The Mines and Geosciences Bureau of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources -10 today served a cease and desist order issued earlier against illegal mining operators in Gango, Libona, Bukidnon, a bureau official told MindaNews.
Relampagos also warned about the common tailings pond in the area. In a letter to BENRO chief Samuel Cadavos dated Aug. 12, he said they found spillage of effluents containing mercury and cyanide and sediments from the pond resulting in a “very high total suspended solids.”
