took a 360-degree rotation shooting. As a result, the remaining snow on the higher hills did not move at all.

In fact, by the end of May, the snow on the hillside was even less than half a meter thick, and it only covered the small hillside, and the snow on the hillside had already melted.

Even the snow on the hill will probably melt completely in a few days.

Under such circumstances, it is obviously impossible to cause an avalanche, so everyone cheered excitedly.

They have reason to cheer!

They have been busy for nearly two years for this mining area. From the initial survey to the official launch of the mountain and firecrackers, hundreds of people have been busy for nearly two years, and the boss has also invested up to hundreds of millions of dollars.

Now, with this loud noise, this ore vein containing rich precious metals has officially entered the mining stage!

The successful firing of mine area No. 1 represents the formal mining of mine area No. 1.

The same work will be staged again in the No. 2 mining area in two days. The conditions in the No. 2 mining area are better than those in the No. 1 mining area, because the hills around the No. 2 mining area are smoother, and even firecrackers will not cause an avalanche.

As for the No. 3 mining area, because it is a jade ore, you can do directional blasting without using a medicine, try not to use it, because although a medicine can mine jade faster and more conveniently, it will also cause cracks inside the jade when the medicine explodes.

But no matter what, after nearly two years of busyness and huge investment, these three mining areas finally entered the stage of formal mining!
Chapter completed!
