Chapter 491 The King of Jade
After a night's rest, although it is still difficult for the two professors to hide their faces, their actions are no longer okay, and they are also eager to see the birthplace of the king of jade. The special geological landscape of Myanmar is irresistible for all geologists.
After the "Yudu Hotel" met with Hu Rong and others, a convoy of seven cars drove out of Pagan City and drove upstream along the clear Wulu River.
Although it has long been mined on both sides of the Wulu River, this river, which nurtures the Padan people, is still clear and quietly flows through the city of Padan.
The car drove upstream along the Wulu River. The scenery along the way was very beautiful, with wide banana trees, dense jungle, and the ribbling river, just like a picture.
At every distance of the Wulu River, there will be an iron cable bridge with wooden boards on the bridge. There are a lot of people coming and going. Most of them rushed to Pagan Market.
These people have locals of Padang who have been cultivated for generations, and there are also many people who come here to fish for the world. You know, Padang is the intersection of Mandalay, Meng Gong and northern Myanmar.
In addition to jade, under the land of Padan, there are also rich gold, silver and copper mines, including the teak in the forest, which can be traded! $ Source attracts all kinds of people who come to Padan with all kinds of purposes.
And in addition to these, when people talk about Pa Gan, they always say that Pa Gan is run by three lines, namely, the white line, the red line, and the green line.
Baicheng refers to heroin, which is close to the border between India and China. It has always been an active place for drug traffickers. Many drug lords wanted by Interpol are hidden in Pa Gan and other places.
The red line refers to the ruby, a specialty of Myanmar, which is also a famous beggar in the world, and the green line is naturally! \} It's green.
150 kilometers up and down the Wulu River, with Pa Gan as the center, there are hundreds of jadeite mines, large and small, such as Longtang, Xiangba, Huika, Magang, Dakanmu, Dongmo, Houjiang, etc.
Among them, the ten famous mines with a long history are all in the upper and lower reaches of the Wulu River, and most of the new factories are in the Dongmo area. The mines there are bare, and a large number of ** raw stones are directly presented outside, but there is no skin of the old pit.
After driving for more than an hour, the motorcade came to the foot of a mountain. After the people in the front of the car got out of the car to negotiate, the sentry at the foot of the mountain moved the roadbed away.
The motorcade drove along a very wide mountain road halfway up the mountain, parked on a flat slope, and everyone came down one after another. Brother Hu, is this your mine? It's so spectacular..."
Almost half of the mountain opposite has been flattened. Under Zhuang Rui and others, there are hundreds of people busy, and there is also an excavator called "strange hand", which keeps taking out stones from the mountain wall with a roaring sound.
The skilled workers next toimmediately came forward and identified the stones taken out by those strange hands. They were knocked with a hammer, and they all looked at by sight. As long as they felt that the stone was useful, they would be loaded into the car immediately, and then they would be transported out uniformly after it was full.
"This is not my mine. This mine is the Burmese government. Let me show you that the world's largest "king of jade" is here..." Hu Rong spoke and asked everyone to follow him up the mountain road. The largest emerald in the world? Do you have 3D kilograms?
Zhuang Rui asked curiously,!! Although Cui is not calculated in "carat" like diamonds, it is also a rare gemstone. The original stone that Zhuang Rui has solved now is also quite a lot. The most piece is just to take out more than l kilograms of jade meat from it. "Lake" kilograms???
Hu Rong stopped and said with a smile, "Brother, you underestimate the king of the world's jade. 3D kilograms multiplied by 10,000, which is almost the weight of the jade..." "How much?"
Zhuang Rui was staggered by Hu Rong's words and was almost tripped by the stones everywhere on the ground. ↓Wen D kg multiplied by 10,000, Li D million kg? Isn't that diligent?"
Zhuang Rui is very ** to the number. He immediately converted the D million kilograms into a more intuitive one. But even so, he can't think about what such a large piece of jade would look like. We have heard of this jadeite. Such a large volume of jadeite should be produced in the original mine. Let's go and have a look..."
After Feng Jiaoji heard Hu Rong's words, he looked excited. Two days ago, he seemed to be gone at this moment and pulled Hu Rong to the mountain.
Zhuang Rui knows that the primary ore refers to a class of minerals that first exist in the earth's crust and still remain in the soil after weathering. Most of the jadeite produced by the primary ore is colorless.
In addition, the quality of primary ore jadeite is often very ordinary, which is far less than the quality of jadeite produced by secondary mines such as iron and copper. Because of the formation of jadeite color, the condition is that there must be secondary ore, so there must be associated mines around those colorful jadeite growth rods. Five minutes later, everyone bypassed a mountain road and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of them.
From that half, the mountain is still complete, but after bypassing the mountain road, there is a flat river in front of it. Half of the mountain has been flattened, and there are still several deep pits in the ground.
Seeing someone coming, several soldiers guarding the periphery immediately surrounded them. After negotiating with Hu Rong's people, they did not ask for a body search, but they stood not far from several people with guns, watching their every move. Is this...this all emeralds?"
In a large pit that is more than 50 meters long and more than 40 meters wide, Zhuang Rui climbed the ladder to the bottom of the pit and looked at the stone "Emerald" in front of him in disbeliefly 0
The surface of the emerald, which is as big as the hill, is full of white crystal materials. Looking closely along these crystals, you can occasionally find some green, but the water is so poor that it can't even reach the bean seeds. It is a low-grade emerald.
Zhuang Rui walked around the giant jade with a length of dozens of meters and a width, and found that there were deep holes in all parts of the jade, which must have been punched out to explore the quality of the jade.
It's just that this material is very the same. Zhuang Rui observed it with aura. It does contain a large amount of jadeite jade meat in it, but the quality is the same as what you see outside. They are all low-grade jadeite varieties.
If this jadeite is untied, those stalks can only be made dozens of small ornaments at most. It's better to put it like this. If the Myanmar government has a way to move it out, build a museum to collect tickets for exhibition, and it can also make money.
"36 meters long, 126 meters high, extending inward \{\}. Q meters, it's incredible. The reason why this primary ore produces color should be in the late stage of the formation of jadeite, the earth's crust changes, ** invades into it, and produces ionic effects, resulting in these green vein-shaped jadeite.
This also destroys the structure of the whole jadeite, but such a large piece of jadeite is equivalent to a small vein, which is incredible..."
Professor Feng and Professor Chen went down to the bottom of the mine, pulled the tape measure and began to measure. After a few minutes of busy, they measured the volume of this "king of jade" and explained the cause of the formation of this jade to Zhuang Rui and Peng Fei who went down to the mine. It's a big deal, but the material is very poor. The carved thing is ten and eight yuan each. If this is a glass seed, that one will be valuable..."
Zhuang Rui said with a smile, but his words attracted the contemptuous eyes of the two teaching skills. Glass seed, what a joke!
If this is a piece of glass jade, it can give down the whole Myanmar government, and it will not be able to take it out here? With the appearance of the poor jingle of the Burmese government, it would have been sold by countless pieces.
"joke●joke one one one one one one"
Zhuang Rui smiled embarrassmently. He also knew that it was impossible, otherwise, not to mention Hu Rong's face, even if George W. Bush came, he did not have to show him face. Let's go ● Zhuang Rui ● Come up..."
After more than half an hour, Hu Rong greeted several people on it. He invited Professor Feng Chen to come, mainly to find the veins for him and brought them here to visit. It's just by the way, this old pit mine has been discontinued. Except for this so-called "king of jade", there is nothing else to see.
Zhuang Rui sat in a car with two experts this time. After just looking at the jadeite, the two were very interested and did not feel that the road was bumpy. They had been talking about the jadeite.
Zhuang Rui also learned a little knowledge next to him. In the past, he only knew that jade was picked from stones, but now he knows at least $! Some of Cui's forming factors and environment.
After the motorcade went down the mountain, it drove away from the Wulu River and turned into a fork in the road. The road became more and more difficult to walk. After nearly two hours, it stopped at the entrance of a bald mountain, but around it was surrounded by lush forests.
At the foot of the mountain, there were several large trucks parked, more than 20 wooden houses, and more than a dozen people with weapons walking back and forth there. Seeing the arrival of the convoy, they gathered around one after another. Let's get out of the car. Let's take the cable car and go..." This mountain road is very steep, and I'm afraid it's not allowed to climb up.
Hu Rong's so-called cable car built four tracks from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, using an electric gate to control the up and down of the cable car, which is a bit like the coal mine in the Hong Kong movie "Police Story". P: Zhou recommended ∽ plus update, only the difference, those with tickets will be smashed out. D
