This virtual event will feature the 17cÆð²ÝÊÓÆµ study “Implications of Lifting the Open-Pit Mining Ban in the Philippines” by 17cÆð²ÝÊÓÆµ consultant Engr. Ludwig H. Pascual, Senior Research Fellow Sonny N. Domingo, and Research Specialist Arvie Joy A. Manejar.
The study investigated the implications of lifting the open-pit mining method, which was done on the premise that revitalizing the mining industry can contribute to the country’s post-pandemic economic growth. It reviewed the rationale behind opposing views on open-pit mining, highlighting ecological concerns, and proposed strategies for sustainability and optimized benefits for the industry.
