North Korea's Rare Minerals worth $6 Trillion. After all, they don't have oil...

"North Korea’s rugged mountains, which cover 85% of the country, also contain huge deposits of coal, iron, gold, copper and over 200 other valuable minerals. For many South Koreans, cheaply selling these resources to the Chinese is yet another cost of a divided peninsula.

While war is always profitable, the massive presence of US corporations in South Korea shows that reconstruction is where the long-term money is found. If Washington and Seoul decide to occupy the North, it would mean that they profit from rebuilding a nation of 25 million people.

North Korea already requires an abundance of modern infrastructure projects and consumer goods, while their workforce offers a 99% literacy rate and desperation for manufacturing jobs which pay less than $3 a day."

Could it be that the U.S. is looking to capitalize on this?
