The Department of Information and Culture of the acting government of Afghanistan in Nuristan province of this country announced that it has sold 'beruj' stone extracted from Bargmatal district of Nuristan province worth more than 8 million afghanis.


According to Amac News: Citing Bakhtar State News Agency, this is the first time that beruj leaf metal stones are sold through an official auction.
This government media has not mentioned the exact amount of stones sold by the local officials of Nuristan.
As one of the provinces with rich mineral resources, especially precious stones such as beruj, Nuristan has a significant capacity to extract and trade these resources.
beruj precious stones can be seen in all parts of Nuristan province, the largest mine of which is in Parun, the center of this province, Doab, Wami, Payin and Kolin.
The caretaker government of Afghanistan announces the sale of these mineral resources while the lack of transparency and accurate reporting of how to extract and use their revenues is one of the main challenges of Afghanistan's mine management.
