Illegal mining back in Diwalwal
The Philippine Star
|July 14, 2025
Since a massive gold reserve was discovered decades ago in Mount Diwata, triggering a gold rush, so many landslides and accidents have hit the area dubbed Diwalwal, with no certainty about how many people have perished in the disasters.
-
As of 2023, the "golden mountain" in the town of Monkayo in Davao de Oro was estimated to still contain about $1.8 billion worth of gold reserves. Authorities have been largely unable to stop illegal gold mining operations in Diwalwal, particularly the artisanal or small-scale activities.
The result has been periodic incidents of mudslides and other accidents that have claimed so many lives and left countless others missing.
