The information about the Taliban’s mining sector revenue shared by @assemmayar1 is interesting, though it remains to be confirmed and verified. The sharp rise in the Taliban’s mining revenues to $360 million in 2024, excluding income from gold mines, suggests that the total could be even higher in 2025. Including gold mining revenue would further increase this figure. Despite claiming control over Afghanistan’s economy by maintaining the value of the AFN currency and keeping inflation low, the Taliban do not publicly disclose their income and expenditures. The most recent comparable document is the National Budget document for the first quarter of 2022, available on the Ministry of Finance's website.
