However, she didn't feel happy for long, Baozi's father's words made her wake up instantly.
"Don't be stupid. Once this becomes a mining area, you won't be able to open a ranch. Do you think the two can coexist?"
Mining will destroy the grassland ecology, and pasture needs ecological grassland. These two are contradictory.
"So, if it is discovered that there is a mine underneath, then the ranch will not be able to open if you want to mine?"
"Generally speaking, that's the case. But it depends on what kind of mine it is and whether its development value is high." Lu Chixiao said.
Although he focused on salvaging sunken ships a year ago, he also did a lot of work in this area.
"Inner Mongolia is an area rich in mineral resources. Almost all the minerals that have been proven in the country can be found in Inner Mongolia. If you pull out a piece of land and dig deep, you can find minerals. It is just a question of how many reserves there are."
Xu Suizhu: "..."
I suddenly felt so rich.
The land you step on not only supports cattle, but may also support mines!
But as Baozi Daddy said: If it is coal mines, rare earths, oil and gas, etc., there is really no need to exploit them if the reserves are small.
Bayan Obo has the largest rare earth deposits in the world;
The western part of Hulunbuir and the central and southern sections of the Greater Khingan Mountains are rich in nonferrous metal reserves;
The coal fields in Ordos cannot be fully mined in a short time;
There is no need to worry about oil. It is conservatively estimated that the submarine oil fields in the isolated island waters can be used by the Chinese people for 180 years. It is no longer feasible for some countries to use oil to control China.
If energy stone can replace oil and coal mines, there will be no need to worry.
Therefore, the country has currently slowed down the pace of mining. Unless scandium ore, cobalt ore, and energy stone are discovered, rare mineral veins that are extremely resistant to pressure and are indispensable materials for manufacturing deep-sea submarines, spaceships, etc., otherwise, like
Neither the northern grasslands nor the central mountains are planned to be extensively developed.
If we are afraid of destroying the ecological balance, leading to soil erosion, flying sand, and deterioration of the living environment, then what's the point of catching up with developed countries? It's not easy to get the blue sky and white clouds back again.
Therefore, in Hailar, the policy still favors ecological farming.
But it doesn't stop us from letting the reconnaissance beetle see if there are any mines under this grassland, and if so, what kind of mines they are. It's good to be aware of them.
A few minutes later, the reconnaissance beetle transmitted dynamic images of its progress.
What followed was a series of detected mineral compositions, which dazzled her.
"Do you see anything?"
She simply handed it over to Baozi Daddy.
Lu Chixiao took out a stack of mineral types and main constituent elements recorded during "doing homework" and compared them one by one.
The final conclusion is that there are indeed mines under this vast grassland, but the veins are small and incoherent, and they are basically coal mines.
After learning this result, Xu Suizhu didn't know whether she was disappointed or relieved.
There is no need to mine disconnected coal mines unless it is a last resort. Otherwise, all the efforts will be made to mine and mine. In the end, the harvest will be far less than the effort, and the environment will be worsened.
There were no mineral veins worth mining under the contracted ranch, so Xu Suizhu marked the area off the map. At the same time, he gave instructions to the reconnaissance beetles and exploration robots to continue exploring the surrounding areas.
Not to mention, there are so many mineral veins in Inner Mongolia.
The species are rich and widely distributed. Finally, a continuous chalcedony deposit was discovered in the Urad Prairie. The rich green color that symbolizes nature is refreshing and intoxicatingly beautiful.
"Is there a mine over there in Urad?"
"Maybe not."
"Let's open one!"
Lu Chixiao: "..."
Before setting off, who kept complaining that mining is boring? If the tasks given by the superiors had not been completed, who would not enjoy the spring time and come to the north to prospect?
It’s only been a few days and you’ve changed your mind?
Woman, your name is Fickle!
Xu Suizhu ignored Father Baozi's teasing. Just laugh, and you won't lose a piece of meat. It would be painful to give up such a large chalcedony deposit.
I would like to ask which woman can resist the temptation of agate, jade, pearls, jade and gemstones? If she can, that means the temptation is not enough!
"Okay! Mark it down first, then talk to Minister Qin later."
As long as it doesn't involve rare minerals that are in short supply in aerospace, the higher-ups will definitely make it easier for them.
If the reconnaissance beetle wasn't still working conscientiously underground, Teacher Xu would have really wanted to hug it and kiss it hard.
"A good start! I believe there will be greater gains in the future!"
On the first day of construction, an amazing chalcedony mine was discovered, and Xu Suizhu became more interested in the prospecting job.
In the next few days, the couple went out early and came back late. They seemed to be inspecting the newly invested ranch and other projects worth investing in. In fact, they had been prospecting.
Explore the territory during the day and explore the outside world at night.
Stealth aircraft are more convenient than submarines, making them the best partner for secretly leaving the country.
As more and more mineral points worth investing in were marked on the map, a week passed quietly.
"Scandium and cobalt mines have been discovered in several places, both at home and abroad. Maybe the source stone has never been discovered." Xu Suizhu stared at the dynamic image sent back by the reconnaissance beetle, feeling disappointed again, "The energy source in Morpheus country
Stone mine is the only place on earth?"
"We have only focused on the big mineral-producing countries before. Tonight, we will try to find countries at the same longitude and latitude as Sri Lanka, even small island countries that have never produced minerals before." Lu Chixiao turned the globe, thinking about any
A possibility.
Xu Suizhu nodded: "I hope there will be something harvested. If not, let's go back home first, lest the children break our promise and they won't believe us in the future. By the way, we can apply for the mining license for the chalcedony mine. With the mining license,
There is an excuse for going back and forth."
Lu Chixiao readily agreed.
Minister Qin did not let them stay here permanently. He only said that time was tight and they would try to complete it in the first half of the year, but it would not prevent them from returning home a few times in the middle.
Besides, even if they return home, they won’t stop detecting. Where can the reconnaissance beetles and exploration robots not be used? It’s just that it’s easier for the couple to move around on the vast grassland.
The couple was fully mentally prepared and even booked their flights home, but unexpectedly they found a huge surprise the night before their return trip.
It was not that rare minerals such as energy stones were detected, but that a huge underground palace was discovered, just under Chifeng, not far from the Qing Fuling Mausoleum discovered in the late 1980s.
But what is different from the Fuling Mausoleum of the Qing Dynasty is that this magnificent underground palace under Chifeng has no tombs, only stacks of boxes and cages, and countless gold and silver treasures, which may have been secretly dug up by emperors of various dynasties.
Xu Suizhu suddenly thought of the unofficial history. Could the dragon veins described in the novel really exist?
