Mining opposition risks $57bn projected investment in Peru

According to UK-based risk consultancy Maplecroft, President Ollanta Humala has failed to adequately reconcile investor-friendly mining policies 
with the demands of his largely rural support base.
The experts say that despite the government’s pro-mining policies, universal approval is a goal Humala is unlikely to reach anytime soon. Last year alone there were 149 conflicts involving mines in the country, one of the world's largest copper and zinc producers.
