The Bulawan mine ceased operations in April 2002.
Work at the mine at present primarily involves rehabilitation of mine areas and
reforestation, maintenance of the tailings pond and erosion control. Plant and
equipment have been stored properly and are being disposed of as opportunities
arise. Current care and maintenance cost
have been substantially reduced as compared to the previous years.
