Long-term mine extension through 2037 signals confidence in gold-copper production and sustained supply from a major global producer

"A $1.9-billion investment is expected to extend operations at the Didipio Gold-Copper Mine in Northern Luzon through 2037, with government and company officials saying the project will focus on job retention, local economic growth and safer mining."

"The goal, according to both the company and the government, is to balance resource development with environmental management. OGP executives also said that the extended operation will incorporate practices intended to minimize environmental footprint across the mine site and surrounding areas."
