I handed over to another world

Chapter 112 Huge amounts of rare earth ores
After finishing speaking, Battalion Commander Wu was stunned for three seconds, and soon an uncontrollable smile appeared on his face.

"I don't even know when it happened!!"

"Senior Colonel Chen!"

Wu Xun was so excited that he waved to Chen Lin who was not far away.

At this time, Chen Lin was unpacking supplies with Princess Irina. When he heard the guard's call, he clapped his hands and stood up.

"Colonel Chen!!"

Wu Xun increased the volume again, and Chen Lin walked over after hearing it.

On the way here, Wu Xun introduced Chen Lin's identity to Captain Qin. After only mentioning Chen Lin's military rank, Captain Qin immediately understood what was going on.

Just looking at the exceptionally young Chen Lin, Captain Qin still had a hard time believing that he actually had the rank of senior colonel.

"Ahem, he has a special status. He is directly subordinate to the high command."

Wu Xun explained in a low voice: "Looking at the guards around him, his identity cannot be fake."

Captain Qin quickly adjusted his clothes and saluted politely after Chen Lin arrived.

"What good news is this?"

Chen Lin laughed out loud. When he saw Wu Xun's face turning red, he immediately realized that the situation was definitely not that simple.

"Rare earth minerals! We discovered rare earth minerals!"

Wu Xun couldn't wait to speak directly, "On the mountain west of Brest City, I heard Captain Qin say that there is a rare earth mine...Old Qin, tell Colonel Chen the specific situation of this rare earth mine!"

Captain Qin quickly organized his thoughts and then said: "The exploration team analyzed the soil samples brought back from the mountain yesterday and found that the rare earth oxides accounted for about 8%, including fluorocarbons. Cerium ore, monazite, bastnasite, and bastnasite are rich in rare earth minerals, and there are also a large number of associated minerals such as pyrosite, columbite, pyrochlore, and columbite rutile..."

Chen Lin listened to Captain Qin's words as if he were reading from heaven. He looked at Wu Xun beside him and noticed that Battalion Commander Wu also looked like he didn't understand at all.

However, Battalion Commander Wu still seemed quite excited: "Old Qin, just tell us how much reserves we have here!"

Captain Qin smiled and said: "The data I got from the detection department yesterday was about 7000."

"7000 tons?"

Battalion Commander Wu spoke subconsciously, but saw Chen Lin laughing at the side: "At least add ten thousand at the end, right?"

"7000...ten thousand tons!?"

Wu Xun was stunned for a moment, and then he understood why Captain Qin wanted to take away more than 3 people.

There are 7000 million tons of rare earth minerals in reserve. This terrifying reserve is distributed in the mountains in the distance. Even if it is thrown in for 5 people, it may not be enough!

In the absence of large-scale construction machinery entering the site, just opening the road to the location of the rare earth mine in the early stage would not be possible without tens of thousands of people!
This does not include the follow-up work. More than 3 workers entered the site, which was like a drizzle.

"Yes."

Captain Qin smiled and nodded to Chen Lin: "The estimated rare earth oxide reserves should be around 7000 million tons, and the resource volume should be around [-] million tons, including a large number of open-pit associated mines."

"If you have a chance, you can take a helicopter and take a look at the mountains over there. The gradient effect of the rare earth mines and the surrounding rock formations is very obvious." Battalion Commander Wu already knew what to do next. The correspondent in the distance also sent an order at this time, asking him to deliver all the surrendered rebels in the city to the engineering troops who came. Naturally, Wu Xun happily executed it.

Princess Irina was quickly notified of this incident. She immediately mobilized Lange's Warg Legion and divided them into dozens of squads to assist the engineering troops and personnel sent from the camp to rush to the mountains to the west. zone.

"What's the name of the mountain over there?"

Chen Lin watched the rebels being organized into two teams and rushing to the preset location in the west. He asked Irina next to him.

"Mountains of Blois."

Irina answered truthfully, "In our case, Blois means colorful."

"It's really colorful..."

Chen Lin suddenly laughed. He knew that the color of the rare earth mine itself was different from that of ordinary rock formations.

It is estimated that if you look down from the plane, the entire Blois Mountains should be mixed with yellowish brown, brown, red and even green. Such obvious signs are also conducive to the discovery of rare earth minerals.

This thing is said to be much more valuable than the gold mine previously discovered in the southwest corner of the outpost.

After all, although Chen Lin didn't know much about it, as soon as he heard the word "rare earth", he could immediately realize that this is a national strategic resource. Almost all high-tech industries and industries need to use these rare earth elements. , there is no such thing as enough!
Princess Irina looked at Chen Lin's somewhat excited look, and curiously asked about what they had just discussed.

As for what "rare earths" are, Chen Lin himself doesn't know much. He can only give the princess a brief explanation, saying that they are some kind of rare elements that can transform materials to make them harder or stronger. More flexible...

After Chen Lin said it himself, he felt that it was a bit too simple, so he took out his mobile phone and searched it, and seriously gave the princess Irina a thorough science education.

The princess didn't know what this thing was at first, but when Chen Lin introduced rare earths from military, metallurgy, chemical industry and even agriculture, she instantly understood what this thing was.

"In other words, it's like a rare material in alchemy?"

Irina said directly: "It's like adding some kind of strange alchemy material, which allows the magister to refine better materials or potions..."

Chen Lin was immediately happy when he heard this explanation. After explaining it for a long time, what Princess Irina said was quite concise and vivid.

"Actually, this doesn't just refer to a certain alchemical material, but the entire alchemy."

After Chen Lin finished speaking, he stopped talking. He saw a team of tens of thousands of people running to the west and disappearing from sight. In the distance, a pontoon was guiding some of the construction machinery needed to pass through the mining area, digging. Machines, mine carts and the like are lined up on the other side of the river, waiting to cross...

The pontoon bridge can hardly meet the upcoming transportation volume.

These mineral resources will have to be transported to Base No. [-], and then transferred back to the outpost of the Forest of Forgotten. This distance is not too short.

Chen Lin suddenly came up with the idea of ​​reopening the portal, but then he thought about it. At this time, a huge transfer site had been established at the outpost base, and all kinds of infrastructure were there... The Hongshan Base should not be It would make it easy to change the location of the portal.

Ding Yi’s idea of ​​opening a second portal, I don’t know if it’s possible...

When Chen Lin thought of this, he suddenly remembered the magical effects of magic.

He suddenly spoke to the contemplative princess, which actually startled Irina.

"Where is the magister beside you? I have something to ask her."
