I've gotta know which mission 12 you are in, a or b.  In mission 12a, 
the base is located in the lower-right corner.  In 12b, its in the lower-left 
corner. I've only played 12a, so here's some tips on that one (if you are in 
12b, drop me a note, and I'll give you some tips for that):

Ooo.. this is a fun one. To answer your question, no, GDI cannot harvest 
tiberium.  Mission 12A: In short, you have to take out all the SAM sites.  
Then GDI will send a new chopper to rescue mobius. (In MISSION 12B, you must 
take out all nod forces before a chopper is sent.)

Here's a special hint: There is an obelisk guarding one of the sam sites 
(located south of the base).  Instead of facing the obelisk, move your long 
range armor (rocket launchers, mammoths & mediums) to the north of the base. 
 There is a little "pocket" of terrain north of the base where you can move 
your weapons in range of power plants. Just take out one of the power plants, 
and the obelisk will be disabled.  Then, avoiding the enemy as much as 
possible, eliminate the rest of the same sites.  I will draw a crude map 
displaying the location of the sams:

* = impassible terrain  S = SAM Site  O = Obelisk  )) = River 
$ = Crate with money!   I I or -- = bridges
