2025 Presidential Mineral Industry Environmental Award
The PMIEA stands as the highest recognition granted to mineral exploration, mining, and mineral processing companies, honoring those that demonstrate exceptional performance and unwavering commitment to safety and health, environmental stewardship, and community development.
“To mine without honoring the environment is to abandon a sacred duty. To mine without prioritizing safety is to betray the very people whose labor sustains our nation.” Representative Mauricio Domogan, Lone District of Baguio City, during his keynote speech on the PMIEA 2025
