Talk:Mining in Afghanistan

FALSE ASSERTION

The article is demonstrably false in its assertion that mineral deposits were unexplored prior to 2006. [1] It smells of bias. 85.164.68.204 (talk) 12:07, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Well, this appears to have been corrected.HammerFilmFan (talk) 14:12, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

PROBLEMS

Lack of references in the article - many instances of bad grammar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.116.29.149 (talk) 16:42, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

Looking at the article, there seems to be many references. If the grammar needs correcting, DIY or point it out.HammerFilmFan (talk) 14:12, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

I think this article lacks a section that could showing the reality of containing these minerals. The country is facing struggles in exploiting them since it's attracting Afghan warlords and foreign countries to occupy it.
