LAHORE: The Mines and Minerals Department Punjab and Nespak have joined hands for the Attock Placer Gold Project, marking a significant milestone in the country’s mining sector.

Nespak Managing Director Zargham Eshaq Khan Thursday stated that the undertaking of the Attock Placer Gold Deposits Project is a significant development in the mineral sector. In this regard, Nespak has signed a contract for “Consultancy services for preparing bidding documents and transaction advisory services for nine placer gold blocks along River Indus in district Attock.”

Pakistan is endowed with abundant mineral resources, including construction materials, industrial minerals, and precious metals, which hold immense potential for driving the country’s economic growth. Properly addressing the challenges and capitalising on opportunities in this sector can position Pakistan as a key player in the global mining industry.

Nespak has long been offering engineering services across various sectors. With a strong focus on social responsibility and an international presence, Nespak has cemented its reputation as a premier engineering consulting firm. Recognising the significance of the mining sector, Nespak has undertaken notable projects such as construction material sources and mineral development potential in Azad Jammu and Kashmir, delineation of positive and negative mining areas for cement plants in the salt range (Punjab Mines and Minerals Department) and lead-zinc-barite exploration project in Khuzdar, Balochistan in collaboration with Bolan Mining Enterprises (BME) and the Government of Balochistan.
