Discover a diamond at will.

General Mopu was pleased by this luck, while also making his claims more credible.

“This is Kimberley Rock and is easily accompanied by diamonds.” Ye Qing also looked at the sun, the original diamond in front of him is of good quality, in the sun hidden a bright silver metallic glow.

This is an unpolished original diamond, polished, it should be WS2 quality, and the gloss will turn into a spotty colour.

Ye Qing threw the stone at one of General Mopu's entourages and asked him to take it to the grass shed to remove the diamond. Then he said to General Mopu: "In the light of the situation currently observed, the mine is smaller, though. ”

“But the quality of the original diamond is good, and there should be a certain amount of original diamond reserves in the underground rock belt. ”

General Mopu sighed slightly in relief and Ye Qing was satisfied.

General Mopu was not surprised to learn that there was a rock belt underneath and that diamonds were likely to be stored in the belt.

Because international diamond mining experience suggests that most diamonds are accompanied by rocks.

But there is a problem with the cost of mining.

Unlike metals or other minerals, diamonds can be smelted from ores through modern, industrialized means. The rarity of diamonds determines the very, very low probability of their occurrence in rocks.

It cannot be smelted by normal industrial means and can only be picked out of ore by the last hand of the workers.

For manual sorting, strip tons of stones that may contain diamonds from the rock belt and break them into uniform match-box-sized rubbles.

When you're unlucky, you can't even pick one diamond out of ten tons of raw stone.

This is a wilderness where industry is extremely backward and even basic electricity supply is difficult to guarantee, and this is an exploitative place where European and American jewellers firmly control diamond pricing rights.

In this case, whoever goes to large-scale mechanized mining of the diamonds in the rocks will be rendered homeless.

Even Ye Qing is not sure, after mining the hard earth layers of the surface, there will surely be considerable reserves of diamonds in the underground rock layers.

It is not too early, Ye Qing asked people to collect some crushed stones and hard soil and prepare to take them back for testing and analysis.

By the time the convoy returned, the sunset had almost merged with the earth.

Four hard-line Land Cruisers flew on wild brown land, waiting for convoys to arrive in Anut District Capital City at 8 p.m. local time.

Now that the capital city is in the shadow of a modern city, in addition to the urban infrastructure aided by the giant animal industry, General Mopu himself has invested in a four-star hotel and has set aside an exclusive suite on the top floor with hardware standards well over five stars.

This was used to receive Ye Qing specifically. After Ye Qing checked in, he shouted Tan Jing, the factory general manager, over here.

Now Tan Jinghao is carrying a list of plant equipment, waiting for Ye Qing's instructions.

Immersive spiral classifier.

Ore powder treatment system.

Enriched uranium centrifuge clusters.

Ultra-supercritical Unit Power Unit.

Adjustable magnetic field generator...

Ye Qing scanned a list of equipment and soon gained a comprehensive understanding of the types of equipment and engineering vehicles currently equipped on this side of the factory in Nicaragua. Jia Da Ye Qing, before that, I really didn't know the specific types.

Advanced industrial mining equipment is essential if large-scale mining is to take place.

Inside, the Giant God X is, of course, one of the main mining forces.

But it is only responsible for stripping the original ore from the soil or rock, and then precisely selecting one diamond at a time from the original mine, which is the most central issue.

The factory in Nicaragua, originally designed to extract metallic silica from solitary rock mines on a large scale, and other rare earth metallic elements, has perfect conditions for the treatment of the original ore in the factory.

Ye Qing, however, after looking at the list of types on this side of the factory, found that only these devices can be used to carry out the three steps of mining, crushing and initial screening.

The most critical step, how to do it...

Tan Jinghao, the factory general manager, saw his boss fall into contemplation, he tapped his head and thought, some uncertainty: “Boss, I remember that super drilling in Russia, using heavy media selection techniques. ”

“Can we also take advantage of this technological approach? ”

“Re-media mining?” Ye Qing shook his head.

Of course he knows about the Russian supermine, which is located in Siberia, and is said to store far more than the sum of all the reserves currently known to the world.

The mine originated when a giant meteorite hit the ground in front of tens of millions of millions of people, causing an instant of terrible pressure and high temperatures to carbide ground matter into a magical coincidence filled with diamonds.

Unfortunately, these are not normally condensed diamonds in nature; their main ingredients consist of Lansdale stones and are doped with graphite and diamonds.

It is not pure, let alone transparent, and is similar to synthetic diamond principles. It can only be used for industrial processing, without the possibility of becoming jewellery.

Otherwise, Russia would not have had the leisure to maintain the industry stability of the diamond market and would have made a lot of money in the international diamond market.

As for heavy media mining, this utilization of the density of ore containing diamonds differs from the normal rock density principle. Then we specialize in the same density of suspension, put the ore in the suspension, let the denser containing ore, slow sinking technology, is suitable for use in the Russian supermine.

But the mine used here, at least the one Ye Qing visited in the afternoon, is not suitable.

The supermine was the result of meteorite impact, its original ore density and diamond distribution were highly uniform, and the suspension effectively separated the diamond-containing ore.

But the distribution of diamond-containing ore here in Nicaragua is irregular, and those that do not contain diamonds may also contain other denser minerals, using heavy media mining techniques. The poor diamonds chosen were not enough to cover the cost of the suspension.

After saying the principle to Tan Jinghao, Tan Jinghao did not have an idea.

The three are counted in terms of the number of diamond mining technologies used internationally, and none of them can be hand-picked in the end.

When I saw Tan Jinghao there, he looked anxious and helpless, and Ye Qing said with some laughter that it was not as complicated as you thought.

Preliminary scenarios are now in place as to how the final step would be to select diamonds precisely from the original mine. A more detailed solution based on the characteristics of these mines can be developed only after examining the three mines.

Tan Jinghao wondered what the scenario was.

Ye Qing gently said two words, “hardness”.

……

Early the next morning, Ye Qing visited the second mine under General Mopu.

The mine is located not far from the port of Hackett, the only modern port in Nicaragua.

Originally owned by General Bogus, the owner of Port Hackett, Borgus is now a member of General Mopp's ranks, and the question of ownership of the mine is certainly not complicated.

The mine is located in a huge lake.

Nature's ghost axe creates this peculiar mineral vein.

According to General Mopu, the mine was first discovered 50 years ago. At that time, locals often fished in the lake, and lucky fishermen went down a net and caught a sparkling stone.

Of course, the stone itself does not emit light, it does so because the surface adheres to more than a dozen diamonds of different sizes.

The largest one has pigeon egg size and the smallest one is only rice grain size.

One after another, local fishermen touched stones with diamonds in the water, eventually attracting the attention of the rulers of the land.

This lake is three times the size of a mine on the other side of the forest, and the water is shallow, only two meters deep.

Diamonds are mined by workers who manually construct a perimeter dam in the lake, then empty the water in the dam, and then touch the stones in the sludge.

Diamonds are not necessarily set in stone, but some are mixed in sludge, requiring a large number of workers to squeeze the sludge little by little.

This lake produces a good amount of drilling, but the quality of the original drill is typically minimal enough to reach WS1.

After collecting samples of the mine, the convoy travelled to a third mine.

It is situated on the westernmost edge of the western realm, just one step away from the State of Tagana.

It is the largest of the three mines and produces only slightly worse quality raw diamonds than the first. So, theoretically, when large-scale mechanized mining occurs, this mine will be the one with the most harvest.
