Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday said that if Pakistan managed to harvest its mineral reserves that valued “trillions of dollars”, it could allow the country to say farewell to global financial institutions like the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

He was delivering his address at the Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum 2024(PMIF)a large number of delegates from foreign countries attended at the high-level event.

The two-day forum, hosted by Pakistan, commenced in Islamabad. Pakistan plans to unveil a unified framework to promote mining and mineral investment opportunities across four provinces: Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) at the high-level event which will be attended by around 300 foreign delegates.

The PMIF25 will serve as a premier platform for global stakeholders to explore investment opportunities in Pakistan's emerging minerals sector and unlock the country's vast mineral potential.

The prime minister highlighted the mining potential across Pakistan.
