The mining industry is cyclical, and the broader trends in the sector are dependent on the performance of the economy. The sector consists of companies engaged in the exploration, extraction and processing of important minerals and ores, industrial and construction metals, precious metals, energy materials and fertilizers. 

Different metals are key to the smooth running of the economy. During the COVID-19 outbreak, several mining companies had to shut down their operations for the period. The mining stocks showed a peculiar characteristic that their prices moved in direct correlation with the severity of the pandemic. Relaxation of COVID-19 pandemic related restrictions and rising vaccination rates have been pivotal in the recent resumption of mining operations. Here is a detailed review of the investment prospect in two AIM-listed mining stocks - Greatland Gold and Eurasia Mining.
