How The Con is helping investors

David English

The team behind The Con has created something special. It's engaging, informative, and accessible - an incredible asset for anyone looking to understand mining investing!

Jenn Diver

The Con's narrator is great at breaking down complex topics. The course structure made it easy to learn at my own pace.

Michael Sheenan

I binged [...the first 12 episodes] of The Con and I'm hooked. It's an absolute must-watch for anyone interested in mining investing. Can't wait for th next episode to be released!

@JoellieBop123

I can't even with The Con! 😆 It's like the Netflix of mining investing - addictive, bingeable, and so damn informative! 📺 Trust me, you need this in your life rn! 🙌

Grant Thornton

The Con is hands-down the best free educational resource for mining investors. The logical flow of the episodes and the high-quality visuals make learning a breeze. Actually feel like I know what I'm doing now even if geology and metallurgy are beyond my evaluation skillset.

Olivia Dink

Thanks to The Con, I've gone from feeling overwhelmed by mining investing to having - I hope - a solid grasp of the key factors. The episode transcripts are a helpful reference.

Ben Canter

The Con is my secret weapon for mining company analysis. The episodes flow together seamlessly, and the graphics make complex ideas easy to grasp (though sometimes I find myself transfixed wondering how they all fit in the space, then have to rewind to take in the real knowledge being imparted).

Emmanuel Somart

If you're serious about understanding mining investments, you need The Con in your life. I have some experience in this field and so am not a total novice, but starting out from basic principles was a nice recap for me, and the course steps up gradually to even cover advanced topics in an approachable way.

Adam Langridge

The narrator's delivery and relatable examples keep me engaged on The Con. The pacing is perfect for learning at my own speed, though some of the later episodes on Geology and Resources required me to listed a few times as there's so much information in them. Great overview of the mining space.

@JamesWade06

The Con is straight-up FIRE! 🔥🔥🔥 If you wanna level up your mining game, you gotta get on this ASAP!

John Michael

As someone fairly new to mining investing, The Con has been my go-to resource. It pairs perfectly with Crux Investor's other channels for a comprehensive education. Also just found Analyst's Notes which is a great way to see The Con's principles in action when evaluating a company for potential investment.

@XanderLing

Holy crap, The Con is INSANE! 🔥 The visuals, the explanations, the free access - it's like having a mining investing guru right in your pocket! 📱

Pim Corvus

GREAT. FREE. CONTENT. What's the catch Crux? [ Crux Ed: "There is no catch Pim, we just want to help investors like you make better informed decisions when it comes to this sector, by applying your own comprehensive due diligence based on sound mining investment principles. Good luck!"]

John Hammer

The Con's explanations of technical concepts are so clear, and the illustrations are top-notch. Having episode transcripts is a great bonus for reviewing key points. Looking forward to the Mining Methods episodes.
