Chapter 566： The old professor shook his head

Before going to Qingtai County, I naturally went to the provincial capital first. The vice president led the way and found a restaurant with a good environment and grade, and enjoyed the Taidong cuisine.

Compared with the dishes in Jiangnan Province, the cuisine here pays more attention to pasta, and has achieved the ultimate in all kinds of pasta. Wang Xudong was very satisfied with it and praised it.

After the meal, everyone gets in the car and rests in the car, because the whole highway from the provincial capital to Beiling City takes about two hours, and then it takes another 30 to 40 minutes to Qingtai County. The whole journey takes two hours. For more than half an hour, some have time to rest.

After Wang Xudong got in the car, he closed his eyes and rested in the back seat, and Lin Hu took the seat of the front passenger. Three cars left the provincial capital and headed to Qingtai County.

Beiling Iron and Steel Plant, Taidong Province.

This steel plant located on the outskirts of Beiling City is relatively well-known in the entire Taidong Province, and its scale is not small. It is one of the largest steel companies in Taidong Province, with an annual output of more than five million tons of crude steel. Iron ore is about eight or nine million tons.

The main source of iron ore required by Beiling Iron and Steel Plant is divided into two parts. One part is purchased from several domestic iron ore mines. For example, about 1 million tons are purchased from Ssangyong Iron Mine each year, and the other is imported from Australia. , Five million tons of iron ore.

Last time, Beiling Iron and Steel Plant also received invitations from BHP Mining Group and Lito Mining Group. Under the leadership of Chairman Yang Canhui, he went to Australia to participate in the international iron ore procurement and negotiation conference. BHP Mining Group, Lito Mining Group and other mining companies import iron ore.

They plan to purchase iron ore from Xudong Mining Group and also reported their demand, a total of 5 million tons. Yang Canhui's plan is to purchase 5 million tons from Xudong Mining and 3 to 4 million tons from several local iron mines in Taidong Province. Next year's iron ore should be enough.

However, Yang Canhui was more entangled in these two days.

In the office of the chairman, Yang Canhui was smoking a cigarette. There were Yuan Jianping, the general manager of Beiling Iron and Steel Plant, and two vice presidents nearby. From the smoke in the office, you can see that the four people discussed together for a long time, and there was no one. Clear results.

The thing is very simple. They saw a report saying that Xudong Mining Group’s production capacity is limited and it is impossible to buy more than 680 million tons of iron ore orders. The stone purchase contract is extremely risky.

"Dong Yang, I can't as well take another look, wait a little longer, and watch the changes."

Yang Canhui slowly sighed and said: "It seems that this is the only way to go. Wait a few days. If it doesn't work, we can only seek overseas purchases. For example, we will go to Bihe Mining Group to purchase iron ore."

They estimated that they did not read the report on Xudong Mining Group in the "China Mining News" and "Hua Xia Iron and Steel News". If they had read such reports, they would not think so, and would not treat Xudong in this way. The mining group has no confidence.

Domestic mainstream newspapers and media have not carried out any negative reports on Xudong Mining Group, but the negative reports of two or three small media are still spreading to a certain extent. It is estimated that a few steel companies’ leaders, such as Yang Canhui, have seen this. Report, and then hesitated.

…….

Ssangyong mining area.

Instead of arriving at the airport to greet Wang Xudong, Wu Wenvalue sent a deputy chief of his own, mainly a group of very important people from the mining area.

In accordance with Wang Xudong's instructions, Wu Wenvalue hired a very famous and powerful geological exploration team in China to prepare for the exploration of iron ore reserves and distribution in the mining area.

Twenty to thirty people came to this exploration team, accompanied by a large number of exploration equipment and instruments. What is remarkable is that one of these people is gray-haired and an old professor of China University of Geosciences.

The old professor is over 70 years old, wearing black-rimmed glasses, looks like an expert and scholar, and has a strong figure. He heard that the Shuanglong mining area is under construction and the scale is large, so he came.

Wang Xudong was aware of the arrival of the geological team, and did not ask Wu Wendu to come to the airport to greet him, but instructed him to receive the geological team well and conduct a comprehensive and detailed exploration of the mining area.

In doing so, Wang Xudong naturally has a purpose.

It is worthy of being a capable professional prospecting team. Once they arrived in the mining area, they were immediately put into work.

When I first came to the mining area and saw the scale of construction here, many people were amazed. The scale here is so big. No, a few members of the geological exploration team were discussing it.

"This mining area is really big enough. How big is the production capacity of such a large open-pit iron ore mining area!"

Another person looked at the huge mining area and said, "The scale is so large, I think it can mine at least one to twenty tons of iron ore every day."

Humanity immediately said: "I can't stop it. It is estimated that more than 200,000 tons of iron ore can be mined every day."

They don’t know that the current mining area is building iron ore with a daily output of 300,000 tons. The main projects and facilities are close to completion. What is currently being done is some finishing work. If iron ore is to be carried out at this time The mining is also possible.

The old railway station in the mining area has been refurbished and transformed into a larger-scale, modern and highly automated iron ore railway station. The main project has also been completed and it will be fully completed in a short time.

The main roads in the mining area have been completed, and the huge iron ore storage yard, the huge front courtyard area of ​​the mining area, etc., have also been basically completed.

For large-scale expansion in the future, a lot of space is reserved in planning. For example, many places are temporarily vacant. If the construction of iron ore with a daily output of 500,000 tons is to be carried out in the future, there will be enough space.

After being surprised by the first arrival, the people of the geological exploration team gradually accepted this large mining area in their hearts. Many people are thinking that the mining area is so large and modern, the iron ore reserves here should not be Less.

Wu Wenzhi personally accompanied the old professor, and everyone was inspecting the mining area, which used to be the mining area of ​​the Shuanglong Iron Mine. The mining time has not been 20 years, at least a dozen years.

The entire mining area presents the appearance of a typical iron ore open-pit mining area, with huge steps from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside.

The huge Ssangyong Mountain, almost half of the hillside has become a mining area, and the first-level huge steps are also very spectacular.

One thing different from other mining areas of Xudong Mining is that the entire mining area is not a gratifying crimson, but a little bit like a "sickness head" with other colors mixed in crimson.

If it is all red, it means that it is all high-grade hematite. If the red is mixed with other colors, such as black, brown, yellow and so on, it means that the grade of iron ore is not very good. High, there are plenty of other things in it.

After such iron ore is mined, it needs to go through a series of processing, such as crushing and screening, a series of beneficiation procedures to remove impurities and leave iron ore.

In the past, the annual stripping volume of the Shuanglong mining area was about 7-8 million tons. After a series of processing of the iron ore mined out, three to four million tons of finished ore were obtained, and at least four to five million tons were produced. Slag.

This is basically the same as other large iron mines in the country, and there is nothing outstanding. Accompanied by Wu Wenqi, the old professor was watching the mining area very carefully.

The old professor asked: "Mr. Wu, you have nothing outstanding here. I didn't expect that your investment here is so big and you are ready to do a big job."

Wu Wenqi said confidently: "We are currently expanding the finished iron ore with a daily output of 300,000 tons. The construction is about to be completed, and iron ore mining will begin tomorrow."

what!

300,000 tons of finished iron ore per day!

The old professor was startled slightly, then sighed slightly, and shook his head slowly. The old professor has a sharp eye. Even without any equipment, he can roughly tell that the grade of iron ore here is not very high.

If the iron ore of this sample site produces 300,000 tons of iron ore per day, how many slags will be produced, how many people will be needed, and how many iron ore refining workshops will be created.

Seeing the old professor sighed and shook his head again, Wu Wen value asked quickly: "Professor Ling, is there anything wrong?"

The old professor said: "Mr. Wu, you are also an industry insider. Do you know the meaning of 300,000 tons of finished iron ore per day?"

Wu Wen value nodded.

The old professor said: "Don't mention the Doulishan mining area of ​​Xudong Mining, Huangtang mining area, there is a very high-quality rich ore, there is nothing strange about the daily production of 300,000 tons of iron ore, and you have nothing outstanding here, and Many big mines I have visited are basically the same."

"Many large open-pit mines in China have an annual output of several million tons of finished iron ore, and the largest is more than 10 million tons, that is, tens of thousands of tons of finished iron ore per day. Although you still don’t know how the reserves are. , But the grade of iron ore is there, and at most 40,000 to 50,000 tons of iron ore per day."

Wu Wen valued: "If our mining area also has a large number of high-quality rich ore, can it also be used in the Lishan mining area, like the Huangtang mining area."

In my mind, the words of Wang Xudong sounded, Mr. Wu, I have a hunch that our Shuanglong mining area will be the same as the Doulishan mining area. The mining area is full of high-quality rich ore, and the grade and reserves are only higher than that of the Doulishan mining area.

For Wang Xudong, Wu Wenvalue is full of unprecedented confidence. After listening to Wang Xudong's wordsWu Wenvalue is full of excitement and hope, and he wants to explore in a comprehensive way. Is it really what Wang Xudong said? , The entire mining area is full of high-quality, high-grade rich ore.

The old professor smiled and shook his head: "With my many years of experience, even if there are high-grade rich ore here, the reserves will not be very large, and they will not be clustered together."

Is there really not a lot of high-grade bonanza?

Not far away from the two, in the same mining area, several technicians from the geological prospecting team were playing with an instrument, and it seemed to be set up. What is strange is that these people actually had the same **** expressions. Exclaimed there.

"Professor Ling, come and take a look!"

"Unbelievable, there is a problem with the instrument or with my eyes!"

………

The first one is sent!

There are a lot of things today, there are no time code words, only two chapters, first chapter 1 will be sent, code words will continue after dinner, and chapter 2 will be posted after finishing writing.
