Abstract :
In this paper, a combined optimal stopping and stochastic control model of the exploration of exhaustible resources has been established with the aim to maximize the present value of the sum of the net profit of extraction and the value of the remaining resources at the stopping time τ* by the assumption that the price of resource following the geometric Brownian motion and the reserve following a Levy process with jump. The optimal stopping time and optimal control of a special case is given.
