Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 475 Continue to Persevere

Starting a new stage of prospecting, this is what Chen Ruobai should do now. He must figure out some things so that he can ensure everything is foolproof, so that he can put all the money he should earn into his pocket.

This is not a small matter, it may be an out-and-out major matter, which affects whether your wealth can continue to increase.

Judging from the current situation, he has indeed found some clues about gold mines, and it seems that he can indeed make a small fortune. But how can it be so easy to be satisfied, especially if it seems to have follow-up potential, then it deserves to be taken more seriously.

Henderson and Morgan also understood this truth and knew that this prospecting work was no small matter, and they were ready to work hard next.

It doesn't matter if this period of time will be harder, the worst thing is that it will be tiring during this period. After finishing the work here, there is nothing to say and it is completely acceptable to have a good rest.

When you should work hard, work hard, and when you can relax and rest, enjoy your vacation wholeheartedly. This is also good.

Morgan has some ideas of his own, and he is quite studious. "Robert, do we need to find the source of these mineral sands?"

Hearing Morgan's question, Chen Ruobai asked back, "It seems that you have your own understanding of this prospecting, so do you think I should do this?"

Morgan said with certainty, "Of course, I think you need to do this, and you must do this! We all know that the situation here is special. The ore sand layer is made of silt and river sand. I don't know how much gold there is here. , but I know that the source of gold here must be very special!”

Henderson also quickly said, "I support his point of view. When I was prospecting previously, I noticed that the ore sand layer here is very special, and it is different from the ore sand we found before."

Morgan couldn't help complaining, "Brother, you have just entered this industry, and you don't understand the characteristics of prospecting. Apart from knowing Fortune Creek, I don't think you know what other gold mines are like. Not to mention prospecting!”

Henderson wanted to say that he had found a small mine with Chen Ruobai before, but after thinking about it, he forgot it, because such a small mine seemed not worth mentioning, so Chen Ruobai sold it.

It would be ridiculous to brag about the discovery of such a small mine. Even though he has not been in this industry for a long time and has little experience, Henderson knows how good his team is and how demanding his team members are.

Working in such an excellent team is still a bit stressful, because everyone seems to have such high demands, and some small achievements, etc., seem not worth mentioning at all, which also means that sometimes the sense of accomplishment is not there. too strong.

Chen Ruobai exposed the old man and said, "You don't have more experience than him. In fact, you haven't found a gold mine before. So brother, don't think that your extra qualifications can be a reason to guide him!" "

Hearing what Chen Ruobai said, Henderson thought it made sense, and suddenly seemed to have some confidence. He felt that he was indeed no worse than Morgan.

Morgan was very unconvinced, and he had his own reasons, "Robert, although this is only my second season on the team. But I have been in Alaska for a long time, and I have worked in many gold mines. You can't deny that I have worked in other gold mines." The experience gained as a team is still important!”

It makes sense for Morgan to say this. He has not just entered the gold mining industry. Although he is not the best gold prospector, he has indeed accumulated a certain amount of experience. These are facts that cannot be denied.

Morgan also continued, "In my experience, most ore sand layers are consistent. Seeing changes in the ore sand layers basically means that the gold is gone and the mining of a gold mine is about to end. But here It’s different, the silt and river sand we dig out may be mineral sand!”

Hearing what Morgan said, Chen Ruobai also laughed, "The answer is correct, these are indeed the reasons for us to come back here again. We have to find the source of these silt and river sand, which may bring a big mine!"

There is really no need to hide this information, because it has reached this point, so naturally it is time to take it seriously.

It's definitely impossible to hide things. As long as you pay a little attention to propriety, say what you should say and don't say what you shouldn't, that's all.

Although he has more trust in Henderson and Morgan, Chen Ruobai sometimes feels dark in his heart. If this involves hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in business, some so-called trust and loyalty may not stand the test.

These are what he is saying, and these are the reasons why he is disclosing some information with reservations. The reality is such that it is very necessary not to idealize some things.

Everyone is very happy. Although this also means that the workload will definitely increase in the future, this is obviously not a bad thing. The main thing is that as long as some discoveries can be made, it means that everyone's income will be higher.

One by one, they left their homes and came to the wilderness of Alaska just to make more money.

After the joke, Henderson asked, "Robert, based on our previous prospecting, we can basically determine the scope of the mining area, right?"

Seeing Chen Ruobai nod, Henderson said, "My guess is that it was a debris flow or an earthquake. This is the reason why a large amount of river sand and soil was brought. As long as we find the upstream, as long as we find the fault zone and landslide zone, we will have Chance to achieve final victory!”

Morgan also said with certainty, "I think the same way, I think we have a chance to win the final victory! Find those good things, find our gold, no one wants to miss them!"

Henderson looked forward to it and asked, "Robert, do you think we can find a Fortune Creek again?"

Morgan pointed to the river not far away and said, "Although the situation is a bit special, I think we still have a chance to find a fortune stream again. It is close to the river and there is a lot of gold here. We can have a chance to win the final victory! "

Look, these people's requirements are not low. Probably because the harvest brought by Facai Creek is too much, everyone's appetite has become bigger, and some good gold mines are a bit disdainful. What everyone is looking forward to is Facai Creek is a rich mine!

Chen Ruobai thought about it carefully and then said, "No one is more eager to find a new Fortune Creek than me, but judging from the current situation, it is somewhat difficult to find a new Fortune Creek."

Hearing what Chen Ruobai said, Morgan and Henderson seemed a little disappointed. But they also understand that rich mines like Facai Creek are becoming increasingly rare. It is really not an easy task to find a Cai Cai Creek again.

That does require strength, and it seems that Chen Ruobai has the strength to find it.

But luck is also indispensable. Without good enough luck, no matter how strong you are, it seems to be in vain.

Chen Ruobai's words were half true and half false. He felt that based on the current situation, it was still possible to find a new fortune stream. It might even be a bigger discovery than Fortune Creek, with a chance to find a real vein of minerals. But there is no need to mention this now, as he has chosen to maintain a certain level of secrecy. Furthermore, no one can guarantee that we will find a new fortune stream. The current fragmented information is really not enough to give people more confidence and confidence.

Chen Ruobai pointed to the hillside ahead and said, "You also know the information about this mining prospecting. You know that our current mining area is long and narrow. I think the direction should be east-west."

Henderson immediately said, "I feel the same way. The mining area to the east should be the top. It looks narrow. But when it reaches the end of the west, it looks wider. This is consistent with the characteristics of some landslides. It looks a bit like a fan."

Chen Ruobai nodded and said, "This is also my opinion, so our main detection direction is to the east to see if we can find more traces and clues left by the landslide there."

In fact, everyone understands that even if you find those clues, it does not mean you have found a big mine.

But no matter what, it is one of the important clues. If you find it, you will have the opportunity to approach a new gold mine, which naturally means that everyone cannot ignore it. More efforts must be put in.

This is the fact. Only by not letting go of any clues can you harvest more gold. If you want to be lazy and relaxed, that means you are not suitable for the gold mining industry.

So just be prepared to endure hardships. Although you may not be rewarded for suffering hardships, you can't back down.

Henderson pointed forward and said, "It doesn't look like there are traces of another fault zone right now."

Chen Ruobai said very helplessly, "This is our most difficult problem now. It looks very complete and smooth, so I began to doubt whether my judgment was accurate. But we have no choice, we can only continue persist in."

Henderson and Morgan also accepted this statement. Judging from the current landform, the hillside on the east side does indeed look relatively complete. It does not look like there are signs of landslides, etc., and no gullies can be seen.

Then we can only try to look for it and see if we can find some traces and clues of the landslide.

Geological changes have always existed, and perhaps some landslides hundreds of millions of years ago have been filled in over time. Just from the surface, it is indeed not easy to find those clues.

Morgan looked at the bushes and woods ahead and said, "Wish us luck. I hope we can find some valuable clues."

Now it seems that this is indeed the case. I can only pray for good luck, find some valuable clues smoothly, and avoid unnecessary mistakes.

Chen Ruobai also understood that it was very important to look for clues to landslides, but based on previous prospecting information, it was actually not just landslide clues that were needed. After all, the landslide brought soil and sand, and there was a lot of river sand in the mineral sand.

So if clues of ancient river channels are found on the hillside, it is possible.

All this means that the workload ahead will definitely not be small, and it means that it is almost impossible for Chen Ruobai and the others to relax.

As for whether he could find a new fortune stream, Chen Ruobai couldn't guarantee it. The only thing he can do now is probably to do his best and accept fate. He hopes that his efforts will be rewarded.

Everyone now knows the focus of the next work and what to look for, so don't be idle.

Just head straight towards the top of the mining area and stretch forward to find it. Even though there may not be gold to be seen there, as long as the ore still exists, as long as the river sand and so on do not disappear, there may be some surprises.

This is indeed a stupid method, but Chen Ruobai and the others have no choice. If a stupid method can bring good feedback, it can be regarded as a successful method, and it can be regarded as very valuable.

The Luoyang shovel in his hand is the most powerful tool, allowing Chen Ruobai and the others to carefully observe some soil layers.

Chen Ruobai was very serious and used the drone to observe it carefully again, hoping to see if he could find some new clues, see if he could slightly determine the location, etc.

But he was disappointed. The relatively dense shrubs and trees covered many areas, and the relatively complete landform failed to bring some valuable clues and discoveries.

Naturally, there are some disappointments, but all of this is expected, so I don’t feel that there is anything to be frustrated about. Then I can only use some stupid methods to track and follow through constant exploration. Come on, this seems to be the best way.

"Robert, we may need to move forward." Morgan suddenly said, "I found the river sand and it turned a corner."

Chen Ruobai immediately went up to take a look. Looking at the layer of sand spread out by Morgan, his expression was a little unpleasant. Because the direction of everyone’s exploration seems to really need to change.

"The river is crooked, it is just increasing my workload!" Chen Ruobai couldn't help complaining, very helpless, "Keep looking and see if you can find more river sand! I pray not to see them again. Otherwise we will lose our way!"

Morgan was also praying. Originally, everyone was searching towards the east hillside, but if they continued to find some river sand, they would start to turn.

Prospecting is indeed not an easy job, and Morgan and the others know this well, and they all understand that this matter needs to deal with changes at any time.

But seeing that the situation is developing in a not-so-good direction, I must be a little annoyed in my heart, and it must be very difficult. But no matter how difficult it is, I can only persevere now!
