GENERAL INFORMATION
A. PHYSICAL AND GEOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS
1. Location and Territorial Jurisdiction
Benguet is one of the six provinces comprising the Cordillera Administrative Region or
CAR. It was by the Republic Act No. 4695 enacted on June 18, 1966 which divided the former
Mountain Provinces of Benguet, Mountain Province, Ifugao and Kalinga-Apayao.
At 5,000 feet above sea level, Benguet, the gateway to the highland provinces of CAR
lies in the southern end of the Cordillera Mountain Range, 256 kms north of Manila and is
bounded on the North by Mt. Province, on the East by Ifugao and Nueva Viscaya, on the
South by Pangasinan, and on the west by La Union and Ilocos Sur and it is accessible by land
and air transport.
Rugged and sloping terrain and deep valleys characterize the province. Amidst these
mountain peaks is a wide plateau wherein the capital town, La Trinidad, is located. A total of
13 municipalities and 140 barangays make up the province.

In a reconciliation data conference held in December 2007, with the different agencies
in the Province, representatives who attended the conference unanimously agreed that the
area being used by the Department of Budget and Management with 276, 908 hectares be
used while boundary disputes are still being settled.
Finally, from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Land

Management Bureau approved the area for Benguet as being 298, 921.294 hectares but this is
without municipal desegregations.
3. Topography and Slope
a. Topography
Benguet has rugged, irregularly patterned ridges, canyons and peaks, many of which
are above 2,400 meters above sea level (masl) in elevation. High mountains, precipitous
escarpments, and high cliffs generally characterize the land. The lowest elevation is about 100
masl at the southern boundary of the province and the highest is at the northern area rising to
more than 2,800 masl. Almost all (93%) areas of the province have an elevation of more than
500masl. Within Benguet is found the second highest mountain in the Philippines. Mount
Pulag is a premier eco-tourist destination having a distinct floral and fauna.
The mountainous terrain is cut up by the valleys of La Trinidad, Loo, Amburayan,

Bued, and Galliano. Hot Springs dot the land with at least one found in almost all
municipalities.
Highest Peaks in Benguet:
Pulag, Kabayan - 2,929 meters
Osdong, Kibungan - 2,816 meters
Pan-otoan, Kabayan - 2,684 meters
Nan-agto, Buguias - 2,856 meters
Paoay, Atok - 2,449 meters
b. Slope
Slope which the gradient of the land surface is measured and characterized as follows:
0.3% level to nearly level; 3-8% gently sloping to undulating; 8-18% undulating to rolling; 18-
30% rolling to moderately steep; 30-59% steep; and > 50%, very steep.
At least two-fifth (60.16%) of Benguet has a very steep slope (>50%) while only one-
fifth (19.41%) is steep (30-50%). All in all, 80% of Benguet has a slope category of steep to very
steep. The remaining 20% constitute a slope category of level to nearly level, undulating to
rolling and rolling to moderately steep.

6. Water Discharge
Water resource is mobile and it occurs as both stock and flow. Water involves
economies of large scale and these are evident in water storage, conveyance and
distribution. Surface water tends to flow, evaporate, transpire and seep while groundwater
exists as a stock usually subject to recharge flows.
Major Rivers:
a. Agno River
b. Amburayan River
c. Balili/Naguillian River
d. Ampusongan River
e. Bued River
f. Abra River
g. Kibungan River
7. Geology
The present contour of the province is due to its geological history characterized by
frequent rising and subsidence movements recorded in the stratigraphy, the conditions of the
area in which sedimentary rocks were laid down or coralline limestone being built by mollusk
and algae, and the tectonic stresses together with erosion forces.
Lineation of the tertiary sedimentary in the western ranges is produced by the north
and northeast trending faults which cut across easterly fold axis. Generally older rocks exposed
extensively in the province shows that diastrophism greatly happened in the area.
Nine geological rock formations were mapped out in a survey conducted by the
Bureau of Soils, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and other groups. The
oldest rock series belong to ultrachic rocks dated Upper cretaceous. Thick sedimentary
formations made up of sandstone, siltstone, shale and conglomerate including various size of
limestone overlying the undifferentiated volcanic is located in Baguio City and La Trinidad.
This formation is dated Upper Miocene. Some of the older formations are intruded by plutonic
rocks.
Sedimentary rocks cover 30% and igneous rocks outcrop extensively occupy about 70%
of the land area of the province. Extensive and thick undifferentiated volcanic Meta rocks
occur widely in the province.

c. Geological hazard
The province’s environment is vulnerable to geological hazards. This attributed to the

active fault lines along the branches of the northern segment of the Philippine fault zone
which triggers seismic movements of fault splays within the province. Moreover Benguet’s
rugged topography, unsustainable land workings and farming practices, geologic composition
and extreme rainfall make it highly vulnerable to geologic hazards such as landslides, erosion
and ground movements.
The major faults are in the area located in the southern part of the province along the
Agno River while another is located in the northern portion of the province. These faults are
northwest in direction, numerous smaller tensional splays are conspicuous with northeast
direction. Generally Benguet is part of the Philippine fault zone.

Head Water Sources

Benguet lands serve as watershed of major river systems in Northern Luzon. From all
the river systems, Agno River is the longest followed by the Abra river system, Naguillian and
Amburayan River system.
Owing to these river systems, the province is host to some of the hydro electric power
plants supplying electric power supply to Luzon grid such as those in Ambuklao, Bokod and
Binga, Itogon as well as mini hydro power plants at Bakun, Tuba and La Trinidad. Likewise
various river tributaries feed the San roque Hydro Multi Purpose Power Plant in San Manuel
Pangasinan.

C.1.) Mineral Resources
Minerals are natural substances extracted through the process of mining. Compared to
other natural resources, the mineral resource is unique because: 1) its special features are
initially unknown, fixed in size and location and variable in quality; 2) mineral reserves are
dynamic and 3) minerals resources are non-renewable.
The Province of Benguet is naturally endowed with variety of metallic and non-
metallic minerals. The presence of big metallic mines, non metallic quarry mines and the
proliferation of small- scale mining operations is an indication of its rich mineral resources. The
important metallic mineral resources are gold, silver and based metals such as copper, zinc
and lead with pyrite as by- product. Among the non- metallic mineral are industrial
limestone, solidified volcanoes and aggregate material.
