Mineral Economics serves as a platform for academics, industry practitioners, decision makers and other experts who want to share perspectives and knowledge about natural resources.
A wide range of topics have traditionally been covered including, among others: mineral market analysis, exploration and development, resource availability, market development, price formation, international trade, environmental policy, sustainability issues, competition issues.
Mineral Economics is a joint project of Luleå University of Technology and Råvarugruppen Ekonomisk Förening, the organization which founded the journal Raw Materials Report in 1981.
