Industrialized countries attempted to obtain minerals, resulting in a developed method to extract valuable minerals from the ground. Consequently, waste mine tailings are produced and, when left to pile up, will potentially be hazardous to the environment and the people. However, more mine tailings become a problem when the organization needs clarification on the minerals' value and what they can be used for. This study focuses on a multi-criteria analysis of the potential repurposing of the Philex Mining Corporation (PMC) tailings in Benguet, Philippines. While mining policies were considered, findings show that piles of mine tailings had not been considered for refining to produce more resources for development, construction, and economic growth The study employs qualitative inquiry to understand better the grassroots processes and reconnaissance of the stored tailings. The analysis tries to promote sustainable practices – presenting a higher sustainability priority, resource conservation, and the responsible management of mining waste, making it a more favorable alternative to traditional tailing storage facilities. Several industrial uses for the tailings have been suggested to reinforce waste diversion.
