ASSETS OF AFGHANISTAN
Here is the list of some of the major resources of Afghanistan.
1- Mineralogically it is the richest country on the face of the earth- the best rubies, emerald, spodumene, tourmaline, lapis and many other varieties of precious; semi-precious and rare earth minerals are buried under the tectonic zones of Afghanistan.
Those rare occurrence of geological zones run right through the eastern heartland of Afghanista, from the Balochistan region near the Arabian Sea, all the way up to Pahmeer roof-top where all the major mountain chains of Central Asia colloid physically- that is by itself a very rare geological phenomenon that have taken place only in a handful of locations around the planet.
2- The two largest copper and iron mines of the entire Asia is located in Afghanistan.
3- A great source of harnessing hydro-electric energies from all over the high lands and reservoir and their down pours would be able to irrigate the fertile grounds all over the country. The diverse climates of Afghanistan is also extremely suitable sources for generating huge amount of solar and wind energies- not to mention high tech and industrial usages for rare earth minerals.
4- Great varieties in soil sorts for agricultural products- it has an ideal location and seasonal weather with the right latitude and land elevation for the most varieties of agricultural products than any country I know of. Afghanistan proper is just about the size of Texas ( about 250000 square miles).
5- The country has been always a trading cross road to all major civilizations on its surroundings- Silk Road to China and Tea road to India- the routes have been always operational even during the darkest periods in history of Afghanistan- current political stand offs wth the major powers is a shining example of that.
6- Through out the history, Afghanistan has served a major hub for empires- you can easily examine it through the pages of history.
7- Some of the best scholars of the Islamic Renaissance Period ( late 700’s to early 1209’s came either from the interior or surroundings of Afghanistan.
The above little information is provided for enlightening the misguided souls who are, most often times for political reasons, are down grading the great assets and potentials of Afghanistan.
WE COULD EASILY HARNESS ALL THOSE EXISTING POTENTIALS, IF ONLY AND ONLY THE CRIMINAL PARASITIC FOREIGN FORCES LEAVE US ALONE.
