Aplicación de opciones reales en decisiones de inversión del sector minero que emplee técnicas como simulación de Montecarlo, el proceso de Ornstein Uhlebeck y metodologías de cálculo de la volatilidad implícita
(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Eljach Ortega, Fredys; Sánchez Ribero, Gustavo Alberto
This study analyzes the applicability of real options in the mining industry, evaluating the financial viability of a nickel production project for batteries in Colombia. Traditional methodologies such as net present value and probabilistic cash flow projection using the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process for nickel price estimation will be employed, and probability distributions for key variables in the expected returns will be set. The Copeland and Antikarov methodology will be used to calculate the implied volatility, as well as the resulting mean-reversion process and market volatilities of similar projects. Real options will complement the analysis, determining the additional value of the growth project through call options valued with binomial trees and simulating the probability of success with Monte Carlo. Finally, the impact of real options on project valuation in the mining industry will be assessed.
