The mine has completely changed environment in Kingston through the land, water, air, business, and even people. An Environmental health inspection that was done recently by experts at Queens University found heavy metals in Kingston’s water sources all around the mine. The air has had a thick smog to it for months now and is not healthy for local communities around the Mine. The commission for human rights also asked the government to suspend the Marvel Mine so they can carry out investigations into the pollution and human rights violations. The economic benefits on the Marvel mine are short lived, but the negative effects that it is doing to our environment is everlasting.
