Finance in he mining industry

Anybody have good recommendations for books (textbook material preferred) that are essential or useful for finance in the mining or oil and gas industry? Thanks in advance!

go on yahoo finance and buy an analyst report…they usually have them for sale in the reasearch reports section of the company ticker youre looking at and you can learn whats topical then buy books relevant to that

Thanks for the advice, builders. What I’m more looking for is not about the industry trends or key statistics but more micro-level valuation processes. ex) among the process from ore extraction to leaching to refinery or smeltering, which numbers are used in which instance of the valuation, etc. I know the basics but I’m looking for something more detailed. Any books like this out there?! Thanks so much

Ah dang I was trying to save a trip to the library but I guess I’ll just have to get my lazy ass up and on over to the library haha well thanks to both u gentlemen!

Ps lmgtfy.com is the sh!t

there are a few of these books. use your research skills. they’re sold on amazon for a hefty price or at the library as other posters have mentioned.

The books I searched for online dont seem to target the financially hungry minds, rather, they get very geologically technical. Hence I thought I’d post here to see if anyone has a particular book in mind that they’ve resorted to in the past. But oh well that’s fine… I guess I’ll have to dig through the books one by one at the library… Wish me luck!

I haven’t seen any specific books that focus just on the financial side of things but I know W-S-P offers a specific Oil and Gas Modeling package that would be helpful. Most of the same principles would apply to both Oil and Gas and the Mining industries.
