Mongolia has experienced an astonishing economic transformation from an agricultural economy to a booming commodity-driven economy due to its large mining sector. Mining has been the key engine of Mongolia's economic growth, with GDP growth rates around 17% in recent years.

The government plans to consolidate its ownership of strategic deposits, increase processing of minerals domestically, and focus more on value-added industries after 2015 to sustain economic growth. Recent policy discussions have focused on increasing environmental protections, local participation, and transparency around mining activities.

This document provides an introduction to Rust and discusses its memory safety features through ownership and borrowing rules. It explains that Rust avoids garbage collection and is memory safe by enforcing that references and mutable references cannot be held simultaneously. This prevents issues like use-after-free and iterator invalidation. The ownership system transfers control of values during assignment and function calls. Borrowing allows sharing references while a value is valid. The compiler enforces rules that any borrow must not outlive the owner and there can only be one mutable reference at a time.
