Chapter 566 Observation from the Mountain Top
What disappointed Yang Jing was that the Porgera mining area did not pass the application of Yang Jing and his group to visit the mining area, and the reasons given by the other party were very "cold".

"The mining area is undergoing technological upgrading and transformation, and irrelevant personnel are prohibited from entering and visiting."

A very strong reason, but one cannot refute it.

Faced with such a result, even Liu Zhaoming couldn't believe it.You must know that he and Adrian went to the mining area to apply, and Liu Zhaoming also used his own name, but he was still coldly rejected.

Guo Xiaoxiang asked Liu Zhaoming very puzzled: "Mr. Liu, you said that when you came to visit last time, Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton were well received. Why did you suddenly change your face today?"

Liu Zhaoming shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Who knows? But I reckon that the last time I was able to visit here smoothly was because BHP Billiton was conducting a major cooperation project with China. At that time, BHP Billiton wanted something from our country, so At that time, our application for inspection and inspection will be easily approved. As for this time, although the person in charge here is still Mr. Albany, but now we do not have any new cooperation projects with BHP Billiton or even Rio Tinto in China. On the contrary, there are still some irreconcilable differences with these two companies in terms of iron ore imports, and the refusal of our visit is probably to make us lose face."

After a pause, Liu Zhaoming continued to analyze: "Moreover, four private mining companies in our country have obtained the permission of the PNG government to enter the territory of PNG to carry out the exploration and development of precious metal mineral resources. It has already formed a direct competitive relationship with Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton, so it is no wonder they let us visit their mining areas."

Regarding this unexpected result, Yang Jing and his party were also helpless.

"Let's go, why are you still poking here? Are you making those guys laugh?" Guo Xiaoxiang said angrily.

"I said Xiaoxiang, don't be so angry. It's summer now, and it's easy to get angry if you get angry." Yang Jing joked with a smile.

Guo Xiaoxiang spat bitterly at the mining area, "If you say that this Australian is a white-eyed wolf, he is not familiar with him. He is obviously very dependent on our Huaxia now, and it is not an exaggeration to say Well, now Australian mining companies are pointing at our country to feed them, but these unfamiliar guys are when Huaxia treats them well, they are as docile as a dog, but once they have a relationship with Huaxia even a little Small conflicts, these guys don't know what it means to "take a step back and open up the sea and the sky", they still care about every detail, and even bite back from time to time. What a bunch of white-eyed wolves!"

Yang Jing patted Guo Xiaoxiang on the shoulder and said: "Okay, you all know that these guys are a bunch of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves, so why bother with them? If a dog bites you, you can bite it back again." ah?"

"No, I'm not going to bite back, I'm going to stew the dog that bit me!"

"Isn't this the end? Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton are giving us face today, and later we will open a gold mine that is bigger than this mine next to them and piss them off! This is the most powerful counterattack .”

Guo Xiaoxiang was somewhat relieved by Yang Jing's words, and he asked, "Then why are we still here? Let's go."

Yang Jing shook his head slowly, turned his head and looked around, pointed to the big mountain next to the largest main pit in the mining area and asked Chris: "Chris, are you sure you can drive the helicopter up to the top of that mountain? "

Before Chris could answer, Liu Zhaoming on the side said, "Director Yang, even if Mr. Patton can drive the helicopter up, we can't go there. That mountain even includes the small town of Borghera, which is theoretically owned by Rio Tinto. If we go up that mountain without their permission, they have the right to arrest us."

Liu Zhaoming's words made Yang Jing sigh helplessly, pointing to the mountain with an altitude of more than 3000 meters in the east of the small town of Borghera six kilometers away, and said: "Mr. Liu, we can't go up this mountain, so that Is it okay for us to climb the mountain next to us?"

Liu Zhaoming pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at the mountain six kilometers away, hesitated a little and said: "Based on the scope of the Borghera mining area, that mountain should also belong to Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton. But it's a bit far from the mining area, if we climb up the mountain, no one will be bored and trouble us."

Yang Jing clapped his hands and said, "Okay, then our next task today is to climb that mountain. Teacher Liu, Xiao Xiang, if you two don't want to climb, you can find a cafe or restaurant in the town, etc. Me, me and Chris and Adrian just go hiking together."

Guo Xiaoxiang asked a little puzzled: "Old Yang, isn't it just a broken mine? Do you really have to take a look?"

Yang Jing shrugged his shoulders and said: "Don't talk about it, I have never really appreciated what an open-pit mine looks like up close in my life. Come on, don't talk about it, wait in the town below I'll do it. I'll be back in two hours at the most."

Guo Xiaoxiang also knows that her brother has some secrets in the past two years. For example, his old man said that when his brother was studying in London, he had learned some amazing skills from an old Taoist priest, but Guo Xiaoxiang wanted to come When I wanted to go, I never thought about when my brother, who had been sleeping in the same room with me for two years, learned something from an old Taoist priest.

However, Guo Xiaoxiang's emotional intelligence is very high. Since Yang Jing is unwilling to explain some things, he just pretends not to know.

This time Yang Jing said that he wanted to climb the mountain to see the mining area, Guo Xiaoxiang didn't even hesitate, and readily agreed.

Yang Jing and his group returned to the town by the same route. Guo Xiaoxiang and the others found a coffee shop in the town to drink coffee, and Yang Jing took Chris and Adrian to climb the unknown mountain.

The altitude of the town is about 200 meters. Although this mountain is over 3000 meters, the height to climb is only more than 800 meters.

Moreover, after the height of the mountain exceeds 500 meters, the dense broad-leaved forest disappears, replaced by some coniferous forests, and there are not so many vines in the forest, which is relatively easy to climb.

Yang Jing's physical fitness is naturally good. Chris and Adrian are both professional bodyguards, and mountain climbing is not a problem for them, so even if the mountain is really steep, there is still no problem. Three people are stumped.

It took an hour or so, and the three of them successfully climbed to the top of the mountain.

Standing here and looking at the mining area six kilometers away, you can have a panoramic view of the entire mining area.

It was almost noon, and the weather gradually cleared up. A ray of sunlight emerged from the clouds, forming an extremely beautiful golden ray, which shot directly from the low clouds to the earth below.

In the mountains in the distance, low clouds flow slowly along the hillside, like water, extremely beautiful.

In the mining area six kilometers away, only the huge main mine pit and those scattered small mine pits can be seen. When looking at the huge mine cart from this position, only a black spot can be seen faintly.

The huge main mine has a diameter of one kilometer, and the circles of the mine tunnels seem to be like threads, extending downwards around the edge of the mine, but the main mine is too deep, even if Yang Jing and the others are standing in a lower position than the mine. It is more than 700 meters high, but only about one-third of the mine can be seen vaguely.

But even so, Yang Jing was shocked by such a huge project.In fact, just thinking about it makes me feel a little scary. The diameter of this huge main mine is more than one kilometer, and the depth is more than 600 meters. A mountain of meters!

Yang Jing once saw many pits in the emerald mining area of ​​Myanmar. The emerald mining areas in Myanmar are all open-pit mines, but compared with this mine, the mines there are like a teacup placed in front of a huge Twelve Seals marching pot , There is no comparison between the two!
The power of technology is indeed infinite.If this kind of mine was placed in ancient times, even if you had 10 people dig it, it would never be possible to dig such a huge mine without a few hundred years of work.In the face of technological machinery, this huge mine was dug out in less than 30 years.

Apart from this huge mine pit, the most eye-catching thing is the almost piled up slag.Mining gold, especially open-pit gold mines, produces slag that cannot be compared with other mines.To know how many grams of gold can be produced from one ton of gold ore, this ratio is really scary.

There are numerous hills of slag, and here in Papua New Guinea, such slag is very dangerous.Because Papua New Guinea is close to the equator and is still an island country, the annual rainfall is very large, so if the hills made of slag are not paid attention to, there is a great possibility of landslides and mudslides.

Last year, the Grasberg copper-gold mine in Indonesia suffered a slag landslide due to heavy rains, which directly buried more than 100 miners, causing the mine to stop working for nearly a year.

It is also a huge investment for the mining industry to deal with these tailings or slag.

After watching for a while, Yang Jing quietly activated the Sky Eye skill. At first, the Sky Eye really couldn't see anything, but when Yang Jing continued to inject excess energy into the Sky Eye, a sky suddenly appeared above the gold mine. A layer of turquoise light.

Yang Jing secretly recorded the amount of energy input and the strength of the light above the gold mine, and only then did he end this mountain climbing trip.
