Chapter 1286: Gold business is not good

"It's like this." Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, Qian Congcong hesitated and said: "Sergey has several gold mines here, and one of them can be sold to us. The proven reserves of that mine are okay. But there is a problem. It is a pyrite-associated gold mine, so if you really want to do it, you need a lot of investment, and you must use gravity separation, mixing, flotation, hydrogenation, thiourea, carbon slurry and resin adsorption at the same time. A comprehensive process technology can be used to sort gold mines. This means more employees and more costs. In addition, here is a permafrost layer, so mining is difficult. These are all issues that need to be considered."
"Can it be profitable?" Tang Fang directly asked the most direct question.
Qian Congcong said: "Brother Peng has shown me a document. The proven gold resources of this gold mine are about 30 tons, and the prospects are 50 to 60 tons. Considering that this is a permafrost, it is greatly increased. It is more difficult to mine gold, so it is difficult to handle gold ore, and it is impossible to continue working in winter. Therefore, the annual output of gold mines of the same scale here can only be between 10,000 ounces and 15,000 ounces."
"One ounce is about 1,100 dollars right now?" Jianghuai made a small calculation in his heart: "You produce gold worth 11 million to 16.5 million US dollars. How to calculate the cost?"
Qian Congcong replied: "The transfer cost is 80 million U.S. dollars, plus the cost. I contacted China Gold Group Corporation, Qilu Gold Group Corporation, Qilu China Mining and other companies, and showed them the information here. Considering that the environment here is a bit harsh, all the equipment here requires at least 22 million U.S. dollars. These equipment can be paid in installments. Then the annual production cost is about 7 million U.S. dollars."
Tang Fang thought about it: "If the annual output is 10,000 ounces, the profit is about 4 million U.S. dollars, and the investment is about 100 million U.S. dollars. The cost can only be recovered in 25 years. If the annual output is 15,000 ounces, then It will take ten years to get the cost back, and the policy risks here are not known yet. This business is not worthwhile."
After hearing this, Qian Congcong said: "It can't be calculated like that. It is a gold mine associated with pyrite, so there can be a pyrite production system, and sulfur dioxide or sulfuric acid plants can be put into operation. This is a lot of income. But consider it. The transportation conditions here need to be carefully considered, and the pyrite production system can be handed over to others.
At this point, he added:
In addition, all the gold produced is purchased.

Pyrite also has a very business name called "Fool's Gold", and many people have been fooled by this stuff.
The chemical composition of pyrite is ferrous disulfide, which has nothing to do with gold, but its color is as full of metallic luster as gold, so people are often scammed by this stuff. There is a scam that uses pyrite to pretend to be goose gold Scam money.
In fact, these two things are very easy to distinguish. Kotou gold is also gold, which can be cut with a single stroke of a knife, while pyrite cannot be cut with a single stroke. The pyrite becomes powder when it is hit with a hammer.
Many Victorian jewelry nowadays are made of pyrite, that is, many reflective small faces of pyrite are cut off, and they are inlaid on silver jewelry to make up precious metals.
However, due to its high sulfur content, pyrite is a good raw material for sulfur production.
However, Tang Fang's attention was obviously not on the use of pyrite: "You said Yangma bought it?"
Qian Congcong nodded: "Brother Peng said, Yang Ma will buy it at the international gold price. You will receive as much as you have."
After hearing this, Jianghuai nodded: "This won't happen like the black gold in some departments. You can also have a good relationship with Yang Ma. If you really develop a travel project here, there will be another tourist project."
Gold has always been a national reserve resource, so business with gold is not very good. There have been several cases of gold in China. For example, the famous "Yu Runlong Gold Case" is very representative, and it was even included in the 2004 National Judicial Examination.
This matter is also very simple to say. When the private gold trading was just released that year, when gold merchants took 46 kilograms of gold to trade, they were arrested by the police on suspicion of illegal business operations and confiscated the 46 kilograms. Gold, but at that time the state had stopped the right of Yang Ma’s rights to the gold acquisition license, retail business, supply approval, and processing and wholesale business approval. This meant that personal gold sales were no longer illegal operations, so Yu Runlong’s behavior was fundamental Does not constitute a crime. People are also released.
But what happened next was interesting: the city-level procuratorate revoked the district-level procuratorate’s
no prosecution decision
and prosecuted the case again. This time he sentenced Yu Runlong to the crime of
illegal business operations
, but was exempted from criminal punishment. . Yu Runlong naturally refused to accept it and appealed, and this time he was acquitted.
Now that you are not guilty, should you bring the 46 kilograms of gold back? The result is not found! The police said that the gold had been given to the bank, and the bank said that the money had entered the police account, and the police also said that the handling of the gold involved in the case was made in accordance with the law, and that it was not a wrong case, and that income could not be returned to the library.
Yu Runlong began to appeal and appeal everywhere, but there was only one result, and that was rejection.
What happened next became more interesting. One day after seven years, Yu Runlong was arrested again, saying that he was revoked the innocence sentence seven years ago and sent back for a new trial.
This matter is puzzling: since there is no new evidence, and the time limit for prosecution has passed, how can people be arrested as soon as they are arrested? After being detained in the detention center for more than seven months, the case was finally reopened. This time the new sentence was: Yu Runlong had once again committed the crime of illegal business operations and was still exempted from criminal punishment, but this time the sentence was confiscated. 46384 grams of gold was turned over to the national treasury.
After he was released, he appealed again, and then tried the final judgment, and the first instance judgment was revoked, and he was acquitted again. . . . . . It is almost exactly the same as the sentence that happened seven years ago. Full of drama.
But Yu Runlong was lucky, and finally he got his gold back and received tens of thousands of national compensation. But in another case, it was not so lucky. A businessman in Xi'an was confiscated by the police with 19 kilograms of gold, but the police responded that it was
sold out
during the recovery. It took 18 years to pursue the claim before successfully applying for state compensation. . . . . .
Now in the online society, people are more sincere and comfortable. When the media was underdeveloped, many unjust, false and wrong cases occurred. Now many people are seeking compensation from the state. And there are so many ‘golden cases’, ‘jewelry cases’, and ‘cultural relics cases’. Most of the confiscated items cannot be taken back.
In fact, even if these people were really ‘illegal business’ at the time, the police did not have the right to confiscate the gold. Because according to the law, only the three departments of Yangma, the industrial and commercial administration and the customs can impose penalties on the basis of illegal circumstances, and the public security organs can only detain and have no right of punishment, but who was in charge of this at that time?
Who made the media underdeveloped at that time? Unlike the media now, the police may be laid off by swearing when they are in office. . . . . .
Now that there is the matter of Yangma buying gold, there is no need to worry about bad things, but the operation of the gold mine is different from the business they were in contact with before, and they must make a good total.
Qian Congcong saw everyone's hesitant expressions and said: "Of course there is no rush for this matter. The return on this matter is a bit slow, but it also has advantages. It is a stable investment-I don't believe that gold will not be sold. Okay, I will send you the information in a while, and you can go back and study it yourself."
"Then what are we doing now?" Tao Haining asked puzzledly.
Qian Congcong stretched his waist and said, "Of course I am going to a dinner party. People have prepared a grand dinner to entertain us. It is a comfort to us."
"Congcong, wait a minute!" Tang Fang suddenly stopped Qian Congcong, "We don't understand gold mine management. This is the country of Xiong again. How do we manage this gold mine?"
After hearing what Tang Fang said, Qian Congcong said, "Oh, Sergey has a team with rich experience in this matter. They are engaged in various mining production. We only need to send a few managers."
"Is this possible?" After hearing Qian Congcong's words, everyone shook their heads together. This approach is too unreliable. Throwing 100 million US dollars here, just waiting for the money regardless of what? What kind of investment is this? Their hearts are not that big.
Jiang Huai said: "In this case, I won't play with it. If it really makes money here, why doesn't Brother Peng invest by himself?"
"That's right, such a condition is a pitfall. If they have the ability to develop, why don't they do it themselves?" Jiang Huai also said.
Qian Congcong shrugged: "It's not as complicated as you think. This is a win-win thing. The mining of a gold mine can attract many people to produce here. For Sergey, he can get money and attract the population. , Solve employment, and better become his native emperor. Increase his own political capital. People who invest can make money, nothing more. As for your doubts, I can tell you that Sergey doesn’t want to sell gold mines. Brother Peng helped him figure out the strategy of attracting population through gold mines. Wasn’t San Francisco so prosperous back then? That’s why Sergey took out three gold mines, which were originally sold to China Gold Group. Let's cut one off. If you refuse to do it, then forget it."
Several people in Tang Fang glanced at each other: "Then let's think about it again."
Qian Congcong looked at them and knew that they were thinking about it, but he was obviously not interested. But he didn't care, he had already guessed the result! They didn't believe Xiao Peng, but Qian Congcong did. He really didn't believe Sergey dared to pit Xiao Peng.
It’s a big deal, as soon as the video website sells itself, I’m afraid of being a feather!
"Okay, I won't mention it in advance. I heard that Mr. Sergey arranged a great Cossack knife dance. Let's go and see it!"
