Gold and Copper Discovered in Chagai, Balochistan — A Milestone for Pakistan’s Economy
Balochistan, long known for its untapped natural wealth and underserved communities, is once again in the spotlight.
National Resources Limited (NRL) has discovered significant gold and copper deposits in the Tang Khor area of Chagai, Balochistan — a major step forward for both Pakistan’s economy and the local people of the region.
Discovery Details
This important announcement was made at the Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum 2025, where NRL shared key findings from its initial exploration phase.
- A total of 13 successful drill holes have been completed in Tang Khor.
- The drilling revealed strong mineralized zones near the surface, making the site economically viable for mining.
- Advanced drilling is scheduled for May 2025, aiming to assess the full extent of the resource.
- A comprehensive technical report is expected by the end of the year, followed by feasibility studies and further exploration.
This discovery reflects not just geological success, but strategic planning and modern exploration techniques brought into Pakistan’s mineral sector.
A New Chapter for the People of Balochistan
Balochistan has long been rich in natural resources, yet its people have remained on the margins of progress.
NRL’s policy of hiring over 90% local workers is a transformative approach, ensuring that the economic benefits directly impact local communities.
This project is more than mining — it’s about job creation, skill development, and socio-economic upliftment for the people of Balochistan.
Strengthening Pakistan’s Economy
Gold and copper are globally strategic minerals:
- Gold adds to national reserves and economic security.
- Copper is critical for modern industry, construction, renewable energy, and electronics.
With these new deposits, Pakistan has a chance to boost its exports, reduce trade deficits, and attract foreign investment into its mineral sector.
This also sends a powerful message to global investors: Pakistan is open for responsible and resource-rich mining ventures.
Public-Private Partnerships on the Horizon
NRL has expressed its intention to collaborate further with government institutions and private stakeholders for future mineral exploration initiatives.
Such partnerships could open the door to advanced technologies, infrastructure development, and regional connectivity in Balochistan — helping bridge the gap between the region’s potential and its reality.
A Message for Youth and Skilled Workers
For young Pakistanis — especially in Balochistan — this is an opportunity to prepare for the future.
Whether you are skilled in driving, welding, electrical work, machinery, or general labor, or you’re ready to learn through training, this discovery opens doors to employment, income stability, and dignity.
Conclusion: A Future of Hope, Progress, and National Pride
This discovery of gold and copper in Chagai is more than a geological success — it is a symbol of national progress and regional inclusion.
It brings hope for a self-reliant Pakistan, where natural resources are developed for the benefit of its own people.
