Description

This course is for anyone who needs to interface with the mining industry: suppliers of equipment and services, government and regulators, administrative and support staff. In short, anyone who needs answers to questions like the following.

  • Do you know who Robert Friedland is? Or Ivan Glasenberg?
  • Do you know what Escondida is? Or where it is? Or Oyu Tolgoi? Or Grasberg?
  • What is NI43-101? … The Equator Principles? … Copiapo? … Bre-X? … PDAC?
  • What percentage of GDP in Australia is accounted for by mining and mineral processing?

If you complete this course, you will.

You won't learn everything about the technical aspects of mining, but you will learn what is current, topical and important in today's mining scene. In short, you will get a comprehensive overview of the mining industry.

And you will get links to sources of information where you can find everything else. We hope that you will find the course so useful that it becomes your gateway for information on any mining topic.

The 2022 version of the course has been extensively updated and improved: charts and figures have been brought up to date and improved; many images have been replaced and some have been added; all online links have been verified and/or updated as necessary; mining people, companies and salaries have been brought up to date; and a new commodities section has been added for Lithium.

It was long reading course but I have learn a lot. It would be more appreciated if there had a video version of this course and also the course material downloadable.

Unfortunately often outdated, low resolution figures, read-only not video format, no voice over reading possible. If I wanted to have a long format reading content on mining I'd go to google or purchase a book.
