While estimates vary, it is conservatively
projected that for every basic job in the mining
company about four (4) ancillary and indirect jobs
may be generated in the upstream and
downstream sectors.
The emergence of small enterprises/ businesses
in the host and neighboring communities due to
the presence of mining operations in the area,
and the livelihood projects supported by the
mining companies, which generate both
employment and income, cannot be discounted.
These economic activities will naturally stimulate
the local economy.
