In 2011, the country's total metallic mineral production was worth P122 billion, up from P112 billion in 2010. Gold production for 2011 alone was valued at P63.14 billion.
The Zambales ophiolite is the major source of chromite ore in the Philippines. The chromitites are concordant cumulates and are associated with distinct chromitite-bearing sequences within the mantle peridotites. Refractory and metallurgical chromite deposits are spatially separated and related to different lithologic associations, which crystallized from …
