Afghanistan: Mining Their Way out of War (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781480889095)

Afghanistan has been at war for decades. No matter who the resilient Afghans are fighting, they are determined to protect their beloved country. Now years after American troops began arriving, the war on terror is still being carried out by the US military.

It is the summer of 2020 and renowned geologists Tom Vance and Rachel Collins have been working in Seoul, South Korea, monitoring the Ring of Fire. But all of that is about to change when an official at the state department asks Tom and Rachel to travel to Afghanistan to gather mineral samples and determine if it is viable to set up mining operations there. When Tom and Rachel arrive, the country is still plagued by battles. But before large scale mining operations can begin, Tom and Rachel must uncover hidden plans and seek justice for corrupt US mining executives who desire a much different outcome for themselves, their company, and the Afghan people.

Afghanistan continues the tale of two energetic geologists as they arrive in Afghanistan to launch mining operations they hope will bring positive change and help the war-weary country become financially stable.
