Company Response

EcuaCorriente did not respond about the risk of collapse and rupture of the Mirador copper mine tailings dams

We invited EcuaCorriente to comment on the technical studies presented by environmental and human rights organisations "that point to a possible risk of collapse and rupture of the tailings dams of the Mirador copper mine, the largest in Ecuador, which would cause an environmental disaster that they compare to that of Brumadinho (Brazil) in 2019", but the company did not respond.

Ecuacorriente (part of Corriente Resources) has not responded to
