This paper aims to identify if mining implies greater social vulnerability in Peru. A quantitative research was carried out with data from the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics. The statistical program SPSS 18.0 was used as the instrument of analysis by means of factor analysis, in which the variables were associated with three factors: Family, Physical and Social. Then the cluster technique was used, in which the departments with similar characteristics were grouped together. The results showed that the cluster number 2 is composed of a mining region which in turn has illegal and informal mining presence and has a greater impact on social vulnerability, according to Student’s t test. It can be concluded that the mining regions influence the number of jobs, and the local economy but generates social vulnerability, represented by situations of denunciations and robberies. |
