    Mining Shares

    From Wikitia - Reading time: 2 min

    Investors like the mining industry because it consistently yields valuable metals for industrial usage and other raw materials.

    The industry is typically broken down into two categories for investors: majors and juniors.

    Juniors mining companies are higher-risk businesses, involved in the exploration of commodities like oil, minerals, and natural gas.

    A major has a vast portfolio of claims and a capital buffer to finance future exploration, making it less volatile and more mature than a junior.

    Commodity price swings, political instability in locations with active mines, and the challenge of discovering new, economically viable geological formations are specific risks that mining companies face.

    There are two types of mining stocks, the majors and the juniors.

    The majors have been around for decades, have activities all over the world, and generate a continuous stream of revenue.

    Shares of junior mining companies are different to mining majors. Junior mining companies have low starting capital, limited track records and lofty long-term profit targets.

    Majors and juniors are vastly diverse but their business model is the same. Their business models rely on depleting their in-ground assets.

    Mining companies rely on news establishments to share their stories and discoveries to the general public. An example of a mining shares website is https://miningshares.net
