The astronauts' preparation work was done very quickly, and it was done in half a day.
The afternoon was when the platinum mine was officially mined, and soon the astronauts could see the finished platinum.
They are planning to conduct a small-scale mining next year, and strive to smelt a piece of finished platinum, among them the souvenirs they officially mined on the first day.
This represents the official start of this mine, and a large amount of platinum will be mined far and wide.
Even Jiang Cheng stayed in the command hall, watching the platinum mine mining process.
The small-scale mining operation this afternoon has very special significance for Jiang Cheng.
If platinum is successfully mined next, it proves that Mars can bring benefits to Jiang Cheng.
This is the first time that the development of Mars has brought benefits to Jiang Cheng, but it has a memorable significance.
So far, Jiang Cheng has invested tens of billions of funds in the Mars project.
But the money is basically invisible, and it is all pure investment with no return at all.
It can be said that all the money was thrown into the water, and it was a completely loss-making business.
But when platinum starts to be produced on Mars, this situation will slowly start to get better.
Although Jiang Cheng can't make a lot of money by mining on Mars, it is a good start.
At least this time Jiang Cheng saw the money back, even if it wasn't much, it was pretty good.
Jiang Cheng believes that as Mars becomes more developed, the more benefits he can get from it.
The Mars project is still in the investment stage, and it is far from the time to reap the fruits.
However, when Mars is fully developed, Jiang Cheng may be rewarded with hundreds of times success.
Because in the future, Jiang Cheng is very likely to control everything on Mars and make Mars his private property.
Having a planet of his own, Jiang Cheng felt very excited when he thought about this kind of thing.
Now only Jiang Cheng can travel between the Earth and Mars, and the only base on Mars is also Jiang Cheng.
It can be said that Jiang Cheng has taken control of the most important thing on Mars is transportation, which is the base.
When this Mars base slowly expands into a city, Jiang Cheng's influence will not drop in the slightest.
When the time comes, Mars will probably be Jiang Cheng's final decision, and other people will not be able to restrain him at all.
It can be said that Mars is now Jiang Cheng's own territory, and Jiang Cheng's control over Mars will only become stronger in the future, and no one can compete with him in the future.
Until now, only Jiang Cheng had the ability to send people to Mars, and people from other countries could only watch Jiang Cheng develop Mars with eagerness, but he could not do anything.
If one day humans officially begin to emigrate to Mars, then Jiang Cheng will be the supreme leader of Mars, and he will have absolute control over everything on Mars.
Every time Jiang Cheng thinks that he might be able to control Mars in the future
I feel that paying so much is not a waste.
Now the Mars project only cost him tens of billions, which is nothing compared to Mars ownership.
Even if Jiang Cheng paid hundreds of billions of funds for this project, it would be worthwhile.
Bi Jing's money was all spent on building Mars, and the future Mars belongs to Jiang Cheng.
In order to make his planet better in the future, Jiang Cheng decided to continue to work hard to develop Mars, and strive to see the arrival of Martian immigration earlier.
Of course, when Jiang Cheng was thinking about the future, he did not forget the current affairs.
(ccd) Although it will be very beautiful in the end, it will all be a long time later. It is better to grasp the present moment.
Jiang Cheng is now looking at the big screen in front of him. There is a busy scene on the big screen.
Many mining robots are working hard to dig out all the platinum ore underground.
There are also some auxiliary robots responsible for transportation, sending the mined ore to the integrated melting and forging equipment.
After the smelting and forging integrated equipment has coarse ore, the finishing process will begin immediately.
First of all, this equipment must purify platinum ore before it can be smelted.
The final product produced by this equipment is the final product, which is the platinum that Jiang Cheng needs.
However, there is no finished product yet, and it will take a while to see the final harvest.
The entire platinum mine is busy and nervously, and everything seems very orderly.
Each device and robot are responsible for their own work, and the astronauts are also busy with mine planning.
They have been busy these days, and they have to wait for stability here to relax.
In fact, it is the same whether there is an astronaut on the mine site, and the robot can do all the work.
Astronauts are a precious resource, and it is impossible for them to keep mining.
But today is approaching the first day of mining in the mine, and the astronauts have to come over and plan the follow-up mining route.
After all the things have been planned these days, they can no longer come here.
At that time, the robots and fully automatic equipment will complete all the work, and they only need to stay in the base to receive the goods.
Jiang Cheng has always been concerned about the progress of Ruo's mining site, waiting for the final harvest.
Those astronauts didn't make Jiang Cheng wait too long. After a while, a lot of ore would be mined.
These ore are enough to smelt a platinum ingot, so an astronaut pressed the button on the device and officially began the work of smelting the remains.
The integrated melting and forging equipment is very convenient, and all the work is completed in a short time.
A dazzling metal ingot appeared on the conveyor track of the equipment.
Jiang Cheng saw that if the beautiful piece of metal appeared on the display, the silver-white appearance was so beautiful.
The metal ingot exuding eye light in front of him was a platinum key with high purity.
This platinum ingot is the result of mankind's first mining on an extraterrestrial, and it is also the first harvest of Jiang Cheng's space program.
Today, it can be said that Jiang Cheng harvested, and it is also a day worth remembering.
Soon an astronaut walked to the front of the track and picked up the platinum ingot on it.
Even though this piece of platinum is not very large, it is not light at all.
The density of platinum is still very large. A small piece of platinum weighs more than ten kilograms.
The astronaut carefully collected the platinum, ready to send it back to the earth.
This first platinum ingot is very memorable. This is the first time that humans have conducted commercial mining on an extraterrestrial.
The iron ore that was mined when the base was built was only local materials, and it cannot be said to be a commercial-mining behavior.
It can be said that Jiang Cheng has created a whole new era this time, and humans will be able to mine and make money on aliens in the future.
