Abstract
One of the most important assumptions to be made in any economic evaluation is that of prices. Commodity prices can be found in special publications. For metals (see Sect. 1.2.7) the London-based, twice-weekly “Metal Bulletin” is the standard reference. The “Engineering and Mining Journal” publishes monthly price surveys for metallic and non-metallic commodities. The journal “Industrial Minerals” is the best reference for prices of industrial minerals.
