Philippines: The Tampakan Copper And Gold Project: Mine For Whom?

What the company has not indicated and stated, however, are how much total revenues it will generate from the mining operations, how much will go to the coffers of the government aside from the excise tax, and where the ore deposits and their valued added products will end up. It also has not disclosed how much its mining activities will cost the environment and the communities around the site and all areas that will be affected by the company’s operations. These do not even include the attendant social costs.
