Alaska Gold Rush

Chen Ruobai carefully observed the quality of the ore, but this time he was a little disappointed. The reason was naturally that he could not see better quality of the ore, and could not see some golden light for the time being.

Of course, this will make people feel a little disappointed, but this matter is not particularly surprising. Not every time you can find mineral sand in the place you choose.

Chen Ruobai knows this very well, so he just needs to be more patient. There are other places where he can try it, and maybe he can make some discoveries. This is also very possible.

After all, Chen Ruobai still has many choices in his mind, and he also believes that he can definitely find more good things in the next exploration. There is no doubt about this at all, all of this is based on the premise that he has absolute strength.

Chen Ruobai is a professional in prospecting. Golden Mountain has unlimited potential and he will never be disappointed!

After careful observation for a long time, Chen Ruobai gained a little confidence. He knew that some of his judgments were correct, and he also recognized that he was in the right place now. He really didn't need to worry too much.

The potential of Golden Mountain is not small. Even though there don't seem to be many good things here, some small clues can still be seen. There are still some clues that can confirm his previous speculations.

This is obviously a lot of casual talk, and this is not blind confidence. Everything is actually based on reality and is a conclusion drawn from many clues.

Morgan had no intention of carefully observing the ore sand, etc. He had to continue operating the drilling machine. He had seen these mineral sands before, but he just couldn't understand some of them.

It is more important to do what you are good at. Morgan thinks that what he is good at is less technical work, such as manual labor.

As for those professional things, it is better for the boss Chen Ruobai to do them. Those are some things that others cannot do well at all.

After carefully inspecting some ore sand, Chen Ruobai said, "There shouldn't be much potential here anymore. We can consider changing to another place. The hard work is coming again, moving the drilling machine."

Morgan also understood and joked, "It is indeed hard work. Now my arms are no longer sore, but my shoulders will be very sore. As long as you work in the mine, it is impossible to relax."

"This is the best summary. Our work will indeed not be easy." Chen Ruobai couldn't help laughing and said, "Whether it was before or now, there will always be some difficult parts, and we can't do it like that." White-collar workers in the office are so relaxed.”

Morgan also has his own views on this, "Maybe they also have their own pressure, thinking about performance and documents. I still prefer these simple jobs, and I don't envy those people."

That's right, no profession is easier. Manual workers have the same hardships as manual workers. And those mental workers also have their share of hardships.

Perhaps only the rich second generation don't have to worry so much, especially the rich second generation who don't have to think about inheriting the family business and only need to think about eating, drinking, having fun and spending a lot of money can be more relaxed. But those people may also have some troubles of their own.

However, all this has nothing to do with Chen Ruobai for the time being. What he has to do now is to help Morgan dismantle the punching machine, and then consider the issue of relocation.

There are still some low-lying areas in this mountainous area, and Chen Ruobai has also found some seemingly good locations before. Of course, this does not mean that we should go to low-lying areas, but that we should conduct a series of extensions based on existing clues.

It is no exaggeration to say that every detection point is well thought out and has gone through a series of careful considerations.

Then prepare for the next work. There are still many detection points that need to be explored. Whether there will be more discoveries there is something that no one can guarantee.

Only by drilling holes can we know the answer. Only by doing these things well can Chen Ruobai feel truly at ease. All of these are what he should do. The mission of coming to Golden Mountain is at this time. Good prospecting.

Henderson came back in time. He came back after Chen Ruobai and the others had already dismantled the drilling machine and transported some parts. It was relatively timely.

Chen Ruobai joked, "If you don't come back, I will find a way to contact you. As you can see, we have completed the most complicated things, and now we are just waiting for you to come back."

Henderson also joked, "It seems that I came back too early. I can wait and come back. But I am not a person who likes to be lazy. I like to work and my professionalism has never been questioned." "

After the joke, Henderson said, "I checked carefully, and except for a small slope that became an obstacle, I can basically judge that the direction of the vein is continuing."

Chen Ruobai couldn't help complaining, "Ore veins? What you said is easy to misunderstand and will make people think that we have found a big mine. But I know that we have not found any mineral veins at all, and we are not looking at them now." To the big mine.”

Morgan next to him said directly, "What we found is a vein belonging to gold diggers. The vein you understand is the vein of the mining company. There is no problem with everyone's understanding."

There is a certain truth in saying this. It seems that some things can be understood in this way. There is nothing to say at all.

The real veins look like the veins of large gold mines. You can see a gold belt, and you can make a lot of money by mining along the veins.

The mineral veins that Henderson and Morgan understand are mineral sand layers. According to the locations of some of the currently discovered mineral sand layers, as long as they can be connected into a line and proven to be a whole, they can naturally be regarded as mineral veins. .

The requirements of gold diggers are not too high. After all, they are just "making small fortunes". If they can find a gold mine with a reserve of 500 ounces, it is considered a great success for everyone.

Morgan and Henderson firmly believe that they have found a mineral vein, and they have some theoretical basis of their own.

The reason is naturally that some of the areas currently being detected are basically low-lying areas. It seems to be relatively scattered, but some clues can be seen from the ore sand. The composition of the ore sand seems to be very consistent.

It's basically river sand plus mud and sand, which are piled up layer by layer. The mines in these low-lying areas also prove that everyone's previous speculations are very reasonable.

It's a mountain range now, but it was probably a huge lake or ocean before.

It has been thought before that the gold mine may be composed of landslides and river alluvial deposits, but this possibility cannot be ruled out now. But now everyone is more inferring that the earth's crust movement caused the terrain here to start to rise. The original low-lying areas were where gold was deposited. There may have been a lot of gold here.

Therefore, Henderson and Morgan feel that there are some mineral veins here, and they can fully accept this explanation. It's just that these people have relatively low requirements for mineral veins, so this statement is basically correct.

Chen Ruobai doesn't really agree with this statement, because he has higher requirements for mineral veins. He only agrees that a gold mine is truly found when there is a large gold mine.

Different standpoints, different perspectives on things, and even slight differences are naturally completely understandable and not worth making a fuss about.

While everyone was joking, they didn't put down the work at hand. At this time, you need to work hard and work hard to complete some of the current work plans.

Chen Ruobai's work is proceeding in an orderly manner, and many things are progressing relatively smoothly.

All this is within everyone's expectations. After all, things here in Golden Mountain have already been planned. A lot of work is indeed that as long as the early things are sorted out, the next series of recommended work will be relatively simple.

This is what Chen Ruobai and the others are doing now. They just need to advance the next prospecting work step by step. Now they are slowly seeing more clues.

Many things in the mine are becoming more and more clear now. All of this will certainly make Chen Ruobai very happy and satisfied, especially the discovery of some gold mines.

Putting aside the size of the gold mines and other issues for the time being, the continuous series of discoveries proved that his previous inferences were correct and that it was worthwhile for him to spend money to buy this place.

Henderson was also very happy. Looking at the newly drilled prospector, he said, "Robert, I can confirm that there is gold here. I promise I am not wrong!"

Morgan broke the news and said, "You've seen the gold, and I've seen it too! It's no secret that there is gold here, but we need to find out how much gold is here!"

Next to him, Chen Ruobai couldn't help but laugh, but he knew that what Henderson and Morgan said were reasonable, and what they said was basically equivalent to the truth.

The biggest advantage of using a drilling machine to drill holes is the improvement of efficiency. Although there is still some work that needs to be improved in the follow-up, there will occasionally be some small discoveries.

For example, Henderson had good luck before and saw a gold particle the size of a soybean while collecting ore sand. Even if this is very obvious, the particles are also very large, which is obvious at a glance.

So much so that everyone is now looking forward to it. It is not easy to have such large particles of gold. Even if the gold particles on the Facai River side are larger, not all the gold found has particles the size of soybeans.

If there could be such high-quality gold here, it would be considered a real rich mine, and even the main mine that Chen Ruobai thought could be found.

This is not an exaggeration, this is something that is really likely to happen.

"I feel very good now. We have found the right place." Chen Ruobai said seriously, "The quality of the ore here seems to be the highest, and there may be major discoveries."

Morgan said with some regret, "The only bad thing here is that the area is too small and the volume is not enough, so it is difficult for us to gain more."

The quality of the mineral sand is very high, which is certainly something to be happy about. But now the area of ​​the mining area cannot keep up, which also restricts the final harvest and other conditions. This is something Chen Ruobai and the others know very well.

This can be regarded as a fly in the ointment, but they really have no other choice but to accept this reality. I also feel that it is good to have the current discovery. After all, a series of discoveries have proved the correctness of everyone's previous work.

Several large and small gold mines have also been discovered. Although there are some that have no mining value, in any case, being able to find gold mines means success.

Especially in the Golden Mountain area, even the emergence of some small mines can prove that this mountainous area has extraordinary potential. It is not impossible to find more gold mines here.

Chen Ruobai was a little high-spirited, "At this stage, we just need to complete the exploration of this area, which is also this year's task. After completing these, we can formulate a mining plan after the gold rush season is over."

Henderson said with emotion, "It seems that our shelter construction was the most correct decision. This is not a job that can be completed in a day or two."

Morgan also joked, "I think it will take at least two months before we can complete the detection of part of the area. Maybe next year, we will also need to keep working here."

Henderson is looking forward to it, "If we explore here next year, the living conditions will definitely be much better. Then the gold mining team will come over, and the living standard will be guaranteed."

Chen Ruobai directly dispelled Henderson's unrealistic fantasy and said, "I don't think it's possible. We are just completing the work in this area. Next year we will move to a place that will be some distance away from the mining area. If I were prospecting, I wouldn't be able to do it every day. Take two hours to come to the living area.”

Hearing what Chen Ruobai said, Henderson showed a desperate look, "Well, as long as I'm prospecting, I have to be mentally prepared for very poor living conditions."

This is indeed the case. As long as you are still prospecting, you must be mentally prepared to endure hardships and stand hard work. It is also impossible to expect that living standards will improve.

There is nothing that can be done about it. Henderson is a gold digger, and he is still prospecting with Chen Ruobai, which means that he will definitely have to endure more hardships. He had no choice at all and could only work hard to overcome these unfavorable factors.

But considering that after these days of work, you can have a small vacation again, it seems to be a good choice.

You must be very tired when you are tired, but compared to other members of the gold mining team, you have relatively more vacations, which can be considered a gain and a loss. (End of chapter)
