Chapter 8 Chapter 008: Diamond Island

Helpless, Lin Feng had no choice but to follow, anyway, he was also Xiong Yuansong's subordinate.

Not far away, the island showed a gentle slope, and the rocks on the ground increased, and the weathered soil gradually became scarce, which is why the trees on this island are sparse.

"This is volcanic rock. I don't know if there is a crater in the middle. Lin Feng, you also graduated from the University of Mining and Technology. Take a good look at the geology here. I think it may be kimberlite..."

Wu Dawei, who was supported by Liu Xiaoting, squatted down at this time, carefully inspecting the rocks on the ground, with a very focused expression, and casually said to Lin Feng behind him.

Hearing what Wu Dawei said, Lin Feng couldn't help being taken aback, Kimberly Rock?

This is the rock that produces diamonds. Does this island have diamonds?

It's impossible, right?
Of course, it is not impossible, but very possible, because the shape of this small island is a volcanic island, and kimberlite is magma from the mantle.

The reason why Lin Feng thought it was impossible was because the island was too small.

However, Lin Feng, who had reacted, knew that he had made a common-sense mistake. Although the small island was only exposed to the sea surface, it must be extremely huge under the sea surface, and what was exposed was only the tip of the volcano.

At this moment, Wu Dawei suddenly burst out laughing, Lin Feng and Liu Xiaoting looked over curiously, and saw Wu Dawei pinching something with two fingers, looking at the sun.

"It's spessartite, purple, it really is kimberlite, and it probably has diamond minerals."

Wu Dawei muttered excitedly while watching, Lin Feng approached and carefully looked at the thing Wu Dawei was holding.

Between Wu Dawei's fingers, there was a grain of purple sand about the size of a rapeseed. If you were not careful, you couldn't see it clearly. For this, Lin Feng had to admire Wu Dawei's professional ability.

Without using any tools, he was able to tell what kind of ore it was.

Lin Feng didn't know if the purple sand grains were spessartine, but he knew that spessartine was an associated mine of diamonds. If Wu Dawei read it correctly, there might really be diamonds here.

Wu Dawei's voice was not low, and everyone was from a mining company, so they were very sensitive to these, so Xiong Yuansong was the first to come over.

Soon, Wu Dawei made another discovery, and it was a huge discovery. It was also a grain of sand like rapeseed, but it was colorless and transparent. Yes, he discovered diamonds.

This time, everyone was excited and began to search everywhere, even Brother Ming was very interested.

This is an uninhabited island, and now a diamond open-pit mine has been discovered, and the possibility of finding a larger diamond is very high.

But soon, everyone was defeated by hunger.

However, Lin Feng knew that since the small island was not high or large, it could not be scoured by streams and rivers, so the possibility of finding a larger diamond was too low.

Just as Lin Feng thought, Wu Dawei also discovered this very quickly, and told everyone, which made them lose interest even more. In the face of hunger, no gems are useless.

What's more, there are still unobtainable gems. It is still unknown whether they can survive on this small island. Even if the diamonds are exposed outside the rocks, can they be picked by hand without tools?

Everyone quickly dispersed. Among the sparse forests, there were many dwarf shrubs, bearing a lot of unknown black wild fruits. The fruits were not big, the size of soybeans, but they were in clusters. Under hunger, some people began to try , and soon, everyone started collecting.

Lin Feng walked to the highest point in the middle of the island, and also took two bunches of wild fruits in his hand, which tasted sour and sweet, very good.

When he reached the highest point of the island, he saw a not-so-deep semi-annular crater. At this moment, Lin Feng saw that the other side of the island was full of low shrubs. It was from this side that the volcanic lava flowed into the sea.

Looking around, I roughly estimated that the island is only more than one kilometer in diameter, which is pitifully small.

"Brother, what are you looking at? Did you find a big diamond." Brother Ming walked over and said with a smile from afar.

Glancing at Brother Ming, Lin Feng felt that Brother Ming was in good spirits today, and he didn't know why.

"It's good to find out. My plan to get rich will have the first pot of gold. If I find out more, then I will have the money to buy an island with you."

Lin Feng half-jokingly said, in fact, he really has the idea of ​​looking for diamonds. Others can't mine them, but he does, and it's very easy. But now it's better to confirm the topography and actual situation of this small island.

Because there are ten people who will live here in the future, so many people need to eat, but they have nothing to eat, so how many days can everyone last?

At that time, human nature will be completely distorted in the face of hunger, and Lin Feng does not want to encounter these things.

"It's a pity! Even if there are diamond deposits on this deserted island, there is no way to mine them," Brother Ming said as he walked to Lin Feng and looked into the distance.

Lin Feng was noncommittal, and asked with a smile: "What are you looking at? Do you want to see if there are any islands nearby?"

"Yes, there are very few isolated islands like this. Generally speaking, they are also archipelagos. However, without a telescope, it is impossible to see distant islands."

"With a telescope, it is difficult to find an island on the sea, unless it is very close."

What Lin Feng said, Brother Ming has to face the reality. Indeed, if the distance is close, the discovery should be discovered, and if the distance is far, even with a telescope, you may not be able to see it. Moisture distorts light.

Withdrawing his gaze, Brother Ming glanced around, and suddenly said, "What should we do next?"

Seeing Brother Ming's expression, Lin Feng understood the meaning of his question.

"I don't know, we are not very lucky. The island is too small, there are no resources, and there is not much food. Now I can think of coconuts and seafood, but I think it is not easy to catch them. There are no shoals around the island. .

By the way, I remember that many plants in Africa have large rhizomes that can store water. How about we take a look? "

Lin Feng knew what brother Ming was worried about, but the reality was like this, what could be done, if they floated to the lagoon islands, there was no need to worry about food at all.

Lin Feng suspected that being able to come to this island was probably the purpose of the two doors in his head, because there were gems on this island, and he also knew that the two doors in his head needed treasures for more than a year.

Treasures can increase the distance of his thoughts, and can also increase the volume of the black door space, but what the white door will increase, he does not know for the time being.

This is why he chose to work in Africa as soon as he graduated. Where are the most precious stones?
Needless to say, it is Africa. In fact, his strange ability grows, and ordinary ores are fine, such as iron ore, but the growth of iron ore is too slow, and the amount of iron ore required for a substantial increase is unimaginably huge.

At the beginning, he had a gold ring and a few old silver dollars, which made his mind distance reach three meters, and the space of Heimen also had five or six cubic meters.

But later Lin Feng realized that that was just the initial speed. Later, he saved money to buy gold and put it into the Heimen space. The strange thing about the space was that only half of the gold was consumed, and the other half was stored in the space.

After many experiments, it was always like this. Gradually, Lin Feng also understood the principle of space growth.

That is half consumption and half storage.

"Hey! Forget it, let nature take its course! I am also unfounded to worry about the sky. It is still an old saying that there is no end to the sky. Maybe it will be clear at any time."

Brother Ming laughed at himself, swept away his thoughts, and really relaxed for a while.

At this time, Lin Feng also understood why Brother Ming was so energetic before, and it was deliberately concealed. He probably also saw the thoughts in many people's hearts, especially Xiong Yuansong, whose personality changed the most and became more and more dull. Not a good sign.

"Yes, but I know Brother Ming, you are a lucky person with a natural face, and I believe that if you follow you, you will turn bad luck into good luck."

"Hahaha, you kid, I didn't expect you to be able to say it like this, but I like your words very much!"

The two of them stopped thinking too much, and started looking for wild fruits and plant tubers together. The island is not big, so they ran around it quickly. At noon, everyone returned to the place where they rested last night. Each one is full of harvest, the most is the bunch of black wild fruits.
