Chapter 405: sustainable development

After the Atlan Gold Mine was discovered, it was heavily guarded, and the employees of the Atlan Mining Company who mined the gold mine had to go through a security scanning procedure that was stricter than that of the airport when commuting to and from get off work.

After all, this is a gold mine, and a small grain is of great value if it is hidden and taken away.

The Atlan Gold Mine is different from other ordinary gold mines. Because the formation of gold mines here is carried out by magma from the ground, it has extremely high purity.

The mineralization guessed at present can discover natural gold on a large scale, with the highest grade exceeding 9000 g/ton.

Even so, to refine the current gold ore into internationally popular gold nuggets with a purity of over 99.9%, many refining procedures are required. Currently, a medium-sized gold mine refinery has been built near the gold mine.

At present, the globally recognized benchmark for mine operation efficiency, AISC, is the total maintenance cost. According to this indicator, the AISC of the Atlanta Gold Mine is less than US$100 per ounce, which means that from the mining of the gold mine to the refining to a purity greater than 99.9 % As soon as possible, the total cost of producing an ounce of gold at this mine is under $100.

At present, the mining speed of the Atlanta Gold Mine is about 100,000 ounces per month. Based on the current international gold price, the monthly income is about 160 million US dollars. With the current reserves, it will take less than two and a half years to complete the mining.

However, as the mining and refining operations become more proficient, there will be room for this rate to accelerate, so it is expected to be fully mined in about two years.

When talking about the Atlanta Gold Mine, Erica's expression became much more relaxed, but she still said with a little worry:

"In addition to the income from the gold mine, the tourism income of Atlanta is not high now, and the construction investment is very high, and there is a lack of projects with stable profits."

Indeed, as Erica said, the current Atlanta Island has always required continuous investment in construction, and the only relatively objective income is the Atlanta Gold Mine. But in addition, in terms of tourism, the access between Atlanta and the outside world has been opened, especially after the establishment of SP Aviation and the successive opening of routes to the United States, Asia and Europe, more and more tourists come here. stand up.

However, in general, the number of tourists cannot be compared with those of other well-known tourist cities or islands, and the current facilities in Atlanta are limited, so the income that can be obtained is extremely limited. It is inevitable that Erica, who is the chief member of the Atlanta Management Committee, is a little worried.

"There's no need to rush this. After all, the current infrastructure is not very complete, so many things need to be done later, and I have some plans now, and it may not take too long to see the effect."

Erica still trusts Chen William's words. From the beginning to the present, he has used many facts to prove the correctness of his vision.

And Erica also believes that since William Chen has invested so much money in Atlanta, there must be follow-up plans to develop here and create profits. Among these plans, William Chen also mentioned to her some things before, such as strengthening entertainment attributes, developing live broadcast and new media businesses, etc. However, as to whether the income obtained from these businesses can maintain such a huge investment in Atlanta, she Still a little out of place.

After visiting these projects in Atlanta, William Chen took a helicopter directly from the management committee building to the statue of Poseidon, the **** of sea, at the top of the central mountain range. When he watched closely, he felt that the statue was even more magnificent.

Especially when standing under the statue, looking up at the 50-meter-high statue of Poseidon, ordinary people are like ants.

This time, William Chen came here not just to take a look at the statue made with his own appearance as a template, but to put what he got on top of the statue.

As a lord, provide protection for the subjects of the territory. This prop can be attached to sculptures or iconic buildings to provide positive bonuses to the people within the range, including improving happiness, work and study efficiency, reducing negative emotions, and increasing loyalty to the lord. Level: primary, range: 50 kilometers.

Originally, other people could not see this prop, so soon, William Chen merged with the **** statue without knowing it. When he entered the **** statue in his sight, he could see this sea **** wave. The statue of Saidon seems to be a little more sacred, and from the statue, a faint energy is continuously exuding outwards, until it reaches a radius of 50 kilometers.

……

The next morning, when William Chen woke up, Erica and Alicia were still sleeping.

Erica's hand was holding his arm. When William Chen broke away gently, she muttered something in the mist. William Chen kissed her on the forehead, and Erica gradually calmed down. Continue to fall asleep.

There is a residential area near the Atlanta Management Committee building, which is prepared for the staff of the Atlanta Management Committee. There are two high-rise apartments and ten villas, the largest of which is Ellie. The residence of the tower, William Chen stayed here last night.

Before going to bed last night, he found two flower pots in the courtyard of Erika's villa, and planted the sum in the inventory.

There is only one. After Chen William planted it, Chen William got a message prompt, and what he got randomly was a succulent named "Vitality Ball". The juice contains substances that enhance the vitality and recovery of the skin.

Seeing this, William Chen realized that if the special substance in this "vitality ball" is really effective, can it not be used in skin care products?

If this is the case, then there is really a "money way". After all, everyone knows that it is a woman's nature to love beauty, and women's money is also the best way to earn...

Look at the wide range of cosmetics on the market today, as well as the high prices of various "creams", "essences" and "masks" of well-known brands.

Differently, as the props obtained by the advanced lottery, there are many seeds, and Chen William only took out one and planted it in another flower pot for the time being.

In the morning, when he checked again, he saw that the seeds in the two flowerpots had sprouted. The "Energy Ball" was a mass of flesh, while the "Flower Grass" was a tender sprout. Growth is not bad.

After that, William Chen came to the Agricultural Research Institute located in the southwest of Atlanta Island. The farm here is not small, and the director of the research institute, named Greg Fisher, is now 55 years old. He is a well-known professor at the University of Lincoln, New Zealand.

At that time, when the Katherine Foundation invested in the construction of this institute, many well-known agricultural scholars were offered offers, and Greg Fisher was the one who responded with the highest score through the "Magic Mirror System" and a relatively high reputation. One.

Lincoln University is one of the eight universities in New Zealand. The school ranks in the top 400 in the world. The school focuses on business, agriculture, and horticulture. The main focus of the school is research, and there are many research plans in progress and provide New Zealand. New technology and variety improvement in agriculture across the country.

And Greg Fisher is one of the leading figures specializing in agricultural improvement programs in the South Pacific.
