Pakistan Seeks Foreign Investment in Mining at PMIF25

Pakistan is preparing to showcase its mineral wealth at the Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum 2025 (#PMIF25), with Federal Minister for Energy (Petroleum Division), Ali Pervaiz Malik, briefing foreign ambassadors regarding the promotional event.

Speaking at the Oil & Gas Development Company Limited – Official Page (OGDCL) headquarters, Malik extended an open invitation for international investors to tap into the country’s vast, underutilized resources waiting to be unearthed.

Set for April 8-9 at Islamabad’s Jinnah Convention Centre, the forum will serve as a networking opportunity as well as a launchpad for serious investment. Ministers, corporate leaders and policymakers from around the world are expected to participate, along with panel discussions on responsible mining, policy upgrades, and energy transitions. The exhibition also features Pakistan’s mineral assets and latest mining tech.

Envoys from Saudi Arabia, China, the U.S., Canada, and beyond attended the briefing, indicating global interest. The highlight will be the anticipated unveiling of Pakistan’s National Mineral Harmonization Framework, designed to streamline policies and attract foreign capital. With regulatory reforms and a mineral-rich landscape, Pakistan is positioning itself as a prime destination for large-scale mining investments to dig in – literally.
