To be honest, I’ve only finished roughly half of the book. Chapters on intro to mining, Metals Markets and investing in mining are probably the only three chapters I really understand. The geology terminologies are completely new and they do not register well. However, even this limited reading allows me to learn new things and avoid bad mining investments in the future.

It does leave you wanting more. But it's does cover the very basics very well.
