Federal Minister Jam Kamal Khan highlighted vast mining potential in Pakistan, with a special emphasis on Balochistan’s untapped resources and opportunities where small scale mining and processing can be empowered.

In addition to discussing investment opportunities, the Minister emphasized the importance of adopting a green framework and the transfer of technology to ensure sustainable development in the mining and cement sectors under Pakistan Denmark Green Framework Engagement, which will also help in complying with EU’s Green Deal related regulations like Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). Mr. Mikko Keto, CEO of FLSmidth, acknowledged government efforts to protect and promote foreign investment and expressed a strong desire to increase investment, particularly in the mining sector. He also highlighted the company’s commitment to upskilling and training the local workforce, including the youth, to ensure that the benefits of these investments are widely shared within the community.
