Filminera Resource CorporationFilminera Resources Corporation - Masbate Gold Project

The Masbate Gold Project is located on the island of Masbate 350 kilometers south of Manila. This remote locations is 70 kilometers via rough road from Masbate City with no fixed line communication or cell network coverage.

Imaginet has worked with FRC since their involvement with the project began. Initial requirements were small (web and email hosting, basic remote communications for 5 users). It was crucial to FRC that any systems implemented allowed for seamless expansion to accommodate the predicted growth of the FRC's presence at the mine site and the regional headquarters in Makati City, Manila.

Imaginet works with FRC to manage current requirements and future needs. Using an agreed standard transparent accounting system of open book/cost plus Imaginet designed, implemented and now maintains the following.

  • Over 100 user secure network (multiple site, remote location) for data and voice
  • Leased line link plus 'last mile' wireless from Makati City to site using copper, microwave and wireless.
  • Secure VOIP between Philippines sites and internationally using SIP.
  • Messaging, File and Database servers for email and industry specific applications including automated backup and recovery
  • Wi-Fi bridging of 10 buildings on site to central office for data, voice and video.
  • IP cameras for security and process monitoring.
  • Integrated IP based access control.

"FRC's required its IT, voice and data services to be scalable, reliable and secure through our progress from feasibility to production.

Imaginet's Design, Implementation and Managed Network Services have allowed FRC to do this with the advantage of open book/cost plus accounting."
