Mine Financial Valuation and Optimisation (MRM 7)

Overview

This course introduces the financial and economic principles that support value-driven decision-making in the mining industry. Students learn how to assess mining projects using discounted cash flow analysis, evaluate investment options, calculate discount rates, and interpret financial statements. The course also examines inflation, cost behaviour, metal price models, taxation, and capital structure to help students optimise financial planning and project performance. Designed for professionals across geology, mine planning, engineering, metallurgy, technical services, and mineral resource management, it provides the analytical foundations needed to shift from volume-based operations to sustainable value generation.
