quick decision can be made before December 1, 2013
2. 50-MW Magnetic Flux Power Plant
Can produce power saleable to the national grid, without any fuel cost
Project is estimated to cost PhP5.0 Billion, or approximately USD116.0 Million
Because of financial structure that shares revenues with investors, IRR is only 16% per annum over a 10-year period, but
with positive projected cashflows at all times for servicing of loans
Technology is new and world-class, and internationally patented
Technology is not available for transfer, as the project is limited only to a power plant whose output will be bought totally by
the national grid
Technology will be subjected to a public test by the National Power Corporation (NPC) before the end of the year; thereafter, the possibilities for its application, like for water desalination and transport, including powering of boats and airplanes
3. 142-MW Hydro Power Plant in the Bugkalot Area
Has complete hydrological studies
Requires PhP50.0 Million, or approximately USD1.2 Million to complete the engineering and feasibility studies
Requires approximately USD426.0 Million to commission the project, which may take 3 years to build
142-MW hydro power will be derived from the tributaries from the Casecnan Multi- Purpose Dam (600-MW power cum irrigation)
Hydro power normally has capital recovery of about ten (10) years, and with project life extending as long as 50 years,
assuming that reforestation is maintained in the watersheds
D. MINING PROJECTS
1. Lumiere Mining (Formerly Dizon Mines) in Zambales
Operated for 19 years by Benguet Consolidated for copper and gold
Abandoned after the Mt. Pinatubo eruption
Now available for a joint venture arrangement, with Dizon retaining only 40%
Has varying capital requirements ranging from USD50.0 to USD100.0 Million
On a modest approach, developer may opt to start with just the tailings for gold, with about 130 million tons, meanwhile
that confirmatory drills are made of about 300 drill holes done by Benguet and Nippon Mining in the area
Dizon Mines is reputed to have one of the best copper and gold potentials in the country because of reliability of data
showing good reserves for both copper and gold
2. San Mauricio Mining in Panganiban, Camarines Sur
Gold and silver mine
Under the control of Jun Marcelo
Available either for purchase or joint venture arrangement
Of still undetermined terms and conditions
San Mauricio claims to have one of the highest gold contents at 2.8 grams per ton
Has very good prognosis on returns, considering that cost of gold can go from as high as USD960 down to USD360 per ounce,
as outputs from milling are increased from 1,000 to 10,000 tons a day
Only when interest is shown will a full disclosure be made of specific terms and conditions for either purchase or joint venture
3. Zambo Sibuguey Mining
Gold, silver, copper mine
Covered with a complete project profile, available for transmittal only upon expression of interest
4. Various Mining Possibilities from the Manobo Territory
The Manobo is composed of 17 tribes of indigenous people with control of what is potentially to be the best gold, copper and
nickel mining in the Philippines, but remains undeveloped because the tribes have been protecting their territories
against outside development
We are authorized to look for investors for at least 5 big different mines in the area that will be covered by at least 8
MPSAs provided that the Manobo can get a substantial share in the operation and income after project-related debts are
fully liquidated
The investment formula recognizes the right to recover investments as a primordial objective so that investors are given
protection to secure their investments, and only after debts are repaid will there be sharing with the landowners up to as high
as 50% of profits
This investment formula will be attractive to active and passive investors, local and foreign
5. Various Mining Possibilities in Different Territories
There are many iron mining possibilities in the Philippines, particularly in Larap, Camarines Norte, and magnetite extraction
from lahar in the vast areas of Zambales and Pampanga, where lahar mining is encouraged, and where magnetic extraction
of iron from 5% to 40% is available with good technology
Investments can range from USD10.0 to USD100.0 Million, with still undetermined IRRs
Feasibility studies can be prepared if interest is expressed strongly
E. MISCELLANEOUS INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES
1. Natural-Resource-Based Economic Zones
There are many natural-resource-based (NRB) investment opportunities in the country
Among others, we are promoting the establishment of 750 NRB Economic Zones involving 7 million hectares of
inalienable public land, now classified also as deforested areas and available for townships, man-made forests, and big
agricultural estates
We are the main proponent for a legislative initiative to declare these zones as available for development to provide
production, employment and income, and making available government guarantees to guaranty return on investments.
This national program should be attractive to foreigners wanting to either relocate in the Philippines for their industries or to
secure food for long-term security by developing agricultural lands and water resources for fishing and to engage in
harvestable forests, also for local and foreign use.
2. Large-Scale Big-Eye Tuna
The Philippines is blessed as a world tuna highway
As many as 10,000 tons of big-eye tuna per day can be targeted that can be air-shipped within 6 hours to the tuna fish market
in Tokyo, Japan by building a new cargo airfield alongside the tuna highway
The plan is to divert the tuna from its lane towards a nearby lagoon that will be the catching ground to gather 10,000 tons of
tuna and air-ship them live to the Tokyo tuna market
An airfield capable of taking 747 or C130 aircrafts can easily be constructed in a nearby land
3. A Pacific-Based Transhipment Port
A 2,000- to 4,000-hectare transhipment port could be made beside a deep harbor with an average depth of 23 fathoms that
can take Post-Panamax vessels
Can compete with the transhipment ports of Singapore and Malaysia, with 3- or 4- nautical-day advantage in terms of nearness
to China
The transhipment port, being land-based, will only require world-class development and port operations management, available
in the Philippines, Japan or Singapore
Can be the base of a project-backed issue or an initial public offering (IPO) in Singapore, Sydney or Hong Kong
A full-disclosure investment-grade Information Memorandum can be prepared upon showing of interest of credible investors
Area considered is protected by a very big island that literally serves as a breakwater for possible tsunamis or storm surges
4. A 400-Hectare Reclamation Project in Mactan City, Cebu
Adjoining the Mactan International Airport
With a complete feasibility and engineering study
Needing PhP30.0 Billion
Funds generation plan can be made available soon
