Rebirth of Fortune Soars
Chapter 937 Lithium Mine of the Future
"Okay! Which one do you want to mine?" Shi Dazhu asked.
There are so many proven things here, but no one is exploiting them.
"Well, let me take a look!" Qin Feng searched carefully on the map.
After a careful search, Qin Feng stopped his finger in the forest between Bridgetown and Ballingup in southern Western Australia, where a mineral vein point was marked: Greenbush Mining Area.
This is a tin mine!
"Why is Mao here?" Shi Dazhu was stunned, "Didn't Boss Ming want us to focus on iron ore?"
Iron ore can be used to build tall buildings, although tin mines are also important. But at this stage, the country is vigorously developing infrastructure, and the demand for iron ore is the largest.
Qin Feng smiled.
I originally thought I couldn't find it here, but I didn't expect to find it.
This is indeed a tin mine with a large reserve. It shows that there are approximately billions of Australian dollars worth of tin ore left.
This in itself has no mining value.
After all, although there are still billions of Australian dollars worth, if you mine, Qin Feng has some data provided by Boss Ming. The initial investment in mining would be nearly 1 billion Australian dollars.
Among them, it is mainly used to purchase various mining equipment, large ore trucks, road construction, etc. These are very large sums of money. Including subsequent labor expenses, the hourly wages of workers here are basically more than 40 to 50 dollars.
If the weather is hot, there are various subsidies. Also, various benefits are provided. For example, corresponding transportation to the city, as well as various daily necessities, etc.
It is inconvenient if it is too far from the city. Then small towns must be built to provide comfortable living conditions for workers. At the same time, their needs for enjoying family happiness must be met.
Therefore, many small towns in remote areas of Australia came from this way. They were all built by mining companies.
In addition, pension insurance must be purchased for him, which is 9.5% of his income. It is something that enterprises need to bear in addition to wages.
Calculating these 7788, plus the mining tax, every ton of tax is basically not profitable.
Therefore, after this tin mine has been mined for nearly a century, the remaining tin mines are relatively scattered and there are no companies to mine them. Although there are still tin mines worth billions left, it is not cost-effective after including labor, taxes, etc. It’s not that they don’t make money, it’s just that they work hard and don’t make more than workers.
That's not a good deal. After all, there are so many mineral resources in Perth, so just mine others.
So, this place was abandoned.
The reason why Qin Feng chose this place was because there was news in later generations, a very big news, that is, a lithium mine with extremely amazing reserves was suddenly discovered here.
It is said to be worth hundreds of billions of Australian dollars.
Qin Feng forgot the exact number. It was on the news at that time. Initially, metallic lithium was mainly used for various industrial purposes such as aluminum smelting, lubricants, pharmaceuticals, glass and ceramic vessel firing, and pigments.
Although it is widely used, the demand is not large.
But with the rise of mobile phones and laptops, everything has changed. In particular, the development and application of lithium batteries is the first revolution that truly enhances the status of lithium metal. Lithium is the lightest of all metals and has a high energy density, which means that lithium batteries are perfectly suited for digital devices such as laptops, mobile phones, calculators and digital cameras in terms of functionality and portability.
In addition, the emergence of electric-driven cars has ignited the lithium battery market and once again completed the second revolution in the application field of metallic lithium. This is also the key to why the lithium resource industry has become the hottest new industry.
However, there were not many proven lithium mines in the world at that time. After all, the demand was very small before, so people didn’t care much. The lithium mines that have been discovered are enough for the world to use for hundreds of years.
However, after two consecutive revolutions in lithium batteries, the proven lithium mines are no longer enough. Therefore, when this lithium mine in Australia was discovered, it made global financial news.
There were many reports at that time, and Qin Feng unexpectedly paid attention to it.
After all, the storage capacity is amazing. Occupying 30% of the global lithium ore market share.
How amazing this is!
Therefore, when Qin Feng came this time, he was looking for this first. Let’s capture this point first. That way, after the lithium battery revolution, this place will be valuable.
As for iron ore, there is too much. Just choose whatever you want.
"By the way, what if we discover those things that have not been discovered?" Shi Dazhu asked curiously.
"If we didn't find it, we found it. It's the same tax. It's just that there is a certain degree of tax exemption, which is a reward for discovering mineral resources." Qin Feng said with a smile, "In Australia, don't expect any real Get rich overnight. It's all about taxes here. There's no escaping it."
The government allows you to get rich, but you have to pay taxes.
And the more you earn, the more taxes you pay.
Therefore, relatively speaking, Australia's welfare benefits make it difficult for world-class super-rich people to emerge.
For example, the wealthiest family in Australia only has US$18 billion in assets accumulated over several generations.
Compared with the world's richest people, this pales into insignificance. You should know that there is no inheritance tax in Australia, unlike other developed countries that require heavy inheritance taxes.
Even so, there is only one family in Australia with assets exceeding tens of billions of dollars. The second place has not exceeded 10 billion. As for No. 10, Scott Farquhar, who looks exactly like actor Scott Alkins, has a net worth of only $4 billion.
In this country, it is too difficult to truly get rich. Various taxes ensure that wealth is as even as possible, making the entire population wealthy.
"Oh, it's so hard to make money here!" Shi Dazhu shook his head.
In comparison, China is simply a paradise for investment, and you can make money easily.
Here, making some money is literally killing people. Moreover, a small town must be built for workers to meet their needs for family happiness. This is simply incredible.
"Okay, how is your property here?" Qin Feng asked.
"Well, I looked at a few today, and they were all pretty good. I want to buy a villa on the beach and an apartment in the city. But I don't have enough time in the manor!" Shi Dazhu said helplessly.
Qin Feng smiled.
"There's no rush. Take your time! If it's okay, you can come over and choose the manor." Qin Feng said with a smile, "Anyway, you have nothing to do in the country for the time being."
"That's true!" Shi Dazhu said with a grin, "By the way, my daughter must like it very much here. There are children's facilities everywhere, in every block. It's so child-friendly."
Qin Feng smiled.
"In the status ranking of Australians, children are first, the elderly are second, women are third, and men have the lowest status." Qin Feng said with a smile, "Little Jing'er will like it here."
This is a good place, but for Qin Feng, the best thing here is the rich mineral resources. If you win here, your position in the country will be more stable.
