Valuation of natural resources and their cost

Swiss Appraisal uses cutting-edge methods for natural resource valuation.

Swiss Appraisal uses a term "level of natural resource supply". This is the level of natural resources supply according to the ratio of available natural resources to the natural resources used. This indicator is based on the number of possible years of natural resource consumption or natural resource stock per capita. This indicator is influenced by the amount of natural resources of the region and the degree of its extraction.

Swiss Appraisal's natural resource valuation includes analyses of all factors and builds on the differences between regions in the level of natural resources supply. Taking into account:

• The amount of the natural resource
• Potential and existing reserves
• Quality, composition and properties of the natural resource
• Usage conditions
• Mode of occurrence
• Thickness of the subject layer
• Production
• Commercial potential
• And other significant details
