An Environmental Justice Atlas case study alleges that Glencore's Tintaya and Antapaccay copper mines in Peru have negatively impacted local communities and the environment. The case study alleges that these mining operations are linked to violent repressive action by local authorities. Glencore's Tintaya mine closed in 2013.

This story includes previous responses provided by Glencore to the Business & Human Rights Resource Centre, concerning allegations which also feature in the Environmental Justice Atlas case study.
