It spearheaded a consolidation and expansion of gold mines as well as the diversification in other mineral products like copper, chromite and lime. Until the late 1980s, Benguet Corporation was known as the biggest gold mining company in the Philippines and the 16th largest in the world. Similarly, it's chromite operation in Masinloc, known internationally as "Masinloc Ore", and its highly profitable Dizon Copper Gold operation in San Marcelino, Zambales were the largest in the country.
The inspiring history of the company reveals a potent organization with a distinct capability to overcome and survive extremely difficult circumstances, such as World War II, countless natural disasters, political upheavals and cyclical economic conditions. Over the past 100 years, Benguet has built up its professional reputation as the colossus of Philippine mining. |
