Chapter 138: Minerals worth ten billion


A radius of one hundred kilometers is equivalent to radiating an area of ​​31,400 square kilometers.
The defensive radius is two hundred kilometers, which is enough for the base security circle to cover 125,600 square kilometers.
Such a huge area, if placed in current Iraq, is enough to monitor more than a quarter of Iraq's land. After all, the total area of ​​Iraq is a little more than 440,000 square kilometers.
From the Zagros Mountains in the north to the large Arabian desert in the south, to the Syrian border in the west, and to central Iraq in the south, they are all within the security zone of the base.
In the past, only a 20-kilometer radius could be guarded, and there was very little to see. Now, Cai Ruichen can build construction units and defensive weapons in Baghdad at any time.
Seeing far, you can guard far, Cai Ruichen has just gotten two surprises with the authority that he just raised.
In the past, he always had a feeling of being bound, and there was no way to spread the development out, but now everything is different.
Especially recently, because of the long-term economic weakness, the Islamic State is brewing a southward offensive in Iraq.
The Kurdish armed forces are even more clearly showing the meaning of building a nation. The big powers want to control the situation in Iraq, and they are getting a little out of balance.
At present, the United States, which has raised Kurdish in one hand, does not know whether it has begun to lose control of the Kurdish armed forces or is deliberately indulging.
The Iraqi government has caused a lot of trouble recently.
Cai Ruichen has also been affected. For now, there is no conflict between him and the Kurdish armed forces, and there is no exchange between them.
But ISIS didn't know what to do, so it focused on him and made him very passive.
Of course, sometimes these can be regarded as minor problems, and the real big problems are those of Mossad.
Some days have passed, and it is still so quiet on the surface, Cai Ruichen will not be so naive that Mossad has given up taking action against him.
In recent days, once an Israeli plane approached the town of Marin. Cai Ruichen will return to the base very carefully.
Beware of the fact that Israeli warplanes actually launch missiles. Fortunately, this situation has not happened for the time being.
But this does not mean that it will not appear in the future. The previous twenty kilometers range. For the range of fighter missiles, it is really not enough.
Now that it has expanded to two hundred kilometers, there is no need to worry about sudden air attacks.
Even if there is an attack, a sufficiently large alert range will give Cai Ruichen more time to deal with it.
but. Now what he values ​​most is not these dangerous and non-dangerous things, and he did not continue to read the description of the base upgrade.
It is the first time for the base to display the distribution of ore within a radius of 100 kilometers with images.
The augmented reality projection in front of me immediately expanded the area covered by the map ten times. After a simple adaptation, Cai Ruichen quickly shined.
Two different maps expand at the same time.
The map of the wasteland world covers more than 30,000 square kilometers, all of which are clearly presented.
Mountains, rivers, plains, cities, all at a glance.
Beautiful, this is Cai Ruichen's first impression, which is completely different from the current Iraq.
On the map of the world. Even the whole country is almost deserted, and everything is barren.
One piece is beautiful emerald green, and it looks full of vitality everywhere.
The other is desolate, withered and sand, the city is dilapidated, and the road is dilapidated and rugged.
There are totally two extremes.
In Cai Ruichen's view, he even felt that the current Iraq is more like a wasteland world.
Of course, this is only on the surface.
But I have to say. Iraq in the wasteland world has been very successful in both urban construction and environmental construction.
Green vitality is everywhere. It is simply a world away from Iraq in this world.
The beauty on the surface is not what Cai Ruichen wants to see. What he really cares about is the distribution of minerals marked on the map.
"The wasteland world is rich in minerals, deep in mountains with a diameter of 15 kilometers. In the tentatively designated No. 1 basin, located 300 meters below the surface of the basin, there is a reserve of 15 million tons of copper. Mines. (There are still unproven.) Under normal human technological mining conditions, only 11% of copper mines are easy to mine, 68% of which are moderately difficult to mine, and the rest are difficult to mine."
"It is located on the edge of the mountain range 30 kilometers east of the Wasteland World Base. It is tentatively scheduled to be the edge of the No. 2 Canyon. It contains an iron ore with reserves of 27 million tons. Under normal human technology mining conditions, it is easy to mine... "
"Located in the Wasteland..."
...
"A total of 48 minerals, large and small, were discovered in the wasteland world above, with a complete variety of major minerals, of which 60% of the minerals with reserves of more than one million tons, and a total of 115 million tons of mineral resources can be developed. The mining is difficult, and it is impossible to quickly increase the capital income of the base in a short time. The above data is obtained by scanning the base with neutrino detection technology. It is the final exploration result and does not require further exploration."
The base also introduced the mineral exploration results of the Wasteland World in a timely and appropriate manner. Whenever it comes to a place, the mineral resources displayed on the map will also have a reserve value.
Immediately, a very intuitive mineral distribution situation appeared in front of Cai Ruichen.
Moreover, the base is very domineering. After scanning it again, there is no need to scan again. There is no difference in how much it is.
Unlike the current technology, it can only be detected whether there are more minerals below with deep mining.
"Yes, very good..." Cai Ruichen muttered to herself~EbookFREE.me~ I can't wait to take out the computer and immediately calculate how much money these minerals can be converted into.
"One hundred tons of minerals is equal to ten thousand funds, and one hundred million tons of minerals is equal to...10 billion funds..." As he muttered, Cai Ruichen's eyes followed with excitement.
"Commander, please restrain yourself, your saliva..."
The base's voice sounded abruptly, Cai Ruichen instinctively touched the corner of his mouth, and his face was a little hot.
"The base should remind the commander that some of these minerals are difficult to mine. Even if the base has extremely advanced ore extraction technology, it is almost impossible to recover on a large scale." The base then reminded.
"Uh! How far can the highest efficiency be?" Cai Ruichen's excitement immediately cooled down and asked.
"It is normal to estimate that under the condition of ensuring smooth road repairs, the current mineable minerals in the wasteland world can recover almost two million funds every day."
"Two million, it's really a lot." The disappointment flashed past, and Cai Ruichen said with some joy. (To be continued.)
