Mining Tenements, Mining Operations, and Geology of the Philippines (Shapefiles)

Requested from MGB by R. Rodriguez at 09:56 PM on Oct 18, 2023.
Purpose: Research purposes
Date of Coverage: 01/01/2023 - 10/18/2023
Tracking no: #MGB-126131950730

Rodriguez 09:56 PM, Oct 18, 2023 

Hello! I would like to request for the shapefiles for recent mining tenements, operating mines, and geology of the Philippines.

I recently saw a similar request (https://www.foi.gov.ph/requests/aglzfmVmb2ktcGhyHQsSB0NvbnRlbnQiEE1HQi0zNTQ5ODg3MzM4ODAM) but the links given only showed maps and there were no shapefiles.

Shapefiles are geospatial data used in GIS software. The files will be used for research for the geology of the Philippines.

Thank you so much!
