I guess I will be bling blinging for sure with all that gold. 

 it's not just gold at the Philippines have ,there are other minerals that have not been tapped yet.

 

Philippines either has a lot of natural golds or there were a lot piracy during Spanish era and our country was an ideal place to search and stash golds? The article mention that there are gold deposits in several provinces and for this reason the country was nickname El Dorado.  If there were pirates searching for golds and stashing treasures in Philippines then we may have also a version of Captain Blood, the notorious pirate.
