Chapter 145 Gold Thief
Director Yu shook his head and waited expectantly for the answer.
Lin Yuan continued to explain: "As I said just now, it is not that there is no gold in abandoned gold mines, but that mining is difficult and costly, and the gains outweigh the losses."
"But if there is a low-cost, simple way to mine, then can we continue to mine?"
"This method is called hole washing! It can be said to be a huge profit industry for some illegal mining organizations."
"Cave washing is different from common mining. It is extremely low-cost and simple, but it is very dangerous!"
Several people listened with great interest, and their curiosity about this unknown knowledge was brought to its peak.
The photographer asked curiously: "Does the cave wash with water and the gold is taken out? It's like panning for gold in the sand?"
Lin Yuan glanced at him speechlessly: "Are you kidding? Where did the water come from? It's stone, not sand. No matter how you search for it, the gold particles are very, very small."
"You may not be able to mine a piece of gold as big as a sesame seed from a stone as big as a fist. You're kidding me when you tell me to wash it with water."
"Ah..." The photographer shook his head in embarrassment and asked in confusion: "How to wash it?"
Lin Yuan did not show off and answered directly: "The essence of cave washing is to melt the environment inside the mud and stone into liquid by injecting water and chemicals, flow out, and then turn the gold into solid gold through chemical means."
"It's a bit like treating gold like water. It evaporates first and then condenses into water. In this case, there is no need to break the stones one by one."
“Not only does it save time and effort, it also greatly reduces costs, and the total environmental impact is also huge.”
"Generally speaking, you can find at most 1-2 grams of gold in a piece of slag, and this is not pure gold. After subsequent purification, the gold content will be even lower."
"But if you use the method of washing holes to mine, it is basically equivalent to a costless transaction."
"And once you clean the cave, if you are lucky, you will find a large amount of slag. If you accumulate a little, you will get more gold. The gold you mine will be no less than if you got up early!"
After listening to Lin Yuan's explanation, netizens in the live broadcast room were all excited.

——[Holy shit, is it that simple? There is an abandoned gold mine not far from my home, and no one has visited it for many years. Guys, I'm going to get rich! 】
——[Xing, you are really punishing! Didn't you hear Lin Yuan say that this thing is illegal? If it was so simple, why wasn't it done this way when mining started? Why are you waiting for the gold thief to come and clean it? 】
——[Sure enough, among the three hundred and sixty professions, there are always people who make money in ways I don’t know. Some people work very hard to earn thousands of dollars a month, while some people earn millions a month casually. I firmly believe that choice is greater than hard work! 】
——[There is a saying that the most profitable methods are written in the criminal law. As long as you can successfully land, you can be cleansed. I know many people who make their first pot of gold by breaking the law, and then go ashore to do business. , and have been on the right track since then. 】
Director Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked curiously: "How to clean the cave specifically? Is it possible that the smell just now was caused by the cave cleaning?"
Lin Yuan nodded: "Yes!"
"Because gold is very stable in nature, it generally does not react with other chemicals and is melted. Only a chemical called sodium cyanide can be used to turn gold into liquid and dissolve it in liquid."
"Then activated carbon is used to reduce the liquid gold to solid."
"The specific operation method is to first go to the bottom of the tunnel of the mine, and then use water to flush the mine."
"In this process, a gold-extracting agent must be used. Water is like glucose that lifts water. Its function is only to transport the chemical substances inside, sodium cyanide and gold beneficiation agent."
"Before rinsing, put enough activated carbon in the lowest place."
"The liquid gold that is washed down will drip on the activated carbon. They are removed every once in a while, and the gold will appear through high-temperature burning."
After listening to the process of cleaning the cave, all the netizens in the live broadcast room were amazed, and many of them even had a bold idea.
After all, this is gold, who can not be jealous of it.
However, the next second, Lin Yuan poured a basin of cold water on him: "Although hole washing is very profitable, there is a very big hidden danger, and that is safety issues."
"This is also why it is illegal to wash the cave. Once the mine is washed, the hole will become a deadly man-eating cave."
"You must know that cyanide is highly toxic. Sodium cyanide itself is a white highly toxic substance. It reacts chemically with water and releases bitter almond-flavored hydrogen cyanide gas, which is highly toxic."
"Those who wash the holes down there must be fully armed, otherwise they will surely die."
"And the most terrifying thing is that the cave cleaning must be at the bottom of the mine, and the ventilation effect on the bottom is very poor."
"This also means that after cleaning the hole, the hydrogen cyanide gas will stay under the hole for a long, long time. During this period, if someone accidentally breaks into the gold mine, the consequences can be imagined!"
Hiss
Everyone couldn't help but take a breath when they heard this.
Cold sweat broke out on my head.
If Lin Yuan said so, they just took a trip through the gate of hell.
There is really nothing wrong with saying that this hole leads to the underworld.
Yu Dao asked with lingering fear: "What should we do now? Call the police?"
Lin Yuan nodded: "That's all we can do, we definitely can't go in."
After saying that, he took out his mobile phone and called Director Yang to inform him of the situation here.
Without saying a word, Director Yang immediately stated that he would bring people and relevant experts over immediately.
On the mountainside at night, there is a cool breeze.
After this series of events, everyone was no longer afraid.
There are no ghosts in this world, it’s all about scaring yourself.
A few people were hiding not far away chatting.
Director Yu has already determined that he wants this house and will sign the contract tomorrow morning.
When he looked at the children again, Director Yu took the initiative to offer them an invitation to become a small actor in his own crew.
After all, it's quite scary when they pretend to be ghosts at night.
In this case, they no longer have to wander or go back to the orphanage. At least they can eat with the crew and won't be beaten anymore.
Upon hearing such a proposal, several little boys agreed without thinking.
Although life in the mountains is very comfortable, only they know how painful it is.
Not only Lin Yuan, but also the netizens in the live broadcast room were happy with this result. Everyone was happy.
Waited for about an hour.
A red and blue double flashing light appeared at the foot of the mountain.
It was obvious that Bureau Yang had brought someone here.
The little boy who was the leader volunteered to go down the mountain with his younger brothers to lead the way.
Ten minutes later, dozens of police officers and four heavily armed biochemical experts arrived halfway up the mountain carrying boxes.
The moment Director Yang saw Lin Yuan, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Last time you went to the funeral parlor in the middle of the night, and today you went to the graveyard in the middle of the night. Are you really selling your house?"
