Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 33 New Discovery
Chen Ruobai was carefully observing the direction of the river, and was doing some analysis based on his shallow knowledge of geology.

"There is a bend in the river ahead." Lesner's voice came from the intercom, "Go forward, and you will be in the woods ahead."

After hearing this reminder, Chen Ruobai naturally didn't delay any longer.Just go straight to the destination. If you do more research, you will have the possibility to gain more, and if you are not sure, you will be able to earn more money.

Go straight to the river bend, because in Chen Ruobai's knowledge, the probability of gold there is obviously higher.

But nature's ingenious workmanship, or some things, are so mysterious, and many things are slightly out of the ordinary.

Chen Ruobai is now busy rushing towards the river bend, although he has not missed some river bends these days.Even if they fail again and again, there is no problem, maybe it will be another village, no one can guarantee these things.

With the intention of discovering something, but also being mentally prepared to find nothing, this is the state of looking for gold mines.

Originally, he approached like some routine, but Chen Ruobai stopped suddenly, and he discovered an unusual scene.

Under normal circumstances, the relatively straight river course is unlikely to have gold left behind.The main reason is that the water is so fast that gold cannot sink.But maybe there are special times, such as encountering some water pools.

This may be the case in front of me. This part of the river was relatively turbulent, and there was a small dam upstream.But because of the drop, a small puddle formed below.

The golden light is shining, even if this is a pool of about [-] square meters, the golden light seems to be relatively weak, but it is worth mining!
This is the area with water. If the dry river is dug open, the area may be expanded.What's more, in mining, it is often necessary to dig three feet into the ground, so that the ore can be found.

Chen Ruobai acted immediately, grabbed the walkie-talkie, "Ruen, come here quickly, I might have discovered something."

Lesnar's response came immediately, "I'll be right there, I'll be right there!"

Chen Ruobai didn't say much yet, Da Zhuang had jumped into the pool all of a sudden, enjoying the fun of dog digging happily.

Chen Ruobai didn't care about Da Zhuang either, he was just carefully observing the pool.

It seems that the deepest part may be two or three meters, and the bottom of the clear pool is full of fine river rocks.According to Chen Ruobai's estimate, these river stones are ore sand, the kind that can be directly washed for gold.

Lesnar came in a hurry, and was a little surprised to see the water pool in front of him.Because judging by the normal situation, it is unlikely that there is too much gold here, and it is not worth digging vigorously.

Such a pool is not uncommon in natural rivers.Speaking of which, I have seen it before, but I have not decided to mine.

With some doubts in his heart, Lesnar also asked, "Robert, do you think there will be gold here?"

"Well, there must be gold here." Chen Ruobai pointed to the dam above, and said, "This is a natural dam, which will allow gold to stay here. I just can't guarantee the scope of the mine now, and I can't guarantee the reserves here .”

Leisner said, "If mining here, we must first cut off the river, and a dam must be built in advance. This should not be too difficult, and it can be completed in a day or two."

Chen Ruobai nodded slightly, but still reminded, "Now is the wet season. If we start work, we will be in a hurry. The spillway must be prepared in advance, otherwise we will definitely encounter big troubles, and I am worried that the Environmental Protection Bureau will in trouble."

"I will dig out the river channel, as long as the river bypasses our construction site." Lesnar didn't care, and said confidently, "If we really want to mine here, we will prepare the site in advance."

Chen Ruobai nodded, and immediately took off his shirt, "I'm going down to dig some ore and see what's going on here."

Lesnar didn't hesitate, and followed Chen Ruobai to the water pool, diving to collect some ore.After landing, the two immediately started laundering gold, and soon saw thin gold on the bottom of the gold suction plate.

Alluvial gold, these gold particles are very small, and it is also an out-and-out alluvial gold.But anyway, it's gold.

"If you want to wash the ore, the power of our ore washing machine should be turned down, or the gold will be washed away." After carefully collecting the gold, Leisner joked, "But I still think the value of mining is not very high. Reserves don't look high."

Chen Ruobai said, "What about the bottom of the pool? We just collected the surface layer of ore, and this pool is worth digging. I'm willing to take a gamble, I bet there will be more gold at the bottom of the pool. And we can expand the area and completely clean up this pool." Dig up."

Lesnar was also moved when he heard it. This seems to be a good choice, and it seems to be worth the risk of taking a gamble.

At this time, Chen Ruobai also asked the key question, "What is the condition of the mine owner?"

"I don't think he will accept the buyout, he will choose to share." Lesnar said, "Maybe he will take [-]% of the harvest."

There is no other way, this is someone else's mine, and the only option to mine here is to pay a sum of money.Either a buyout or share.It's just that many mine owners choose to share. It seems risky to gamble, but the benefits are greater.

It doesn't matter if they can't agree, the land is theirs, and the gold is buried in their land, and there will be a chance to dig it out.

At this time, Chen Ruobai continued to ask, "What about the Mining Bureau? Do I have to pay a sum of money?"

It is unavoidable for mine owners to open mines on their own land, and they also have to pay a 12.00% share.

Leissner said, "Of course, but the mine owner means that the two parties can share equally. I think this is a normal market, and if we choose to mine here, he will come to collect gold regularly."

The mine owner is like this. It seems that he is dividing part of the mining rights of his own land, but he will always keep an eye on the construction progress.If you are not satisfied, you can also choose to terminate the cooperation.

Chen Ruobai said angrily, "The owner of the mine will take [-]% of the profit, and I will give [-]% to the Mining Bureau. Adding in the share from you and Javier, and the cost of the mining process, I can only get here at most. [-]% of the income."

"It's more than [-]%, maybe it can reach [-]%." Lesnar joked, "As long as there is enough gold here, you can make a lot of money. This is the market, you understand."

Chen Ruobai was indeed not very happy, because it seemed that a lot of money had to be distributed, and his own interests were affected.

But there is no way, this is a mine with an owner.If you want to mine here, you must spend a sum of money.Even if you can find gold by yourself, you can only envy them on other people's land. Could it be possible to secretly come to mine?

Chen Ruobai thought for a while and said, "Ask out the mine owner for me, and I'm going to have a talk with him. If we can reduce the share, this place is really worth digging for us."

In fact, it seems that mining here is not very difficult. If the battle is resolved quickly, there is still a chance to make a small profit.

Chen Ruobai did not require every mine to be able to dig out [-] or [-] ounces. In some places, [-] or [-] ounces is also very good.It mainly depends on the difficulty and efficiency of construction. If it is solved quickly, then the benefits can be guaranteed.

This is an area where the roads are more convenient and the site is relatively flat. This is also a mine with a foundation after all.When mining in such a place, Chen Ruobai doesn't need to worry about material issues at all, and he doesn't even need to worry too much about electricity consumption.

These things are what gold diggers need to face. Before buying a mine, Chen Ruobai can only spend money to buy mining rights.Whether it is bought from the hands of the mine owner or from the government department, it will cost money.

There is nothing to be unbalanced in your heart, let's talk now, and only after the talk is completed can we continue to consider the next work.

Things like making money cannot be delayed, and things like mining need to be paid close attention to. There is still a lot of work to be done, so there is no delay at all.
