In 1978/79 gold and copper depoits were found. Presently, Codelco, is developing the mine for exploration purpose. No considerable work is done to explore this mine deeply. yeh pakistan has sold 50% of the gold mine to australia. it is a great loss to Pakistan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reko_Diq
Reko Diq is a small town in Chagai District, Balochistan . World's largest Gold and Copper reserves are found in Reko Diq.
Tethyan
Copper of Australia has taken the contract to develop this mine.
Barrick Gold Corporation of Canada and Antofagasta of Chile have a
joint-ownership of the copper-gold deposit at Reko Diq.
The Reko
Diq deposit is being explored by Tethyan Copper Company Pty Ltd (75%)
and the (BDA) Balochistan Development Authority (25%). Tethyan Copper
Company is held jointly (50:50) by Barrick Gold Corporation and
Antofagasta Minerals.
Currently the deposit is at scoping / pre
feasibility stage. It is a world class copper / gold porphyry style
deposit, typical of the tethyan belt.
It has been sold to the
Zionist controlled regimes by the Pakistani Government under the
dictator at a price of $21 billion. Rough estimates suggest that the
gold and copper at the surface accounts for $65 billion worth of
deposits.
Tell me how many of us know about it ...remember the total debt on Pakistani Nation is $38b,
Now the question is why Pakistani media and Government is silent about it? Why it is kept secret from Pakistani Nation?
