The new discovery of mining deposits in Afghanistan could change the course of Afghanistan. Around $1 trillion mineral deposits were found in the grounds of Afghanistan recently. The mineral deposits were tapped by the US officials and some geologists from US. Afghanistan has many minerals deposits, but such a large discovery is done for the first time. The mineral deposits contain many minerals and lithium an important industrial metal. Lithium is used in many laptops and mobile phones as a batteries, so Afghanistan could be called as a “Saudi Arabia of lithium” as per as the Pentagon memo.

One day Afghanistan could turn into a crucial mining centre for the whole world. Developing one of a crucial mining center of the world Afghanistan will take many years to do. The mineral deposits in the Afghanistan will be able to bring huge investment into the country. The mines will become profitable only after some years but the potential will attract much new investment.

The mining of some huge minerals like copper, iron, cobalt gold and lithium could bring many job opportunities to the people. Providing people with many new job opportunities will help to increase the economy of Afghanistan. The job opportunities created in Afghanistan would distract the generations from war and narcotics tracking. The minerals would bring a huge change in the war bedraggled country like Afghanistan officials said.
