Content: Experts feel that it is high time the country shifted its focus onto the mining of commodities such as copper, iron, marble and phosphate that are available in plenty in Iraq’s Kurdistan region. Mining of these commodities will indeed boost the country’s economy that totally depends on its oil sector. With increase in the production of mineral commodities, development of new mining projects, attracting foreign investments, implementing new reforms and uprooting corruption, Iraq thus hopes to see a positive change in its mining sector in the near future.
