摘要
Mineral assets consistently trade at market values greater than their discounted cash flow (DCF) values. One explanation is that DCF analysis does not and cannot incorporate the asset value generated by asset management under uncertainty. This paper surveys the attempts to empirically quantify the ''option premium'' associated with optimal mineral asset management. The option premium appears to explain at most half of the observed gap between DCF value and marker value, and adds at most 3 percent to a mineral asset's gross worth. Asset management option premiums therefore harle only a second-order impact on mineral asset pricing.
