“To be Responsible is to be sustainable, and to be sustainable is to embrace policies that reflect the best practices in the industry”
The current policy direction of the Philippine government in mining has been divided clearly into two aspects. RESPONSIBLE MINING points to the conscientious exploitation and use of mineral resources with an intention to embrace legal, right, ethical, moral, economically, and socially acceptable practices. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT is ensuring the productivity of the mineral hub is not sacrificed where the interest and safety of nature and its people-dependents are more important than gains.
