and installed heavy machinery at the mining sites in Nangarhar province.
The sources have also added that phones are banned and locals are searched and monitored by the groups near the mines.
The report also adds that the majority of talc extracted from Nangarhar mines are smuggled across to Pakistain at the Torkham border where it can eventually be shipped out to other markets.
Nick Donovan, a campaign director at Global Witness, has said "The vast majority of minerals from krazed killer-controlled mines in Nangarhar openly goes through government-held territory on the main roads to Pakistain."
"It is all but certain that individuals and companies in China, Europe
...also known as Moslem Lebensraum...and the U.S. are effectively, if inadvertently, funding krazed killer groups," Donovan added.
Qadeer Khan Mutfi, a front man for the ministry of mines and petroleum of Afghanistan quoted in the report said the government has shut down at least a hundred illegal mines in the past year.
