Whether it is Wang Bin, Qin Lao and everyone present are very clear about these elements that have not been discovered on Earth, they naturally hope to mine them immediately.

However, both Wang Bin himself and others present know that it is not easy to mine these resources that have not been discovered on the earth.

First of all, the location of these mineral resources is Mars. Although human civilization now has a certain ability to land on Mars, this is only limited to a small scale. If we want to land on Mars on a large scale, the current capabilities of human civilization are still somewhat insufficient.

Because although human civilization now has the ability to manufacture space warships with tonnage of tens of thousands of tons, as well as space fighters and space shuttles, these spacecraft can all land on Mars. However, among these spacecraft, only space fighters truly have the ability to take off and land.

After all, the tonnage of a spacecraft is too large, and the weight of the airship alone can reach tens of thousands of tons. If various equipment are added, the weight of the spacecraft can even reach tens of thousands of tons. Such a weight is impossible even for taking off and landing on the moon, let alone, Mars, which is larger than the moon, in terms of gravity.

As for aerospace planes, except for Phoenix 1, which is completed and can land at that time, other aerospace planes do not have the ability to take off and land, because other models of aerospace planes must use standard runways for takeoff and landing.

After all, Mars' gravity is two-fifths that of the Earth. In addition, Mars also has an atmosphere on it, so the runway must be used to make a larger space plane, and takeoff and land with the help of Martian air.

Therefore, if you want to mine these minerals on Mars on a large scale, you must first establish a standard aircraft take-off and landing runway on Mars.

In addition, it is fine if one or two small-scale aircraft landed on Mars. If maintenance is done before, the chances of accidents are not high. However, once large-scale mining is carried out, it must be like the moon, and the ability to repair and maintain space planes must be necessary.

In addition, there are also living, accommodation and rest for mining personnel, which are also a huge problem, so they must build a huge survival base on Mars.

According to Wang Bin and others' estimates, this survival base must be able to meet the production and living capacity of at least 100,000 people, and such a base construction is definitely a huge project.

In addition, there are difficulties in mining. You should know that the place where these minerals are located is more than 700 meters below the ice layer!

The most important thing is that the hardness of the ice layer on this underground lake is very high. Even ordinary ice layers have a hardness that exceeds the hardness of steel, so it is also very difficult to mine.

According to Wang Bin and others' estimates, if humans want to achieve large-scale mining on Mars, these minerals will not be able to be realized until at least ten years later.

However, Wang Bin, Mr. Qin and others are a little depressed about this, but small-scale mining will not cause them to be difficult. After all, even if these minerals are mined at that time, they will definitely not be able to be used on a large scale like other commonly used minerals.

Because Wang Bin, Mr. Qin and others are very clear that these minerals are absolutely uncommon even in the universe, the method used is definitely like the scarce strategic elements on the earth, and they are used in small quantities. What's more, Wang Bin and others are still confused about the specific use of these minerals. They must first conduct further analysis of these minerals and conduct a series of experiments.

So even small-scale mining is temporarily enough for the current human civilization.

As for Mars, Wang Bin gave them the order to determine the amount of these minerals here first. If it is only a little bit, then there is no need to mobilize such a large-scale mining base here. If these minerals have a lot of reserves here, then it is necessary to establish a large-scale mining base.

.........

With the order from the command center, Peng Ming and others who were far away on Mars immediately began to explore the reserves of these minerals here. At the same time, after so long construction of the simple runway on Mars, the initial construction has been completed, and the take-off and landing of the Phoenix-type aerospace plane has been initially achieved.

At the same time, in the following week, Peng Ming and others, with the help of the Dijiang spacecraft and the Earth Command Center, also initially discovered the reserves of these substances in this area. According to the data, the total reserves of these minerals here reached nearly three million tons.

The widest part of its ore veins reaches five kilometers, the longest part reaches ten kilometers, and the thickest part is five meters.

When Wang Bin and others saw the data of this preliminary exploration, they immediately smiled. After all, this reserve is already very amazing. You must know that many strategic scarce materials on the earth cannot reach such reserves.

After all, this is not the most common substance that is spread throughout the universe! It is a very rare substance in the entire universe!

Of course, in fact, Mr. Qin and others could not define these substances in more detail at this time. After all, Mr. Qin and others did not know how much the proportion of these substances in the universe. But one thing is that they are definitely more rare than those scarce strategic elements on the earth. Otherwise, these substances would not have been found on the entire earth.

At the same time, after exploring the reserves of these minerals here, Wang Bin and others did not order Mars to mine immediately, but asked Peng Ming and others to continue to build the Mars aerospace plane take-off and landing runway. At the same time, they also asked them to continue to drill deep into the ice layer above the underground lake in places other than these minerals.

After all, compared to the previous accidental discovery of these minerals, exploring whether there is really liquid water under the underground lake is their main mission to land on Mars. Discovering these minerals is just an unexpected surprise.

In addition, Wang Bin and his Earth Command Center also ordered the Dijiang spacecraft to immediately make more detailed improvements to other places on Mars, checking on Mars, in addition to this place, there are still such minerals in other places, and whether there are substances that have not been discovered in human civilization.
