                    [Title] => Revival of mining industry urged
                    [Summary] => Trade and Industry Secretary Cesar V. Purisima yesterday reiterated his call for the revival of the mining industry. "The revival of the mining industry will definitely spur the development of the country’s economy," Purisima said.


Adding that "in the next five years we can expect to attract $3.2 billion in investments, export some $1.2-billion worth of minerals annually and generate P21 billion in tax revenues."

According to Purisima, mining projects would result in employment for 6,000 workers and create 36,000 indirect jobs.
