Pakistan China cooperation in the mineral sector has entered a new phase with the launch of the Pak China E Mining Platform, a digital initiative designed to modernize Pakistan\u2019s mining industry and attract large scale foreign investment.<\/p>\n
The platform aims to improve transparency, efficiency, and access to information, making it easier for local and international investors to explore mining opportunities across Pakistan.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the launch ceremony, Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal said the new platform has the potential to attract more than 10 billion dollars in foreign investment.<\/p>\n
He explained that this initiative aligns with Pakistan\u2019s broader strategy to shift the China Pakistan Economic Corridor into its next phase, which focuses on production, exports, and industrial development rather than infrastructure alone.<\/p>\n
