Pakistan discovers gold reserves worth 600 billion PKR

In another miracle, massive reserves of gold have been discovered in Pakistan, which is estimated at 600 billion rupees. The find is expected to rejuvenate the economy of the country, which is struggling at the moment, and give a much-needed lift to its stature in international resource exports.

With this find in a region unexplored hitherto, tremendous hope seems to have hit economic and mining sectors. Experts are optimistic about the discovery because such a treasure, known in the world, could transform the financial outlook of Pakistan.

However, there are concerns about their effective management and extraction. In fact, there is a long-standing history of problems in mineral-rich regions in Pakistan, where the key problems are lack of infrastructure, lack of modern technology, and governance issues. Industry experts stress here on the moves towards making it more transparent in terms of policies so that these reserves benefit the country as a whole.

The discovery of gold reserves in Pakistan has been compared with the very rich natural resource countries of the world and was further described as “a potential major player in global mining” by experts. The international markets are now watching very closely how Pakistan will utilize this new-found wealth.

While waiting for more to come, this discovery marks a milestone for Pakistan to a bright future in economic and resource management strategies.
