About The Underground Wealth Of Nations: On The
Silver mining was a capitalist business long before the supposed origin of modern capitalism Hundreds of years before a sixteenth‑century crisis in European agriculture led to the origins of capital, investment, and finance, the silver mining industry exhibited many of the features of modern capitalism.

Jeannette Graulau argues that mining preceded agriculture as the first true capitalist enterprise of the modern world.
