[[File:Mining_countries.png|left|150px]] According to [http://www.fraserinstitute.org/research-news/display.aspx?id=19401 The Fraser Institute] the Annual Survey of Mining Companies was sent to approximately 4,100 exploration, development, and other  mining-related companies world-wide. The survey represents responses  from 742 of those companies, which has provided sufficient data to evaluate 96 jurisdictions.The survey responses have been tallied  to rank provinces, states, and countries according to the extent that  public policy factors encourage or discourage investment. '''Finland had  the highest Policy Potential Index (PPI)''' score of 95.5. Along with  Finland, the top 10 ranked jurisdictions are Sweden, Alberta, New  Brunswick, Wyoming, Ireland, Nevada, Yukon, Utah, and Norway. The 10  least attractive jurisdictions for investment based on the PPI rankings  are (starting with the worst): Indonesia, Vietnam, Venezuela, DRC  (Congo), Kyrgyzstan, Zimbabwe, Bolivia, Guatemala, Philippines, and  Greece.For the first time since 2006/2007, no Canadian  jurisdiction ranked first in the survey. Both Quebec and Saskatchewan  dropped out of the top 10 in the rankings, to 11th and 13th  respectively.The companies participating in the survey reported exploration spending of US$6.2 billion in 2012.
