The purpose of the article is to present and evaluate the investment management of enterprises from the People's Republic of China in the Afghan mining sector in the broader economic and strategic context. It presents the causes, circumstances, barriers and prospects for the implementation of investments in the extraction of Afghan copper, energy raw materials and other minerals. So far, the largest investments in Afghanistan have been made by large state-owned enterprises, including Metallurgical Corporation of China and China National Petroleum Corporation. The success of their investments is currently a big question mark, and the involvement of other Chinese enterprises in the Afghan mining sector and other segments of the economy depends on this. The research problem is included in the question of the role of Chinese investments in the Afghan mining industry in Beijing's policy towards that country and neighboring regions of Asia.
