Wells became silent after hearing this, but after a few seconds of reacting.

He looked at Asta with a smile with wide eyes and asked, "Mac, weren't you kidding me?"

Asta repeated the words of 8 ounces per ton again, and Wells jumped straight from the wooden bed in ecstasy.

He hugged Asta and shouted.

Speaking of this, Li Changheng thought about the report Cao Yanjun faxed it to him, and it was hard to believe that Wells Busan never doubted whether Asta had committed a fraud after that.

As a second generation mine who was born in the mining family and worked in the mining industry for more than ten years, Wells is not an expert in geology and mining, but is a more professional and senior practitioner than ordinary people.

But he did not delve into Astar's words, nor did he personally look at the sample and go to the laboratory in Jakarta for verification.

But as soon as I got the news that each ton of ore contained 8 ounces of gold, I discussed it with Asta for a day and hurried back to the United States to find investors.

When Li Changheng thought of this, he became suspicious again because Wells did not bring the ore samples back, but only brought the inspection report issued by a Jakarta laboratory.

It is not Li Changheng who suspects that Indonesian scientists will make mistakes in even checking gold mine samples, but thinks about an entrepreneur who needs to attract investors.

The professionalism and industry recognition of Indonesian laboratories are definitely not as strong as those of the United States.

There is no problem with gold mines, no problem with ore samples, and most people will bring the samples back to the United States.

With the test report from the United States, let alone investing, the media will chase and report on him crazily.

But Li Changheng still underestimated Wells. This guy is worthy of being a senior practitioner born in a mining family. After returning to the United States, he did not rush to come to get investment.

Instead, he told the news about the former employees in Busan Mining who worked hard with his father.

Although few of these people are rich, they have already resigned because Busan Mining cannot even pay their wages.

But this group of people are senior practitioners in the mining industry, so I don’t know too many people in the industry.

Soon news of Wells' discovery of gold mines in Indonesia spread.

At this time, Asta, far away in Borneo, he sent a second test report back to a Jakarta laboratory at the right time.

This not only shows that the gold reserves explored in the mining area for the first time should be more than 1 million ounces, but also the gold content per ton is about 8 to 10 ounces.

Now, those who have read this report are basically jealous and then they start to calculate.

Just one million ounces of gold, the value of the gold mine reaches 140 million US dollars.

Of course, when real mining, even if the gold content of 8 to 10 ounces per ton is still not low.

But no matter how you calculate it, it is still completely fine to make a profit of 50 to 70 million US dollars.

And as long as people who are a little familiar with it, they understand in their hearts that the gold reserves in gold mines will basically be higher than this number.

No matter how unlucky you are, if you have one million ounces of base, you will not lose money if you buy Busan Mining shares.

Since you have a sure profit and no loss, everyone wants to get shares from Wells before the news has been fully spread.

Wells was very reluctant to sell at the beginning, but because of lack of funds, he could not expand the number of drilling wells and found more mining areas containing gold.

Wells finally had to gather former employees of Busan Mining and divide the company's shares into 100 million shares, with a quote of $0.7 per share.

If it is only $0.7 per share, it actually underestimates the value of the gold mine.

If the real-time gold price of 140 US dollars per ounce is 100 million ounces, some mining groups are willing to acquire it directly.

Because for listed companies, even if they only earn two or three thousand US dollars after deducting costs, it will have a great impact on the stock price.

Moreover, the price of gold is not only bullish, but also helps giant gold mining companies manipulate gold prices.

In this way, the benefits obtained by mining gold are far less than those obtained from the stock market.

So the former employees of Busan Mining basically didn't hesitate about the quotation of $0.7.

In just a few days, the gold mine had not been mined, and there was not even the equipment used to mine, so I made 20 million US dollars in book wealth.

But those former employees of Busan Mining basically have no real wealth.

If these people weren't basically middle-aged people over 3 or 40 years old, they might not have even saved up thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.

Of course, some people are crazy about mortgagesing their houses, and the reserves of a bet on gold mine are far more than 1 million ounces.

Unfortunately, even so, Wells only received 700,000 US dollars.

He paid 1% of the shares but received the first phase of funds to expand the exploration of gold mines. At the same time, news about gold mines inevitably reached more people's ears.

Then, a reporter from the American magazine "Golden-Down" came to him for an interview, and even joked that perhaps the Golden Pickaxe Award, the highest honorary award in the ore industry, would be given to him next year.

Wells, of course, heard the reporter's words, implying that he spent money to lobby various judges.

But Wells was not focused on the award at this time. As long as the magazine reports, more people will pay attention to the gold mines.

The facts were just as he expected. After the magazine reported it, it was still only circulated between the mining industry and capital.

But some large mining companies really set their sights on Busan Mining at that time.

The first one to take action was Black Mining, which has a good relationship with Lao Busan.

The initial offer was $8 million to get 20% of Busan Mining shares, which of course was low.

But with the first large mining company joining, the news immediately broke out and spread to the ears of small and medium-sized oil mining companies in California, as well as other mining-related companies.

Of course, big companies and Wall Street are not really stupid. Even Black Mining requires samples from gold mines to be transported back to the United States for testing.

Then Mike Asta strongly opposed the sample being given to the testing agency of Black Mining, on the grounds that it was worried that Black Mining would deliberately lower the gold content analysis report.

But it would definitely not work without testing. After the compromise, the sample was sent to a third-party testing agency, and it was a university in Melbourne, Australia for testing.

Li Changheng believes that even if he hasn't obtained it, whether there is any evidence of the Australian testing agency's problem, the fact is that the inspector or the supervisor of the agency is likely to be bribed.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be any subsequent events.

Now that there is a report issued by a university, Asta is more confident.
Chapter completed!
