In 2017, the entity constructed a road to the silver mine costing P5, 000,000. Improvements and other
development costs made in 2017 cost P750, 000.
Because of the improvements to the mine and to the surrounding land, it is estimated that the mine can
be sold for P600, 000 when mining activities are complete.
During 2018, a building was constructed near the mine site to house the mine workers and their
families.
The total cost of the building was P2, 000,000. Estimated residual value is P200, 000.
Geologist estimated that 4,000,000 tons of silver ore could be removed from the mine for refining.
During 2019, the first year of operations, only 500,000 tons of silver ore were removed from the mine.
During the same year, geologists discovered that the mine contained 3,000,000 tons of silver ore in
addition to the original 4,000,000 tons.
Development costs of P1, 300,000 were made to the mine early in 2020 to facilitate to removal of the
additional silver.
Early in 2020, an additional building was constructed at a cost of P375, 000 to house the additional
workers needed to excavate the added silver. This building is not expected to have any residual value.
