November 13, 2026 • 29 minutes ago •

ISLAMABAD: The Government of Pakistan has initiated a comprehensive geological mapping program aimed at exploring valuable minerals, including gold, copper, and lithium, to bolster the nation’s resource management and economic growth.

Ali Parvez, the Minister for Minerals, announced the launch during a press briefing on Tuesday, emphasizing the program’s significance in identifying and harnessing the country’s mineral wealth. He stated, “This initiative is crucial for our economic development and will help attract foreign investment in the mining sector.” The program will utilize advanced geological techniques to map mineral deposits across various regions of Pakistan.

This initiative is expected to have far-reaching implications for Pakistan’s economy, potentially reducing reliance on imports and enhancing local production capabilities. The discovery of significant mineral resources could lead to job creation and increased revenue for the government, thereby improving the overall economic landscape.

Moving forward, the government plans to collaborate with international geological experts and institutions to ensure the program’s success. Further announcements regarding partnerships and specific timelines for the mapping activities are anticipated in the coming weeks.
