采矿经济学课程在欧洲讲授了两个多世纪,在美国也差不多讲授了一个世纪。这些课程是工程经济学在矿业中的变体,是由矿产工程系开设的。在20世纪30年代,矿物经济学首先出现于美国的各矿业学院。该学科超出了矿床和矿山的范畴,它一般地考察矿物资源的经济问题,并特殊地考察诸多个别的矿物工业经济问题。1947年,美国授予了第一批矿物经济学学位。有些采矿工程师和地质工程师专攻采矿经济学,然而很少被纳入单独的的学位计划。与此相反,在美国和其他几个国家,采矿系或矿业学院的研究生却将经济学作为自己的学习内容。然后,他们撰写采矿经济学题目的毕业论文或学位论文。
Mining Economics taught in Europe for more than two centuries, and nearly a century in the United States. These courses are a variation of engineering economics in mining and are offered by the Department of Mines and Engineering. In the 1930s, mineral economics first appeared in various mining institutes in the United States. The discipline goes beyond the areas of deposits and mines, examines the economic aspects of mineral resources in general, and examines in particular the many individual economic problems of the mineral industry. In 1947, the United States awarded the first degree in mineral economics. Some mining engineers and geotechnical engineers specialize in mining economics, however seldom are included in separate degree programs. In contrast, in the United States and several other countries, graduate students in the mining or mining colleges regard economics as their own learning content. Then they wrote a dissertation or dissertation about mining economics.
