PLATE TECTONICS
theory dealing with the dynamics of Earth's
outer shell, the lithosphere, that revolutionized
earth sciences by providing a uniform contextfor understanding mountain-building
processes, volcanoes, and earthquakes, as well
as understanding the evolution of Earth's
surface and reconstructing its past continental
and oceanic configurations.

1) The Philippines is known for:
a) GOLD (ranks 3rd richest in terms of occurrence per unit
area)b) COPPER (There were as many as 30 copper mines in 1982)
c) CHROMITE (known for its high grade)
d) NICKEL (biggest resource in SE Asia)
2) 180 metal mines (~60 major ones) in the mid-70s to early 80s
