Which of them trusts mining and metallurgy more?
FINANCIAL CORPORATIONS or MINING CONSULTATION AND SERVICES COMPANIES?
Investment funds, banks, hedge funds, various financial corporations invest in mining and metallurgy plants. Hence, they believe in the future of mining and metallurgy.
Why didn't the consultation and services companies build a mining plant for themselves? It makes sense to build the best plant for yourself. Do they not trust their know-how and innovative technologies?
IMHO, If they don't believe in themselves, then why should we trust them?

Long-awaited news for everyone. Are there billionaires who made their fortune in the production of rare earth metals? Yes! This is the Russian billionaire #1064 Alexander Nesis (Forbes).
Alexander Nesis got his start in the late 1980s using uranium production waste to produce and sell rare-earth metals.
IMHO, He took up this problem not by accident, but purposefully. He knew what he was doing because he graduated from the university with a degree in radiochemistry.

IMHO, Every research or article on metals and mining should be profitable because they are applied sciences, but not basic sciences.
Metallurgy and mining have two criteria: process cost and profit. If there is no profit, then nothing needs to be done.
P.S. Metallurgy and mining (earth sciences) are applied sciences. Applied science is the application of existing scientific knowledge to practical applications, like technology or inventions [wikipedia].
Ph.D. Natalia Petrovskaya
100 out of 1000 billionaires invest in mining or metallurgy. This is 10%.
Out of 100 billionaires:
80 % have college and university diplomas;
3-4 % studied but did not graduate;
17-18 % have no university education;
2-3 % have no school education.
This did not stop them from becoming billionaires.
80 billionaires have over 110 diplomas. Of them:
Engineer, bachelor - 62 %;
Master - 24 %
Doctors of science - 14 %.
Billionaires are diplomas in the following specialties:
Economics, business, management - 51 %;
Law, jurisprudence - 9 %;
Metallurgy, mining - 6 % (only billionaires from Russia);
Other - 34 %.
14 Doctors of Science in the following specialties (15 diplomas):
Economics - 27 %;
Math and physics - 20 %;
Metallurgy and mining - 13 % (only billionaires from Russia);
Jurisprudence - 13 %;
Other - 27 %.
For those studying economics, the mind works in a completely different way.

6 out of 100 billionaires are educated in mining or metallurgy, like mine.
They are all from Russia, like me. No billionaire from other countries has a mining or metallurgical education.

Dear ladies and gentlemen!
Imagine that you can predict the
financial success of a mining enterprise or its catastrophe is much
more early (10-20 years before this event)!?
The entire
investment situation can be successfully calculated and identified using
exact sciences, our deep knowledge and great experience in mining.
These are not just words.
With satisfaction we are happy to
inform you about the appearance of a outstanding service "The express
evaluation of the ore deposit according to Petrovsky's criteria." Our
assessment is made on the strict calculation. You really can do it with
us!
This is the world's first comprehensive in-depth assessment for appraisal investment in mining.
With
the advent of this deep assessment, you can already know the
development of events for several decades ahead. You can easily see for
yourself.
As a result, you get a realistic scenario of the most likely development of this mining enterprise.
You can compare a lot of options and choose the best, not what they impose on you.
Invest in the best!
We do not have competitors. We are the only ones who have the necessary knowledge and we are ready to share with you.
I am a disinterested person. Invest in what you want! And as much as possible!
Anyway,
tomorrow you all will come to me with your so-called "mineral deposits"
for my help to return to you at least part of your lost money. After
all, except me, no one can really help you with the case... All others
are just talking and promising.
And only that man, who is wise, will come to me today to get advice before investing. This is your money! You choose!
We wish you success in business!
The necessary input data for the express evaluation:
Mineral
Analysis from X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), mineral composition of the ore
(Required. The apparatus is much better, but not the person)
The chemical composition of the ore (Required. Can X-ray (XRF). The apparatus is much better, but not the person)
Description of rocks (It is desirable, but not obligatory)
We do not have intermediaries. You can contact us directly:

Note:
Despite the grinding the teeth of unscrupulous opponents, the authority
of Ph.D. Natalia Petrovskaya in the mining industry is higher in the
world than ever. Everyone is trying to get her advice (to give it as its
own wisdom). Get the genuine advice from the famous guru - Ph.D.
Petrovskaya - order a deep assessment of investment risks in mining and
get a 50% discount for the next service (evaluation or consultation)!
100 out of 1000 billionaires invest in
mining (10 %). If we will use transparent calculations of "Mineral
Information System", there will be more investors.

You often ask me: "Why do not you want to work in an academic environment at the university of some country?"
I answer: "It's true. I really do
not want this. I do not want to participate in Lie! Therefore, I do not
want to work in an academic environment.
I'm an independent scientist!"
I do not take judging about the scope of scientific knowledge from which
I am far. However, what they (academic science) write in their articles
about my whole area of the mineral processing, this is a complete
nightmare and ignorance. I read the articles in different languages and I
am horrified. These "scientists" do not even understand what they
write. Most of them simply rewrite other mistakes and misconceptions.
This is not science. If there are guides, then the processing of
minerals is in a steep peak. The poor Earth Climate will not take away
this ignorance.
This is not my way.
Academic community seeks to score each scientist a label of the country,
scientific school or university: "If a scientist reached any
scientific heights, this is not his merit, but it means that his country
(which of them?) is such a "great" and "wise" (scientific school or
university too). This is not discussed! In their opinion, the personal
merit of the scientist does not exist without THE MERIT OF THE
UNIVERSITY. So the delegations go to establish academic exchanges.
Agreements on intent are signed. They appoint official "teachers" and
"disciples" of this scientific genius, so that these official "teachers"
and "disciples" sign any fraudulent contracts and projects without reading. The lie is multiplied.
But I do not want to participate in this lie!
They do not own our knowledge; they do not have the authorship in our
inventions and our know-how. Several countries and universities try to
attribute our merit to its self. But they do not have anything, except
their positions and rights of the signature in their university and
their country.
We are not serfs! We do not belong to them as the results of our work too!
They can not create anything really working, but only counterfeit and only on paper.
The role of personality in science is strongly underestimated. This is one of the distributed mistakes of our time.
I'm reading the academic scientific articles, I see that they contain a
huge number of errors and deception. I do the comments, but they
persistently rewrite the lie from each other and a lie is multiplying.
I feel myself as "Gelsomino in the country of liars".
We try to follow principles of Real Scientist, one of which is NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE LIE.
I do not want to participate in Lie! Therefore, I do not want to work in an academic environment.
I'm an independent scientist!

63% of Billionaires have invested in iron ore, steel, pellets, ferroalloys, pig iron, recycling scrap.
And only Australian Billionaires are selling iron ore and do not produce anything from iron ore in their country? Why don't Australian Billionaires process ore and smelt steel like other Billionaires do?
Why didn't Australian billionaires order a project to process their own iron ore at numeros research centers and universities of Australian? Australian billionaires don't trust them?
They transport ore to other countries for processing.
Do Australian Billionaires trust more professionals from other countries but not Australian sientificos?
