According to Amac News: Homayoun Afghan, spokesman for the ministry, said that an investment worth $350 million has been made in the Samti gold mine in Takhar province of the country.
He added that this measure is part of the government’s plans to exploit the country’s natural resources and create the necessary infrastructure in the field of mining.
According to the Ministry of Mines and Petroleum of Afghanistan, these projects can not only contribute to the country’s economic development, but also have a direct impact on creating job opportunities, increasing national incomes, and improving the livelihoods of people in mining areas.
The Samti gold mine in Takhar, as one of the most important gold mines in Afghanistan, has rich reserves and it is expected that the extraction of this mine can make a significant contribution to increasing the country's exports and foreign exchange earnings.
The Afghan Ministry of Mines has also emphasized that all activities related to these projects will be carried out under strict supervision to ensure that environmental criteria and international standards are met.
In addition, the spokesman for the Afghan Ministry of Mines stated that the transfer of mines to domestic and foreign companies will pave the way for the transfer of knowledge and technology into the country.
It is said that the transfer of these mines and the start of large investments can be an important step towards achieving the Afghan government's great goal of turning mines into the country's economic driving force.
However, the success of these projects depends on efficient management, transparency in contracts, and close cooperation between the government and the implementing companies.
Afghanistan is in the spotlight of international investors due to its rich mineral resources, including gold, copper, iron, and precious stones.
It is expected that with the continuation of such projects, the country will be able to consolidate its position in global markets and improve the economic and social conditions of the people through the development of mines.
