I found the Mineral Economics course to be pretty cool, I guess. I mean, I didn't know much about the subject before, but now I feel like I have a good grasp of the basics. The course covered a lot of topics, from mineral supply and demand to pricing and market trends. I liked the examples of how mineral economics applies to real-world scenarios, like the impact of government policies on mining operations. The course materials were okay, but sometimes I felt like they were a bit too theoretical. Still, I learned a lot and would recommend the course to others who are interested in the field.
