May I follow-up on this request?

I hope I can get 2000-2019 data on the following:

Volume (in tonnes) of Domestic extraction or production of Metalic and Non-metallic Minerals of a) the Philippines and b) Metro Manila (if no production, please mention that there is no production)

Also, I would like to determine the trade flow of metallic and non-metallic minerals within Metro Manila through domestic importation and exportation. Specifically, I would like to know the volume of these products and their origin in case of importation (from which regions in the Philippines) as well as destinations in case of domestic export. Thank you very much.
