Qi Minglin could hardly believe it.
Time ticked by, and the more information the technicians relayed, the heavier everyone's hearts became.
Zhang Richeng's anxious heart finally began to relax, and he was secretly overjoyed.
We're almost 1,500 meters deep now. Based on his experience, if we can't find rare earth minerals at this depth, then there's basically no hope left.
All that worry he had was just a false alarm.
It seems that Chen Feng knows he's about to die and is trying to stall for time, hahaha.
Zhang Ce stood up as he watched the sky gradually darken, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag.
Is this hope going to vanish like a bubble again?
Is our great nation truly destined to be barred from rare earth elements?
Meanwhile, the drill bit of the exploration machine has already penetrated to a depth of 1,500 meters, and through a complex mechanical mechanism, it has brought up some soil that was buried deep below 1,500 meters.
The soil passed through the hands of many staff members before finally being delivered to the testing equipment.
While the staff were conducting the inspection, the unchanging display screen suddenly showed different data.
"Lanium, cerium, praseodymium?"
Neodymium, Promethium, Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium…
Upon seeing these elements, the staff stared in shock and instinctively read them aloud.
The more she read, the more shocked she became. Her mind went blank, as if she were in a dream, and she simply couldn't believe it.
A result they had been waiting for and anticipating for a long time appeared in her mind.
Rare earth elements have been found!!!
The staff member was shocked and dared not be careless. She tried some different tests, but the results were still the same.
Tears of emotion streamed down her face. She stood up, mustered all her strength, and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Rare earth elements have been found!!!"
"What!"
These words struck the entire room like a thunderbolt. Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief as they turned to look, as if they had misheard.
Zhang Ce's hand, which was smoking, suddenly trembled, and he turned around blankly.
Li Guanghao raised his head instantly, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Qi Minglin stood up abruptly, so strong that she even overturned the chair behind her.
Chen Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, looking much more relaxed.
"What did you say? They found rare earth elements? Really?" Zhang Ce quickly walked over.
"Let me see, let me see, what's going on!" Qi Minglin was even faster than him, running over directly, pushing the staff aside, and looking at the display screen herself.
"Take a good look, make sure there are no mistakes!" Li Guanghao's hands trembled with excitement.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Richeng's mind went completely blank, and he stared at the group of people gathered together in disbelief.
How is this possible? How could rare earth elements actually be found in this place!
It's over, it's all over, those two sentences were all that were left in his mind.
"Lanium, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, promethium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium..."
"This is rare earth, it's definitely rare earth!"
After personally confirming the result, Qi Minglin jumped up with joy, looking up at the sky in ecstasy.
"We've finally found rare earth elements! We've finally found rare earth elements! Hahahaha!" Li Guanghao excitedly pumped his fist, laughing heartily as he finally exhaled a long-suppressed pent-up anger.
"That's wonderful! This is fantastic! We've finally found rare earth elements! You guys are amazing!"
Zhang Ce, abandoning his usual composure, slapped his thigh hard with joy, breaking his usual image for the first time.
"Let me see what's going on," Chen Feng said with a smile as he walked over.
"Dude, you're awesome! Hahaha, you said it's true? I'll burn a lot of paper money for your great-grandfather tomorrow, a lot of paper money, hahaha!"
Qi Minglin excitedly tugged at his clothes, shaking him until he was completely dazed.
"Calm down, calm down, my clothes, I didn't bring many clothes with me," Chen Feng said helplessly, patting her hand.
"Chen Feng, I've always believed in you!" Li Guanghao patted him on the shoulder and laughed heartily.
"It's just something to get by, it usually works," Chen Feng said modestly, but with a hint of arrogance.
And now all the staff members look at Chen Feng differently.
This included admiration, shock, disbelief, shame, and awe.
After all, if things went according to their plan, Qi Minglin and Chen Feng would have already been evacuated, and they would have been transferred long ago.
If that's the case, then they'll be completely cut off from rare earth elements.
The thought that they had almost missed out on rare earth resources because of their arrogance made them lower their heads in shame, too ashamed to look at Chen Feng.
It can only be said that thanks to Chen Feng and Qi Minglin's persistence, this rare earth mine was able to see the light of day.
It has to be said, the captain is indeed much stronger than the team members.
"Take a good look quickly, is this light rare earth or heavy rare earth? If it's heavy rare earth, that would be great!" Zhang Ce urged excitedly.
Rare earth elements are classified into light and heavy rare earth elements, with heavy rare earth elements being used in cutting-edge technologies.
Of course, both types of rare earth elements are valuable, but heavy rare earth elements are even more valuable, which is exactly what the country needs and what is most scarce.
"Quickly test it and see what kind of rare earth element it is!" Qi Minglin subconsciously called the staff over, but after calling them over, she seemed to find it slow and simply sat down in a chair to start the testing.
Damn it, calling others is not as good as calling yourself; you're the fastest at doing things yourself.
At this critical moment, everyone stared at Qi Minglin, who had her head down, and some were so nervous that they didn't even dare to breathe.
Under Qi Minglin's guidance, the data gradually took shape. Zhang Ce only understood the industry but couldn't comprehend the data, so he quickly asked, "What's going on? What type is it?"
Looking at the data in front of her, Qi Minglin slowly expressed the same surprise and excitement as Li Guanghao.
"Hahaha, it's heavy rare earth elements, heavy rare earth elements, that's great!"
“It’s heavy rare earth, the heavy rare earth we’ve been looking for!” Li Guanghao exclaimed, tears welling up in his eyes with excitement.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ce finally felt relieved. He took a deep breath, overwhelmed with excitement.
No language can express the excitement in his heart right now.
No one knows how happy they were when they finally found hope after the country was experiencing bottlenecks, exorbitant prices, and guns pointed at their heads.
"God bless China! God bless China!" Zhang Ce shouted, completely disregarding his image.
"Great, now all we need to do is find out exactly how much of these rare earth elements there are."
"Where are the soil samples from the other five stakes? Hurry up and bring them over, haven't they been tested yet?"
"Now we're just one step away from the finish line!"
Qi Minglin simply replaced the technician and sat down in the chair to speak.
