Four people together, in addition to boasting and farting, they are talking about business. Now they are concerned about the small leaf red sandalwood horn and the pile of gold and silver coins.

Little black said, "the corner will be reserved for the auction. We invited more than 20 Jewish rich and Middle East royalty. Remember alfev? The guy who bought our sunset in monmaru is also interested. He's waiting to make a lot of money when shooting in spring. "

"The handling of gold and silver coins is divided into two channels, one is the private sale, and the other is the auction. The gold and silver coins at the auction are either of poor quality and lower price, or the quality is the best, and they will be sold at a high price at that time. We are secretly selling those gold and silver coins in the middle. "

Qin Shiou nodded and said it was good. He doesn't care much about the auction business now, because the fishing ground began to generate income for him. Butler's monthly income exceeded $10 million. These seafood transformed by Poseidon energy can be called huge profits!

When it comes to business, Billy said that now he also hopes to find a sunken ship. His men analyzed the sunken ship information and found a transport ship that sank in the waters of Somalia. It was an early treasure ship in Spain. The ship was crude and purified gold ore. if it could be salvaged, it would definitely make them rich overnight.

"We have been getting rich overnight." Brandon smiled.

Qin Shiou was more concerned about how much gold there was in that boat, so he asked.

Billy gave a slap. Qin Shiou exclaimed, "five tons?!"

According to the current price of gold, a ton of gold is worth about $40 million, less. That five tons is $200 million. No wonder Billy said they would get rich overnight!

Billy gave him a white look and said, "what five tons? It's a thousand tons! "

Everyone took a breath. Little Blake shook his shoulder and said, "Falk! A thousand tons? A thousand tons, what are you doing with five fingers?! Are you sure you're not mistaken? A thousand tons of gold? More than 40 billion dollars? "

A thousand tons of gold is really terrible. You know, before the 19th century, because the gold productivity level of human society was very low, in the thousands of years before that, human beings produced less than 10000 tons of gold, such as only 200 tons of gold in the 100 years of the 18th century

Until the discovery of a series of gold resources in the 19th century, the gold production has been greatly improved since then. Especially in the 50 years in the second half of the 19th century, the gold production exceeded the total amount in the previous 5000 years.

Today, the world's annual mineral gold is about 2600 tons.

But 1000 tons of gold reserves are still terrible!

Billy immediately broke their fantasy: "I'm FAK too, brothers, have you listened to me carefully? Yes, 1000 tons, but it's not purified gold, but crude purified gold ore! It's ore! "

Brandon was relieved and said, "I'll say, 1000 tons of gold, that's terrible. There's no need to fish for 1000 tons of gold ore, right? Rough extraction? How far has it been extracted? "

He is a bank. The bank wants to reserve gold. The gold reserves of all banks in Canada do not add up to 1000 tons.

Gold ore is not very valuable. As we all know, South Africa is a traditional gold producing country, but at present, an average of 4G gold can be extracted from a ton of gold ore in South Africa. Some high-grade one ton can extract 10 grams of gold, and low-grade one ton can extract 2 grams of gold. Vaults less than 2 grams of tons have no mining value.

If these ores are only raw ores, even if the grade is high, a thousand tons is only ten kilograms of gold, which is too little.

Qin Shiou didn't know much about this aspect, and there were no gold mines in Canada. His usual living environment was different from this aspect, so he asked Brandon what happened to gold ores.

Brandon explained: "gold ore refers to those ores containing gold elements or gold compounds. They can be beneficiated into gold concentrate or gold sand with high gold grade, and the gold concentrate needs to be smelted for royalty in order to become refined gold and gold products."

"Is there any ore with particularly high gold content?" Qin Shiou asked.

Brandon nodded and said, "yes, there are two kinds. The first is the best gold mine. They come from meteors. Some meteors contain gold, so when passing through the earth's atmosphere, meteors and the atmosphere produce strong friction and violent oxidation and combustion, making a lot of impurities consumed in this process. "

"You know, gold is very stable, and it is difficult to react with other substances even at high temperature. Therefore, due to the high temperature when crossing the atmosphere, which is 1063 ℃ higher than the melting point of gold, after landing, they will become a liquid flow state, adhere to stones or sand, and finally cool down to become a top-grade gold mine."

Billy shook his head and said, "the gold content of this gold mine is close to 100%, which is very rare. Once found, it will become a private treasure or a treasure of the town and the country. Of course, the gold mine on board is not like this. Otherwise, I would have gone fishing long ago regardless of the armed forces in Somalia! "

Qin Shiou motioned him to stop talking and continued to ask Brandon, "then what? What is another high-quality gold mine like? "

Brandon continued, "that's the gold crystal mine, which was formed about 400 million years ago during the Paleoproterozoic orogenic period of the Precambrian Proterozoic."

"This kind of gold mine also comes from meteors, but it is not that gold is refined, but that large meteors will explode when they pass through the atmosphere due to high temperature, uneven heating, different internal components of meteors, different melting points and gasification points."

"After the explosion, the meteor fragments continue to burn, and the impurities are obviously easier to burn. Finally, the particles left are rich in gold. These gold mines are often close to the natural crystal state of gold, showing equiaxed crystal system, cubic lattice or semi fluid. They are also very precious. They can become red gold by simple extraction! "

Qin Shiou looked at Billy. Billy shrugged and said, "what are you looking at me for? The ore in the sunken ship is not such a top-grade mine. "

In this way, Qin Shiou was discouraged and said, "do you know what the rough extraction has reached?"

Billy said wrongfully, "most of the documents at that time were lost. Where can I determine the specific information? However, these 1000 tons of gold ore can certainly extract at least one or two tons of gold, otherwise there will be no need for Spanish treasure carriers to transport them! "

A ton or two of gold is OK. The value is no less than the striking angle of lobular red sandalwood. You can't be too greedy and aim too high.

Thinking so, Qin Shiou patted Billy on the shoulder and said, "OK, man, let your people start work and dig it out."

He smiled awkwardly and said, "sorry, Qin, you have to come forward first."
