                    [Summary] => Environment Secretary Michael Defensor has canceled 65 non-performing mining tenements for violating certain provisions of the Philippine Mining Act of 1995.


In a memorandum order he issued before leaving for Malaysia last Wednesday to attend a mining conference, Defensor revoked with finality the mining tenements after the mining contractors failed to conduct  mining activities over a long period of time.


Specifically, some of the mining contractors failed to perform annual work obligations and failed to pay occupation fees for more than two years.
