REYES ANGELITO F. RAMOS WILFRED N. MAGSAMBOL ELMER C. HERNANDEZ ABSTRACT Consistent with the program of evaluating the nuclear mineral resource potential and related industrial minerals of the Philippines, a reconnaissance geochemical survey was conducted in Cebu with considerable success. The total area covered by the survey was about 5,088 sq. kms. The survey consisted of systematic collection of 857 geochemical stream sediment and water and heavy mineral samples, and measurement of radioactivity in over 352 stations. The average sampling density was about one set of samples per 15 to 30 sq. kms. All solid samples were analyzed for U, Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn, Ag, Co and Ni. Uranium, radon and conductivity were measured on most water samples collected. A total of 4,518 elemental determinations were involved. All field and analytical data were treated by statistics, and the computed parameters were correlated with the geology of the area to establish anomalous zones. Four areas were delineated for possible uranium mineralization and several areas were also pinpointed for other possible metallic mineralization. Of the four areas, the Mandawe River area is the most interesting for uranium. The contact zone between the diorite and the sedimentary rocks in this area appears to be a favorable geological environment for uranium mineralization. The other anomalous uranium values were found to be related with the guano and phosphate deposits. Uranium was also shown to be independent of the other seven elements in the geologic environment of Cebu. No definite elemental association could be established at present. This study also marks the . thorough utilization of Q'GAS, Cadplot and Autocad, all microcomputer-based programs/systems, in the evaluation and interpretation of exploration-oriented geochemical and geological data, and with more significance in the sense that computer generated quality geochemical maps were produced, a first in the country. PNRI B(EA)89001 Page 2 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose and Scope of the Report This technical report summarizes fifty (50) days of reconnaissance geochemical and radiometric surveys for uranium in Cebu Island (Fig. 1). The total area covered by the survey was about 5,080 sq. km. The survey was part of the evaluation of the uranium resource potential of the country. The diffferent exploration techniques that were used in the present survey included stream sediment and water sampling, heavy mineral pan concentrate sampling, and radiometric and geologic mapping. From the results of the survey, prospective areas for uranium and other metallic elements were delineated. This report also aims to make full use of microcomputer-based programs/systems specifically the application of Q'GAS in the evaluation of exploration-oriented geochemical and geological data and more importantly, the application of Cadplot, an in-house developed computer program, combined with Autocad in the generation of color-coded geochemical symbol maps for better presentation and easier anomaly identification of prospective areas. 1.2 Location and Accessibility Cebu, one of the Visayan group of islands, situated in central Philippines lies between 9<>35'32" and 11© 17'17" latitude and extends from 123<>22'25" to 124°02'44" longitude. Cebu City, the capital is about 565 km. air distance from Manila. It is bounded in the west by Tanon Strait, in the east by Cebu Strait Fig. 1. LOCATION MAP OF CEBU PNRI B(EA)89001 Page 4 and in the north by the Visayan Sea. Accessibility to the Island is either by plane or by interisland vessel. The Philippine Airlines maintains several daily flights from Manila to Hactan Airport. William Lines, Inc., C. Go Thong Lines, Inc., Sulpicio Lines and Sweet Lines operate interisland vessels that call on Manila and Cebu City. The Island is circumscribed by all weather, hard surface roads that fringe the narrow coastal plain. Several mountain passes afford the main access between the east and west coasts, such as the Cebu-Toledo road and the Cebu-Barili road. Numerous short hard to loose surface roads and trails interconnect habitations in the interior. During the dry season, dried up large streams serve vehicular traffic. 1.3 Climate. Vegetation and Culture More than thiee-fourths of the Island falls under the Type III Climate of PAGASA, i.e., with seasons not very pronounced; relatively dry from November to April and wet during the rest of the year. The less than one-fourth northern part falls under the Type IV Climate, that is, with rainfall mere or less evenly distributed throughout the year. Based on PAGASA s Monthly Rainfall and Cyclones in the Philippines Chart, maximum rainfall occurs in the months of July (230 mm) and September (210 mm) in Cebu City. Generally, the whole Island is thinly vegetated, covered mainly by shrubs and low bushes. Small portions of rain forests and second growth trees are confined mainly in the interior and limestone areas. The alluvial flats and level areas are PNRI B(EA)89001 Page 5 cultivated to rice, corn and sugar cane.

  • Tuna Fishing and a Review of Payaos in the Philippines
    Session 1 - Regional syntheses Tuna fishing and a review of payaos in the Philippines Jonathan O. Dickson*1', Augusto C. Nativiclacl(2) (1) Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, 860 Arcadia Bldg., Quezon Avenue, Quezon City 3008, Philippines - [email protected] (2) Frabelle Fishing Company, 1051 North Bay Blvd., Navotas, Metro Manila, Philippines Abstract Payao is a traditional concept, which has been successfully commercialized to increase the landings of several species valuable to the country's export and local industries. It has become one of the most important developments in pelagic fishing that significantly contributed to increased tuna production and expansion of purse seine and other fishing gears. The introduction of the payao in tuna fishing in 1975 triggered the rapid development of the tuna and small pelagic fishery. With limited management schemes and strategies, however, unstable tuna and tuna-like species production was experienced in the 1980s and 1990s. In this paper, the evolution and development of the payao with emphasis on the technological aspect are reviewed. The present practices and techniques of payao in various parts of the country, including its structure, ownership, distribution, and fishing operations are discussed. Monitoring results of purse seine/ringnet operations including handline using payao in Celebes Sea and Western Luzon are presented to compare fishing styles and techniques, payao designs and species caught. The fishing gears in various regions of the country for harvesting payao are enumerated and discussed. The inshore and offshore payaos in terms of sea depth, location, designs, fishing methods and catch composi- tion are also compared. Fishing companies and fisherfolk associations involved in payao operation are presented to determine extent of uti- lization and involvement in the municipal and commercial sectors of the fishing industry.

  • Vulnerability Assessment of Olango Island to Predicted Climate Change and Sea Level Rise
    Vulnerability assessment of Olango Island to predicted climate change and sea level rise Amuerfino Mapalo Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Region 7 Banilad, Mandaue City, Cebu, Philippines, 6014 ([email protected]) Executive summary The Asia-Pacific Network for Global Change Research (APN) funded a study assessing the vulnerability of Olango Island, in the Central Philippines, to predicted climate change and sea level rise. The study was coordinated by the Environmental Research Institute of the Supervising Scientist (eriss), in Australia, and Wetlands International–Oceania, with the major local collaborator being the Philippines Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). The study’s major objectives were to raise awareness of the issue of climate change and sea level rise in the Asia-Pacific region, to provide advice and training to national and local agencies on procedures for Vulnerability Assessment, and specifically, to obtain a preliminary understanding of the potential impacts of climate change and sea level rise on the biological, physical and socio-economic attributes of Olango Island. Olango Island was chosen as a study site for several reasons: It is a small, coral reef island (~6 × 3 km) with low topographical relief and a maximum elevation above sea level of only 9 m; it sustains a population of over 20 000 and is already under pressure from anthropogenic activities including fishing, groundwater extraction and mangrove harvesting; it is a major wetland site for shorebirds, being nominated for the East Asian–Australasian Shorebird Reserve Network and listed as a wetland of international importance by the Ramsar Wetland Convention. Due to its importance as a flyway stopover site, a 920 ha wildlife sanctuary was established in the south of the island.

Hordon “A nation that fails to plan intelligently for the development and protection of its precious waters will be condemned to wither because of its short sightedness” (Johnson 1968) In the midst of this “Decade of Water”, the Philippines is faced with one of its major cities plagued by water problems for the same shortsightedness that President Lyndon Johnson described in 1968. The fact that this city is in a humid climate rather than a parched one makes the neglect that much more compelling. As Matthew Gandy (2003) states in Concrete and Clay, “the history of cities can be read as a history of water”. As this research indicates, Cebu City is no exception. Cebu is the second largest city in the Philippine archipelago and is an ideal place to study these issues for several reasons. It is continuing to experience strong population growth. Also, by all accounts the groundwater in this metropolitan area of over two million people is rapidly deteriorating due to saltwater intrusion.
