A major breakthrough has been made in the exploration of Wangu gold field in Pingjiang County, Hunan Province. More than 40 gold veins were discovered by Hunan Institute of Geology in the strata over 2000 meters underground in the Wangu gold field, with the highest gold grade of 138 g/ton, and the accumulated gold resources in the exploration core area were 300.2 tons. The scale of the Wangu gold ore field in eastern Hunan is super-large. It is predicted that the prospective gold reserves over 3,000 meters underground will exceed 1,000 tons, and the resource value will reach $82.47 billion at the current gold price.
