Abstract: This study is compared Mongolian public perceptions of two mining companies, Erdenet Mining Corporation (EMC) and Oyu Tolgoi (OT) which are the main players in the Mongolian mining industry. Two interrelated areas key drivers of Mongolian public opinion regarding natural resource development: First, public opinion that strongly supports government ownership; a firm belief that the lands and resources of Mongolia belong to the Mongolian people. The history of government ownership and control of the economy in Mongolia's socialist past is the ideological manifestation of this belief. Secondly, a fear of foreign domination (Damdinnyam, 2015), particularly by developed countries; The priorities of OT’s foreign investors are practically and ideologically opposed to those of the Mongolian public and represent a break from Mongolia’s socialist past. The public fears that the investing companies do not concern about the long-term impact of mining on Mongolia, especially the longterm sustainability and development of infrastructure and the environment. These are ideas that Mongolian people hold and assume that others share
