While 'mount' is traditionally used to mount a file system on a raw storage device, Linux has extended it to allow mounting a directory on a directory and a file on a file.
It isn't much different than 'normal' usage,
man mount
will give the details.
And if you don't have a full Linux distribution (with the documentation installed) -
Your favorite web-search application will recognize the:
man mount
as a search phrase.
