Small-scale miners are now tasked with seeking clean technologies for extracting gold from ore once they are cleared to operate the 64-hectare “Minahang Bayan” (people’s mine) that was approved by the Provincial Mining and Regulatory Board (PMRB) in Itogon town, Benguet province.
The PMRB guidelines for mining contract applications, which were expected to be approved next week, ban the use of toxic chemicals such as cyanide.
