Experiment Log ❶ Future Archaeology of Molecular Mahjong

Artifacts of a future civilization were unexpectedly discovered through reverse-time excavation. Based on unearthed mahjong fossils, the Lab reconstructed a specimen using advanced techniques, later referred to as Molecular Mahjong.

□ Discovery of Civilization DC4739
A large number of fossil fragments bearing engraved markings were uncovered.
Among the fragments, a complete mahjong mold was reconstructed.
The upper-right corner revealed an imprint labeled MONO, presumed to be a master-code designation.

□ Reconstruction Process
Using the recovered mold as reference, the Lab initiated a full-scale reconstruction of the original form.

□ 2017
The first specimen was successfully reproduced and named OX, referencing “oxide.”

□ 2024
A new batch of 299 specimens is planned for replication, intended for collaborative observation and research across related fields.

Experiment Log ❷ Material Analysis Report

Testing revealed a high concentration of 1060-grade aluminum within the mahjong specimen.
The fossil demonstrated exceptional resistance to corrosion and chemical degradation, maintaining structural stability under extended observation.

In addition to the metallic composition, traces of high-plasticity polymer materials were identified, specifically polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), commonly known as acrylic.
This combination of materials suggests an advanced manufacturing process that balances durability, precision, and optical clarity.

Manufacturing Technology Report

Reverse-engineering analysis indicates that the mahjong specimen was produced as a digitally fabricated precision artifact.
The process involved the use of steel injection molds (IM), computer numerical control cutting (CNC), and multi-stage digital polishing—layered through a highly procedural manufacturing workflow.

• The edges are sharply defined with no signs of manual intervention.
  Material interfaces between aluminum and acrylic maintain a precision tolerance of ±0.02 millimeters, with consistent micro-textural patterns across the surface, meeting the full standard of industrial-grade experimental prototypes.
• Each fossil unit weighs 38 grams with a tolerance of ±0.019 grams.
  The center of mass is evenly distributed, and no batch variance was detected.
  During manual handling, testers reported a distinct sensation of weight and density.

Image and Semiotics Research Report

The surface inscriptions of the fossil display inorganic configurations.
Each symbol is constructed from mathematical geometries, reflecting the visual characteristics of a post-civilizational era.
The Lab defines this symbolic system as an inorganic algorithmic morphology.

Advantages

1. Optimized for efficient data reading and digital display.
2. Suited for high-precision digital fabrication processes.
3. Universally recognizable across linguistic systems.

Sample Distribution Program

Production of the research samples has been initiated.
Quantities are strictly limited and reserved for visionaries and researchers dedicated to the study of future civilizations.

• The Lab launches a global co-creation initiative, offering 299 regionalized samples for observation and experimental research.
• Each specimen bears a unique engraved tracking code and is accompanied by an official certificate from GreenDragon Lab, verifying its authenticity and archival record.
• Samples will be distributed at designated locations and times.
  Next distribution site: [TBA]
  Scheduled time: [TBA]

Molecular Mahjong: Sample Overview

Specimen Recovery Summary

The reconstructed sample replicates all known fossil specimens recovered to date.
Initial excavation yielded 144 fragments classified into standard mahjong categories: Bamboo, Dots, Characters, Winds, Arrows, and Flowers.
A secondary review uncovered four additional specimens, each inscribed with the term “Wildcard.”

Production Capacity and Authenticity Report

Only one specimen can be produced every 382 hours due to the extreme complexity of the manufacturing process.
The Lab is therefore able to supply only a limited number of ready-made units. When inventory is depleted, applicants must register and queue for production allocation.

Each specimen is fabricated using advanced digital manufacturing technology with exceptional precision. Laboratory assessments estimate a 94.2 percent correspondence to the original artifacts from Civilization DC4739.

Specimen Storage Report

The sample is preserved within a laboratory-grade sealed aluminum chamber.
The container maintains a controlled environment characterized by stability, constant temperature, and resistance to corrosion, ensuring secure conditions for subsequent research and long-term preservation.

Warning Report

The specimen contains no magnetic material and must not be placed in automatic mahjong testing machines.
Magnetic response testing confirmed the absence of magnetic properties, indicating that the artifact was not originally designed for automated mechanical systems.

Operation Manual

Each specimen is accompanied by a bilingual operation manual compiled by the Lab.
The manual provides detailed guidance for researchers worldwide on proper handling, observation, and experimental use of the Molecular Mahjong sample.
