“The information provided in the chapters above is a valuable resource, giving the observant reader plenty of food for thought and analysis. … this book will be a great addition to a library of economic geologists or mining companies interested in the mineral potential of Mongolia. … information provided by the book is still a valuable resource for all economic geologists. For this reason, I recommend this book for purchase by members of the Society of Economic Geologists … .” (Sergei Diakov, Economic Geology, Vol. 116 (6), 2021)
