Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, 2017 has passed.

It is now February 2018.

The annual Oscars are here as expected.

There is nothing much to say about the process.

The 90th Academy Awards has a total of 24 awards.

Among them, The Shape of Water, invested by Meyers Films, won the Best Picture Award.

Director Guillermo del Toro won the Best Director Award for The Shape of Water.

Gary Oldman won the Best Actor Award for Darkest Hour.

Frances McDormand won the Best Actress Award for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.

At this year's Oscars, speaking up for women is also a major theme.

When Frances McDormand, who won the Best Actress award, gave her acceptance speech, she proposed that all the female nominees stand up to encourage women's power.

On the same day, the nuclear power plant in Guinea, West Africa, began to break ground quietly.

After receiving scientific and technological talents from Iraq and Libya, Guinea's mathematics, physics and chemistry developed rapidly, and the Capital University gradually showed its prowess in mathematics, physics and chemistry.

A nuclear power plant is actually not complicated. The essence is to boil water.

When water boils, it will produce steam, which drives the turbine to rotate, and then drives the generator, and then produces a steady stream of electricity.

The difference between coal-fired power plants is what they use to burn.

A nuclear power plant actually uses the nuclear fission reaction in the nuclear reactor to generate a large amount of heat energy.

Uranium 235 is indispensable here. The energy released by the fission of 1 kilogram of uranium 235 is equivalent to 2,798 tons of standard coal. It can be seen how powerful nuclear energy is.

Uranium 235 is also a material for making atomic bombs.

It’s just that the concentration of uranium 235 used to make atomic bombs is different from that of uranium 235 used in nuclear reactors.

Nuclear reactors use low-enriched uranium with a concentration of 2% to 4%, while atomic bombs use weapon-grade highly enriched uranium with a concentration of more than 90%.

They are called enriched uranium because the content of uranium 235 in natural ores is only 0.7%. Therefore, if you want a higher concentration of uranium 235, you need to build a uranium enrichment plant to increase the concentration of uranium 235.

There are uranium mines in Guinea.

So far, a total of 14 uranium veins have been discovered in Guinea.

In fact, since 1968, the Guinean government has turned to foreign governments and foreign companies to explore uranium in Guinea.

The first vein discovered in Guinea is located in the Kalinko area of ​​Dingireye, Upper Guinea.

The largest known vein is located in the Boma area of ​​Nzerekre region in Senguine.

In addition, in the Bella and Yumu areas of Senguine, in the Damaro area southeast of Kairouan in Upper Guinea, in the Tugai and Mamu areas in Central Guinea, and in theUranium mines are distributed in Kindia, Foria and Conakry Ross Island.

Analysis of samples shows that the content of uranium octoxide in uranium mines in Senji is 0.2%, which is 10 times higher than the average content of uranium mines in Namibia.

Why did Martin choose Guinea, a poor country in West Africa, as his base?

Besides because this country is poor and easy to control.

It is also because the mine resources in Guinea are too rich.

This place, known as a "geological wonder", has the world's richest "bauxite deposits". Guinea's bauxite reserves are about 40-41 billion tons, accounting for about two-thirds of the world's total reserves; of which 29 billion tons have been proven reserves, ranking first in the world.

The world's four largest bauxite resource countries are ranked as follows: Guinea, Australia, Brazil and China.

Guinea's iron ore reserves and grades are also world-class. The iron ore reserves are large, high-grade and easy to mine. Among them, there are a considerable number of rich iron ores with a grade of up to 56-72%.

Guinea's iron ore reserves are as high as more than 15 billion tons.

Guinea's gold reserves are also very rich and widely distributed. The estimated reserves exceed 1,000 tons. There are mineral deposits throughout Guinea - divided into primary deposits (dispersed veins, network veins and quartz veins) and secondary deposits (deposit alluvial layers, water alluvial plains).

Guinea has a diamond resource reserve of about 300 million carats, of which 70% are gem-grade, and the proven reserves are about 25-30 million carats, stored in the alluvial layer of the riverbed and the veins of the mine, with an average grade of 0.12-2 carats per cubic meter. 45-60% can be processed into jewelry, and 25-40% can be used as industrial diamonds.

There are a large number of sedimentary rock layers in Guinea's offshore basins. In 2008, Martin's oil company entered Guinea to start exploration. According to optimistic estimates, the deepwater oil reserves of the block are 3.7 billion barrels, which can reach 400 million barrels after removing risk factors, and about 2.3 billion barrels in the shallow sea area, which can reach 370 million barrels after removing risk factors.

In addition to the above resources, Guinea also contains a large number of other rare metals and minerals.

Nickel ore: reserves of about 73 million tons.

Graphite: distributed in Senji Nzerekore, Rolla and other places, with a reserve of about 113 million tons.

Limestone: reserves of about 40 million tons.

Phosphate mines: distributed in the Boke area.

Nitrate mines: distributed in the Siquiri area.

Talc mines: distributed in the Konkan area.

Cobalt mines: located in the suburbs of Conakry and the Karume Peninsula.

Chromium mines: a vein was found in the Kakoulima Mountains in Coyah.

Copper, lead and zinc mines: distributed in Tremere, Kindia, Kole, Kolia, Coyah, Labé, Mali, Dabola, Dalaba and other places.

Platinum mines: two veins were found in the Kakoulima Mountains in Coyah.

Niobium and tantalum mines: in Kindia, LaBei, Dabora and Kulusa.

Guinea also has granites of various colors and qualities, pegmatites on Ross Island, and red, blue and green gems in the west of Kissidougou.

It can be said that Guinea, a country with a good reputation, has the innate conditions to develop heavy industry, because most of the minerals needed for heavy industry can be found domestically, without worrying about being strangled by the outside world.

The most perfect thing is that Guinea, this "geological miracle", was gradually unveiled in 2009 in the original timeline.

That is to say, when Martin extended his tentacles into Guinea, the country had not attracted the attention of the outside world, and at most a few gold mines were more eye-catching.

However, after the gold standard was abolished in 1933, although gold was still a strategic resource, it was not as valued as before.

Therefore, when Martin infiltrated Guinea, this country was just a small transparent country. When Martin basically controlled the country, Guinea's mineral resources became a state secret and were never disclosed to the outside world.

Making a fortune in silence is the kingly way.
