SMI has formally launched its Community Information Resource Center located inside the compound of The Farm at Carpenter Hill, Koronadal City, last August 15, 2012. It was attended by SMI officials and stakeholders, local government officials from the province of South Cotabato headed by Hon. Gov. Arthur Y. Pingoy, Jr. and Australian Ambassador to the Philippines William Thomas Ross Tweddell.

With its touch-screens and 3D technology, SMI's Community Information Resource Center will not only help present informations about the Tampakan Copper-Gold Project it will also educate its stakeholders.

So what if the government will finally grant SMI a permit and start the operation of the SMI Tampakan Copper-Gold Project? Here's a short video of a presentation during the launching of SMI's Community Information Resource Center.
this is great blog post on the advantages of mining.. thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteIt would be good for having resources like this as it can help promote awareness on mining and other stuffs.
ReplyDeleteCool, very high-tech. This might be a part of school trips in the near future since it's open to the public :3
ReplyDeleteNice presentation, but it didn't mention about where they are going to dump the sand (waste) after extracting the gold and copper in it and hope they will explain too if the 3 agents that they are going to use has no adverse effect on humans if in case it will leak after 20 years of operations. Nevertheless, thanks for this info =)
ReplyDeleteWow! Another great leap in the Filipino community! Good to know that innovation is already in place in other parts of our country. The youth will surely benefit from this because of larger and clearer images.
ReplyDeleteWow! Congrats Koronadal City. Another great news from Mindanao.
ReplyDeleteSorry for my cynicism, but I wonder just how much will the local Filipino community really benefit from this project, considering that it looks like that it's foreign-owned.
ReplyDeleteIndeed a great news for Cotabato. I hope locals can benefit from this project.
ReplyDeleteWhew! A big thanks now that it will be much easier to coordinate and communicate with the concerns for that community! :)

ReplyDeletethis is what we call doing corporate social responsibility but I hope they do more than just give information but will have tangible and life changing projects for the people in this area and the province as a whole.
