God-level Miner

Chapter 1060 50 tons of rare earth

Such an attitude lightened Chen Yuehui's heart, Zheng Ming was also relieved, smiled a little, and said in his heart, Xudong is really good, he has a big picture.

Chen Yuehui also became serious, because what he wanted to talk about was not a personal matter, but a business matter, which represented the meaning and decision-making of the top management.

"Xudong, I heard that you have discovered a large amount of rare earth resources in Australia, and signed a series of agreements and documents with Australia?"

It's not a secret, Chen Yuehui knew it, and when he asked this again, he just wanted to further confirm the specific situation. Wang Xudong fully understood this, and he didn't hide it, he nodded.

"Yes, there is such a thing. I am in one of my private territories in Australia. We were lucky and discovered a large amount of high-quality rare earth resources. The reserves are estimated to be tens of millions."

Tens of millions of tons!

Even though he had roughly known about the astonishing reserves before, Chen Yuehui was still slightly excited when he heard Wang Xudong say it himself.

Such reserves are really gratifying and exciting. China is a big country with rare earth resources, and the remaining mineable rare earth resources are estimated to be only tens of millions of tons. Wang Xudong's private territory has a reserve of rare earth resources. reached tens of millions of tons.

"Xudong, your luck is really a bit against the sky!"

Even Chen Yuehui can only attribute the discovery of such a huge amount of rare earth resources to Wang Xudong's luck. In fact, Wang Xudong used the "God-level big mine owner" system to gather all the rare earth resources within a radius of 1000 kilometers and a depth of 4500 meters. the result of.

Regardless of whether it meets the conditions for industrialized mining or not, they are all gathered together, and only then have the astonishing reserves of tens of millions of tons.

Wang Xudong also understood that when Chen Yuehui mentioned these rare earth resources to himself, what he said must be related to rare earths.

Sure enough, Chen Yuehui said: "Xudong, you also know that the total amount of rare earth resources in our country has become less and less after years of mining. According to the current mining volume, it will be fully mined in about twenty years. At that time, we will not be a country rich in rare earth resources, but a country poor in rare earth resources, and we will need to import rare earths from abroad instead.”

Rare earths are strategic resources, and the global reserves are limited. Those countries with rare earth resources must be reluctant to sell them. Even if you want to import them, you probably won't be able to buy them.

China can't do without rare earths. With such a huge industrial system, the demand for rare earths is indispensable in many places. Without rare earths, it will definitely be greatly affected.

Wang Xudong was well aware of this, and said sternly, "Minister Chen, keep talking, what do you want me to do?"

Chen Yuehui said: "The top management has formed a unified opinion. In order to preserve our limited rare earth resources, we began to limit the amount of mining and export in order to extend the mining life of our domestic rare earth resources."

This point is easy to understand. There are only so many rare earth resources, and if they are mined, they will be less. Only by controlling the amount of mining can they be mined for a longer period of time.

However, various domestic industries, especially the military industry and high-tech industries, have an increasing demand for rare earth resources, which is contradictory to restricting mining.

So, Chen Yuehui thought over and over again, and after reporting to the higher-ups for approval, he personally went to the door and found Wang Xudong.

"Xudong, what we mean is that you sell some rare earths to the country every year, um, 50 tons per year, is that okay?"

After speaking, he looked at Wang Xudong hopefully, waiting for Wang Xudong's answer.

50 tons is not a small amount, on the contrary, it is a large amount.Chen Yuehui was also a little apprehensive, afraid that Wang Xudong would refuse, or that he didn't have so many rare earths.

Zheng Ming also knew that 50 tons was not a small amount. He did not persuade Wang Xudong to agree, but Wang Xudong made the decision himself.

Wang Xudong pondered, and after thinking about it, he agreed, "Minister Chen, although 50 tons is not a lot, we will try our best to meet it."

Surprise!

Chen Yuehui seemed to be hit by a huge surprise, all the apprehension and worry in his heart were swept away, his whole body relaxed, and he let out a long breath of relief.

"Xudong, that's great. Your contribution is huge. You have made great contributions to our country and our future generations."

With the 50 tons of finished rare earth products sold by Xudong Mining Group every year, domestic production can be further restricted, and the limited rare earth resources can be left to our future generations as much as possible.

After agreeing to this matter, Wang Xudong also remembered that there are more than 5800 million tons of rare earth resources in his private territory. Even if 100 million tons are mined every year, it is enough to mine for decades, and the reserves are completely sufficient.

The key is the scale of mining and refining.Wang Xudong's original plan was to mine about 1 million tons of rare earth mines every year, and about 100 million tons of finished rare earths could be extracted.

Such a scale can be considered huge, but now it seems that it may not be enough. The Sanlian Special Steel Group will definitely need hundreds of thousands of tons of finished rare earths every year. Adding the 50 tons sold to the country, this will exceed 100 million tons.

Rare earths must be in high demand, and without even thinking about it, some countries will rush to the door after learning that Xudong Mining Group has mined a large amount of rare earths, and want to buy these rare earths.

In order to win over people's hearts, let Xudong Mining Group have a large number of followers and supporters, and bind these people together, Wang Xudong plans to sell some rare earth resources to the outside world every year, and sell them to companies or countries that have a good relationship with him.

The annual production capacity of 100 million tons of finished rare earths is not enough!
The ore mining capacity of this rare earth mine should be 2 million tons, or even more than 3 million tons, and it can roughly extract 2 to 300 million tons of finished rare earth ore.

The annual output of 2 to 300 million tons of finished rare earths can not only meet the needs of Sanlian Special Steel Group, but also meet domestic needs, and some of them can be exported.

Fortunately, the land is wide enough and vast enough. Even if the scale of construction is larger, there is still enough space. As for funds, there is no shortage of them.

Wang Xudong immediately agreed to 50 tons of rare earths, Chen Yuehui was completely happy, and chatted happily with Wang Xudong, and Zheng Ming chatted a few words from time to time.

The topic gradually became more and more widespread. As the Minister of Mines, he must be most concerned about mineral resources, not only limited to domestic situations, but also some foreign situations.

No, Chen Yuehui said: "Xudong, do you know what happened in country Y? I heard that several oil fields in their country have no oil at all. They have gathered a large number of experts to find out the reason, but until now they are at a loss. "

Zheng Ming obviously heard about this incident, and he was also a little puzzled: "This incident is really strange, how come there is no oil suddenly."

Wang Xudong snickered in his heart, all of this was done by Wang Xudong, who asked country Y to exploit oil in the disputed waters, and drove away all approaching ships, including himself.

They deserve it for not drilling for oil.

He was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.There is no oil in the whole country Y, not even a drop, and they still fantasize about finding the reason, which must be in vain, no matter how hard they try to figure it out.

The three chatted for a long time in the living room. Wu Yaping went downstairs and greeted warmly: "Old Chen, leave after eating. I'll prepare the meals."

Chen Yuehui hastily said: "Sister-in-law, there's no need, we've finished what we need to talk about, and I'm leaving too."

After finishing speaking, Chen Yuehui stood up, and Zheng Ming said, "Xudong, send off Minister Chen."

Wang Xudong sent Chen Yuehui to the gate of the villa, and when he got into the car, Chen Yuehui said: "Xudong, I'm waiting for your good news, and I also hope that you can mine rare earth as soon as possible."

Wang Xudong said loudly: "Minister Chen, there will be no problem. We will mine the first batch of rare earths soon."

In the mining of rare earth resources, Wang Xudong is relatively tight, and Li Wangdong, who is in charge of the construction of rare earth mines, has not neglected in the slightest. It will not take long for large-scale mining to start.

Of course, mining is not a problem, because open-pit mining is relatively simple, and the biggest project is the refining plant of rare earth resources.

Wang Xudong has already planned that the rare earth ore will be mined and sent to the refining factory not far from the mine for preliminary processing, so that the rare earth ore will become a semi-finished product, that is, a crude product.

That's it.

These semi-finished products can then be shipped domestically or sold to countries or companies that need them.Refined by themselves.

The semi-finished rare earths shipped to the country will also be sent to domestic refining plants, and finally the finished rare earths will be obtained.Because there is a complete refining system in China, and there are also ready-made refining plants.

After watching Chen Yuehui get in the car and leave, Wang Xudong called Li Wangdong and told him to pay close attention to the construction of the open-pit rare earth mine, and on the other hand, he told him to expand the scale to reach an annual mining scale of more than 3 million tons of rare earth mines. .

It is estimated that 3 million tons of rare earth mines are mined every year, which is enough.

After making these arrangements, Wang Xudong turned around and went back to the villa, while Wu Yaping and the nanny were already preparing meals, and the familiar smell of food wafted from the kitchen...

Wang Xudong was not in a hurry to return to Donghai City, but still stayed in the capital, and had nothing to do to go shopping with Zheng Xiaotong and visit some scenic spots near the capital.

Wang Xudong even thought in his heart, am I a little bit reluctant to leave.

Today, the two of them drove together with Wang Xudong to a new scenic spot on the Great Wall. It was an undeveloped section of the Great Wall, but it was highly praised by travel friends, and it was a new hot spot for self-driving tours.

Wang Xudong drove away from the villa, Zheng Xiaotong sat in the passenger seat, the two talked and laughed, and drove towards the outside of the city.

Zheng Xiaotong said happily: "Brother Dong, that section of the Great Wall is very beautiful, and the surrounding scenery is also beautiful, but the location is a little bit off."

Wang Xudong also said: "I really admire those donkey friends for finding such a good place. Let's go and have a look at the beautiful scenery there."

Both are in a good mood.

However, it didn't take long for Wang Xudong to feel that something was wrong, and his intuition told him that he was being followed.

The second one is delivered!
