If there is nothing wrong with mining on site, no one can say anything about it.
The emperor and ministers could only praise and not have any objections.
It is not difficult to gather a crowd of people, but the difficulty lies in whether there are enough food rations to feed them.
As long as there is enough food, it is not difficult to gather hundreds of thousands of people to start mining. As long as we control health issues and prevent epidemics. We must control public order and prevent certain thieves and instigators to cause trouble.
Yang Fan called his adjutant in to generate electricity for Shaanxi and asked them to get a truck of ore back first. He also told them the specific mine site. The engineers sent a battalion to follow them and were responsible for blasting and mining.
The Ordos Coal Mine also mobilized miners and technicians to bring excavators, bulldozers, steam drilling rigs, and loaders.
Yang Fan's system is very efficient once it is put into action.
Wang Ermazi, the commander of the engineering corps, received the order just after dark.
Crazy Wang immediately ordered the trumpet to be blown and everyone gathered urgently. He personally led the team and set off with a battalion of engineers and took a steam truck to Shangluo County to find the molybdenum mine that the master mentioned. Although he did not know what a molybdenum mine was.
However, a description of the sample and identification method were sent via telegram.
After reading Yang Fan's reply, the liar said to Chu Chen who looked expectant: "Fanzi asked you to wait for the news. In seven days, samples will be sent. He said that a foreign friend of his has a molybdenum mine and he can get some molybdenum.
The mineral powder comes out. He doesn’t know if it is associated with it. You can test it yourself and see. But there is still hope. Isn’t this stuff usually associated with molybdenum ores?”
Chu Chen didn't expect that there would be clues so easily. The admiration for Mr. Xiao Yang suddenly continued like a torrential river. Although he didn't know whether it was contained in it, the probability of it being associated with molybdenum mines was very high.
The steam truck, traveling at a speed of 45 kilometers per hour, carried the engineering battalion and arrived in Shangluo County in one day. The ore vein was easily found.
The engineers are extremely efficient in their work. This is an outcrop of mineral veins, which can be blasted directly on the mountain wall. Then tunnels are dug, holes are fired, and the mines are mined in depth.
Wang Er looked at these stones and compared them carefully with what was said in the telegram. He felt that they were basically the same.
"First select some coarse ore. The master said that it is the same as gold mining. It is smashed and made into powder with a granite roller. Then it is re-sorted with dustpan and water. Finally, it is magnetically separated with a magnetic rod. It is estimated that 20% of the ore can be obtained.
Taste." Wang Ermazi said.
The men immediately agreed and went to work.
The rumbling sound of gunpowder explosions alerted the Shangluo County Yamen. The county magistrate thought Wang Ziyong was calling and was frightened to death. He asked the county magistrate to personally bring people to see what was going on.
The county magistrate was scared to death, and after greeting the county grandpa and his ancestors in his heart, he bravely came.
When I came to take a look, I saw that it was the people from Dingyuanhou who came to mine. I didn't dare to let out a fart and went back in despair.
Wang Er divided the 500 people into three groups, one group of 300 people was responsible for blasting and mining ore, a group of 150 people was responsible for crushing and re-selection. There was also a group of 50 people responsible for magnetic separation.
Because there are very good explosives. These explosives made of sugar and chemical fertilizers are very easy to use. The tunnel was quickly dug from the mountain wall. The steam drilling rig arrived the next day and the speed was faster.
Seven days later, the first batch of ten tons of roughly selected molybdenum ore powder was packed in one hundred gasoline barrels and delivered to the closed dock in the Horn of Africa.
According to the grade of 20%, it is about four tons of molybdenum ore powder. Based on the accompanying ratio of 1/720, there should be 5.5 kilograms of rhenium metal content.
Chu Chen has been anxiously waiting for news these days. Monkey comforted him, it's useless for you to be anxious, just go fishing at sea. I will naturally notify you if there is news.
Chu Chen took three of his men on a small speedboat and had been fishing in the sea for the past few days.
One day, I suddenly felt my phone vibrating in my trouser pocket. I quickly picked it up and took a look, and I was immediately overjoyed.
Ten tons of molybdenum ore coarse ore powder have arrived.
He immediately shouted: "Put the boom away, brothers."
The speedboat started the four Mercury plug-ins on its butt and rushed back at lightning speed.
That night, the testing technical team flew to Lambeau Airport on a passenger plane and began testing ten tons of mineral powder. The country was also waiting for news.
This is the first progress to be made since the large-scale search for overseas resources was issued.
At midnight, the technical team's conclusion came out.
The news is exciting. The molybdenum ore powder from this mine is not only associated with it, but also of high grade.
The grade is very good, reaching about 0.139, which is quite advanced. These ore coarse powder can produce about 5.5 kilograms.
The news was immediately reported back home. I asked Mr. Yang how much we can provide, how much we need, and the price is negotiable. Where can we deliver the goods?
Chu Chen asked nervously: "Hurry up and contact Mr. Yang to see how good the coarse ore powder you can provide every month. In terms of price, we will calculate the price according to the highest grade. Where can we deliver the goods?"
Yang Fan's reply came quickly. It should be no less than 20 tons of coarse ore powder per month. The price will be based on molybdenum ore. Anything else you can propose is yours.
Just after the delivery in Lanbao, Yang Fan's people will purify the molybdenum ore powder. They will be responsible for getting the concentrate powder here.
Just send a cargo plane to take it away directly from China. There is not much of this stuff, each batch is a small batch. It only needs to be handed over once a month.
Chu Chen was immediately moved to tears and said thank you to Mr. Yang. This is more than 100 kilograms of goods a year.
The content of this stuff in the earth's crust is much less than gold. It's not even one-twentieth.
This thing is too valuable and cannot be bought with money.
Ten kilograms of pure mineral powder a month is more than a hundred kilograms a year. It can do a lot of things.
Yang Fan didn't pay much attention to it, he had no use for this thing.
The Shangluo mine has been open to mining, and it doesn't matter if it is wasted. Isn't there something else? By the time this mine is finished, it will be able to produce a total of 200 tons.
Just leave it to the Ordos Military Coal Mine. Just withdraw the engineers first and let them come and do it.
It doesn't cost anything to have one more small mine. It doesn't cost much to have one more mine.
Miners can be recruited from the refugees, as many as they want. The vein can be dug from seven or eight places at the same time, expanding the support surface and increasing the output.
It is more laborious to beneficiate and crush the ore. But isn't there a steam engine? Let Chen Xi and the others build a crusher driven by a steam engine. If they build a ball mill or the like, the ore powder will come out directly.
Gravity separation, magnetic separation, and electric separation are all performed. It is estimated that 50% of the concentrate powder will come out.
Chu Chen, the others, and the technical team took a hundred barrels of coarse ore powder and sat on Fat Girl to return home.
Seeing the fat girl flying into the air, Monkey, Liar, Sun Xing and the others were very moved.
They were very excited to have the opportunity to do something for China.
"With these cardiotonic drugs, I hope that in our post-20s generation, water molecules will thrive and protect our sky." Sun Xing said, looking at the back of the fat girl going away.
It wasn't until Fat Girl turned into a black dot that they could no longer see, then they got in the car and went back to Blue Castle.
Although it was already late at night, they were very happy to be able to do something for China.
Hearing the knock on the door and the monkey's voice, Qin Weiwei climbed up sleepily from the 18th-century royal bed, wearing bare feet and a suspender nightgown, and opened the door for the monkey.
"Why did you come back so late? I was so sleepy that I went to bed first." She covered her mouth with her little hand and yawned.
"I just sent Chu Chu and the others away. I just came back from the airport."
"What did he want to do with you? He spent the whole night in trouble." Qin Weiwei was on her wedding honeymoon, and she and Monkey were at odds with each other. She was deeply resentful of Chu Chen coming to disturb her.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask." Monkey glared at her and said.
"Humph!" Qin Weiwei rolled her eyes.
The monkey was so sleepy that he took off his clothes, got into bed, and fell asleep quickly.
Outside Xining City, a dense infantry formation appeared in the morning light.
The neat steps of the army raised up dust all over the sky in the early morning and shook the earth.
The Mongolian sentry rested his head on a pillow that was lying on the ground and listened. When he got up, he was shocked. He immediately mounted his horse and rushed towards the direction of the sound.
But Tuhan's eyelids twitched all night last night. He didn't know why he was so frightened that he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep peacefully.
This morning, at dawn, the bad news came.
Brother Harry rushed into his tent and shouted loudly: "The sweat is bad, we are surrounded."
Quetuhan was inspired and started doing it all at once.
The maid quickly put a Mongolian robe on him. His hands were trembling and he cursed: "You little brat, why are you shouting or panicking? The sky won't fall."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a cowhide drum was heard in the distance.
The rumbling sound seemed to vibrate the eardrums.
Needless to say, Quetu Khan also knew that this was a large drum mounted on a vehicle. It was a standard equipment for the large infantry units of the Han army. Two shirtless strong men stood on both sides of the carriage, beating huge drums, and followed different orders.
Different drum beats beat violently.
His face turned pale.
This is not an isolated city, there are a large number of infantry reinforcements outside the city.
