PTLA No. 47, part of which later became IFMA No. 35. In
turn, the areas set aside as wilderness as in PTLA No. 47
became the initial components of the NIPAS under Sec.
5(a) of RA No. 7586. When RA No. 7942 was signed into
law, the areas covered by the NIPAS were expressly
determined as areas where mineral agreements or
financial or technical assistance agreement applications
shall not be allowed. PICOP concludes that since there is
no evidence that the permanent forest areas within PTLA
No. 47 and IFMA No. 35 have been set aside for mining
purposes, the MAB and the Court of Appeals gravely erred
in reinstating Base Metals MPSA and, in effect, allowing
mining exploration and miningrelated activities in the
protected areas.
PICOP further argues that under DENR Administrative
Order (DAO) No. 9640 implementing RA No. 7942, an
exploration permit must be secured before mining
operations in government reservations may be undertaken.
There being no exploration permit issued to Banahaw
Mining nor appended to its MPSA, the MAB and the Court
of Appeals should not have reinstated its application.
PICOP brings to the Courts attention the 12
case of PICOP
Resources, Inc. v. Hon. Heherson T. Alvarez, wherein the
Court of Appeals ruled that the Presidential Warranty
issued to PICOP for its TLA No. 43 dated July 29, 1969, a
TLA distinct from PTLA No. 47 involved in this case, is a
valid contract involving mutual prestations on the part of
the Government and PICOP.
The Presidential Warranty in this case is allegedly not a
mere confirmation of PICOPs timber license but a
commitment on the part of the Government that in
consideration of PICOPs investment in the wood
processing business, the Government will assure the
