Abstract: Abstract Valuation of mineral resources is an exclusive activity of paramount importance that has its influence in managing the economics of the minerals produced in the country. Unlike determining the values of other product entities, valuation of minerals has its uniqueness in terms of methodologies and approaches that are adopted. There are many variables that are, directly or indirectly, associated with the valuation process. Historically, attempts were made to include valuation of mineral resources into national accounts. There are three different approaches to valuation of mineral resources. In the present paper, an attempt has been made to describe the classification of valuation models, different methods of mineral valuation, and preferred methodology adopted for the Indian mineral resources.
