According to the Honduras Documentation Centre, 52% of all conflict in
Honduras is rooted in natural resource management. The most notorious
case is that of Vancouver-based Goldcorp’s which operated the San Martin
gold and silver mine in Valle de Siria. The projects legacy is one of
water contamination, dried up streams, and reports of serious public
health problems in surrounding communities which have yet to be fully
addressed.
