About
Indophil Resources
The
Tampakan copper and gold deposit, located in southern Mindanao
and discovered in 1992, is rapidly proving itself not only as
world class but also as the flagship to minerals development in
the Philippines .
The
Tampakan project, which puts the Philippines on the world map
for minerals discovery and development, is nearing completion of
the study process. It is poised to move into construction and
production. But what will the Tampakan project mean to minerals
development in the Philippines , and what will it bring to the
Philippine and regional economy, to employment and to the local
supply or goods and services during the construction and
operational phases.
