章 145: Chapter 145: Mountain Forest Treasure
Jason also discovered gold, but it was less than 1/10 ounces, which is far from Ye Tian!
Even so, this kid was ecstatic, cheering directly by the stream, causing Ye Tian and the others to laugh, and also dispelled a curious little animal!
After the celebration, Jason also poured the gold back into the stream, although he was very disappointed!
Then the three of them returned to the all-terrain vehicle, put the gold panning tools away, got in the vehicle and were ready to set off.
Ye Tian drove a black Lone Ranger x3 alone. Jason chose a camouflage car. Mark and Hayward shared one.
Put on the helmet, fasten the seat belt, and check the equipment on the car again.
Everyone was ready soon, and the three all-terrain vehicles were ready to go, about to break the silence of the forest.
"Gentlemen, let us conquer the forest and discover gold! GO!"
Ye Tian stretched out his hand from the car, pointed at the forest on the east bank of Smith Creek and shouted passionately.
"Go!" Jason and Mark gave a warm response.
"boom--!"
The engine roared, and the three all-terrain vehicles immediately began to roar, completely shattering the silence around them, and the air instantly became hot.
"Guys, how about a game? See who is the first to rush into the forest and give the first place $50. A little excitement!"
Ye Tian said excitedly through the intercom, intending to add some fun.
"Awesome! Let's get started!"
Jason and Mark responded loudly, they were already eager to try, how could they refuse such a small bet.
"OK! I count one, two, three, everyone starts at the same time, one, two, three, GO!"
When the voice fell, the three all-terrain vehicles immediately let out a deafening roar, and rushed straight toward the east mountain forest like an arrow from the string.
On the grass behind them, six green ruts appeared instantly, leading straight to the forest.
Only ten meters out, Mark already took the lead and rushed to the forest.
He is an outdoor veteran, he is too slippery in all-terrain vehicles, and his driving skills are extremely proficient, so he naturally has a great advantage.
Ye Tian followed closely, the accelerator stepped directly to the bottom, roaring and struggling to pursue forward.
He was not familiar with all-terrain vehicles. At first he could only drive a pickup truck, but when the car rushed up, he immediately felt the difference between the two.
The all-terrain vehicle is wilder, more powerful, with very flexible control, a completely open driving experience, and it can instantly ignite hormones and make adrenaline rush!
Soon he found the feeling and pleasure of driving, his movements became more and more sophisticated, the speed of the car was constantly increasing, and he quickly approached Mark
Jason fell to the end. Like Ye Tian, he was not familiar with all-terrain vehicles. He couldn't get up at first, but he soon found the feeling. He got faster and faster and caught up.
"Hahaha! Steven, Jason, the winner of this contest is me! I just don't know who of you pays?"
Mark's excited laughter and ostentatious words came from the intercom.
"Win or lose is not necessarily true! Don't be happy too early!"
"Yes, the game is not over yet!"
Ye Tian and Jason responded loudly, blasting the throttle to the maximum in a blink of an eye.
The forest is close at hand, the order has not changed, and Mark is still in the lead. It seems that he is destined to win.
As soon as he was about to rush into the forest, six or seven vehicles suddenly drove out of it, also all-terrain vehicles.
"Guys, slow down, go and see who it is"
Ye Tian said loudly through the walkie-talkie, slowed down and drove head on, Jason and Mark followed.
The distance between the two parties quickly narrowed, and they saw each other's situation clearly.
A total of seven vehicles came out of the mountains and forests, each with two people, aged in their 20s to 50s, both men and women. This should be a team.
After two glances, Ye Tian quickly found the prospecting equipment in their car.
Obviously, these people are also here to investigate the mining rights. They are their own competitors. The two business helicopters on the grass should belong to them.
And from the perspective of team composition, several of them are obviously working in the field all year round. They look like vicissitudes of life, but they are very clever.
This should be a professional gold survey team, and Ye Tian made a judgment in an instant.
When he observes the other party, the other party is also observing him, and he also sees a lot of content.
When the two vehicles crossed, everyone stopped at the same place.
A white man in his fifties on the opposite side looked at the equipment behind Ye Tian and asked with a smile:
"Young people, are you here to investigate gold mining rights? Where do you come from?"
There is nothing to hide, Ye Tian nodded and turned back:
"We are from New York. We are indeed here to inspect the mineral rights. Where are you from? Is the inspection over?"
"Hello, New Yorker! We are also from the United States, Nevada Barrick Gold Company, also came to inspect the mineral rights, the inspection of Smith Creek has ended, we will leave soon"
Hearing the introduction from the other party, Ye Tian's heart immediately shuddered.
It's Barrick Gold Company! It is the world's largest gold company, with an annual output of millions of ounces of gold. I didn't expect to meet anyone them here.
The situation is a bit grim! I don't know which mineral rights this super predator is interested in? Or they want to eat all of them, which is absolutely easy for them, and they can do it without blinking their eyes.
It's better not to be in this situation, maybe I really left empty-handed, and I can only make money by selling Gonzales's survey reports!
Although the mood was a little heavy, Ye Tian's expression was calm and did not react abnormally.
"Isn't Barrick specializing in high-grade gold mines? Why would you look at lower-grade placer gold mines? Or have you made major discoveries here?"
"Where there is gold, there is Barrick Company. We will never let go of either vein gold mines or placer gold mines! As for major discoveries, maybe!"
This is obviously an old fox, showing pride while revealing any useful information.
"Okay! Let's talk about it later, we are going to the florest to investigate, see you later!"
"See you, young man, to remind you that there are grizzly bears in the forest, so be careful!"
"Thanks, bye!"
Ye Tian smiled and thanked him, then drove away and entered the forest.
"I like the aggressive and polite young man! But unfortunately, he are destined to leave empty-handed this time!"
The fifty-odd white man sighed with emotion.
"This kid is really aggressive and courageous. If a Chinese wants to get mineral rights here and mine gold, he really needs some courage!"
On the all-terrain vehicle next to it, some people were filled with emotion.
"Don't forget, he is from New York, and the people there are too obsessed with money! It's no surprise to take the risk, leave him alone, let's go and go to Elk Creek, Yukon!"
The white man in his fifties laughed and said, leading the crowd away from Smith Creek.
When everyone from Barrick Company drove to the plane, Ye Tian was already in the quiet and deep boreal forest.
Here are tall Alaskan red pine, cedar, spruce and other trees. The bottom space is wide, the ground is fairly solid, and there are not many shrubs and swamps, which does not affect the traffic of all-terrain vehicles.
Even so, as soon as they entered the forest, the three all-terrain vehicles immediately slowed down and set off toward the depths of the forest at a speed of about 20 kilometers per hour.
As everyone went deeper, the light gradually began to dim, and the sunlight could only enter the forest through the gaps between the trees, not many, and it lost a bit of heat.
Compared to the grassland outside, the temperature here is significantly lower, very cool, just like walking into autumn from summer!
The more you walk in, the more wild animals you see.
The squirrels jumping smartly on the pine trees; the colorful golden pheasants flying past the car from time to time; the flaming red foxes standing far away and staring here; the reindeer who are uninhabited and relaxed and so on.
All of this is dizzying, very fresh and exciting, but now is not the time to appreciate, there are more important things to do.
The three vehicles did not stop for a moment, maintained a speed of 20 kilometers per hour, and drove quickly to the second survey site according to the GPS guidance.
In about two minutes, everyone reached the second survey site, a small clearing at a depth of 450 meters in the forest.
"This is it! Hope to find gold again"
After stopping the car, Ye Tian immediately jumped out of the car with GPS and confirmed the coordinates of the survey point.
"This forest is a gold mine, and it will definitely bring us gold"
Jason took the sentence excitedly, then took out the metal detector and started to detect it, very impatient.
Then, Ye Tian walked to Mark's all-terrain vehicle, took out 50 dollars from his wallet and patted Mark in his hands.
When he first met Barrick, he was already at the end, and he was the last to enter the forest, so he was willing to bet.
Mark was not polite and put 50 dollars directly into his pocket.
After finishing this small matter, Ye Tian immediately began to arrange survey work.
"Starting survey, I am responsible for sampling. Mark and Jason surveyed the surrounding area with metal detectors. When they found out, they told me immediately. Hayward is on guard to ensure everyone's safety. Okay, let's move!"
"Okay! Let us discover gold!"
Everyone responded in unison, and then they took out survey equipment and prepared for survey.
Ye Tian took out the engineer shovel and a bag marked with a serial number from the car, and walked to the GPS indication point, preparing to dig the soil for sampling, to see if there is gold in the deeper layers.
Jason and Mark each took an underground metal detector and started to detect. Both detectors are small disks and can reach a depth of 2.5 meters.
And they can only be used to find slightly larger gold nuggets, and they can't do anything for extremely small placer gold, except of course, except in the case of a large amount of enrichment.
Ye Tian quickly walked to the survey site. Before the official excavation, he quickly looked through the underground situation of the survey site.
There is also gold here. The gold-bearing layer is at a depth of 1.2 meters, but the grade is slightly lower, about 0.8 g/ton, which is much lower than the sides of the river.
After retracting the perspective, he immediately bent down, waved an engineer's shovel, and started soil work.
The land here is not hard. After a summer, the surface frozen soil has melted, so there is no difficulty in excavation.
In three or four minutes, he dug a 1.2-meter-deep gold-bearing layer, loaded about 1 kg of ore, and completed the sampling work.
Before backfilling the pit, he opened the perspective again and looked deeper underground from the bottom of the pit.
As soon as I saw it, the surprise appeared again. After crossing the gap between 1.8 meters and 2.3 meters, gold appeared again, performing better than the above gold-bearing layer, reaching 1.0 g/ton, which is considered rich. Up!
It seems that the No. 1 mineral rights are very good overall and worthy of the shot.
Immediately he retracted the perspective and began to quickly backfill the pit, which was completely done in one minute.
Jason and Mark also ended the detection at this time and returned to the sampling point.
Neither of them was surprised to find that the gold grain was too fine to be detected by the detector, unless it touched a slightly larger gold nugget, obviously no gold nugget appeared here.
"OK! The work is completed at this point, continue to go deep into the forest and go to the next sampling point"
After filling the last piece of soil, Ye Tian picked up the sampling bag on the ground and said, then walked to the all-terrain vehicle.
The three all-terrain vehicles quickly started again, roaring into the deeper part of the forest, continuing to search for the fascinating gold.
