[Peace-discuss] Fw: Afghanistan has $1 Trillion in mineral deposits (DN! Monday, June 14, 2010)

[Ron Szoke]

Pertinent paragraph from James Risen piece in today's NYT:

" At the same time, American officials fear resource-hungry China will try 
to dominate the development of Afghanistan’s mineral wealth, which could 
upset the United States, given its heavy investment in the region. After 
winning the bid for its Aynak copper mine in Logar Province, China clearly 
wants more, American officials said."
