The dolomite controversy
Excerpt
Suddenly, the word “dolomite” is on everyone’s lips because of the national government’s Manila Bay “beautification” project. When it became known that the crushed dolomite was from Cebu, Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia immediately issued a cease-and-desist order banning further extraction, processing and exportation of the mineral for the Manila Bay project. The dolomite mine or quarry site in Alcoy, Cebu, from where the crushed dolomite came, is the biggest dolomite quarry site in the Philippines, according to Wikipedia.
