Chinese find gigantic gold deposit that could be worth R$498 billion
Liu Yongjun, president of the institute, said the discovery is a “great achievement for China’s mineral exploration strategy.”. According to information from the Reuters news agency, since 2020 Chinese authorities have invested in mineral exploration activities in the region.
Yongjun and his team used new prospecting technologies such as 3D geological modeling, Chinese news agency Xinhua News Gold reported. This technology allows you to create detailed computational representations of local geology by collecting samples and analyzing geological and geochemical structures.
More gold was also found during drilling in areas around the new site, suggesting there are other large deposits to be explored in the future. “Several rock cores drilled showed the presence of visible gold,” explained Chen Rulin, mineral prospecting specialist at GBHP.
This can be considered the largest and most profitable gold reservoir ever discoveredaccording to Science Alert. Furthermore, samples suggest a high level of quality of the gold found by the Chinese.
