Methodology: multidimensional categorization on the impacts of mining in a rural community. Results: mining activity during the 2006-2019 period caused multidimensional negative effects, which affect population and the territory. Limitations: the lack of budget to expand its scope, as well as the security risks due to the local territorial tensions. Value: the methodological proposal of analysis and the categorization of the impacts of mining. Conclusions: the San José mining project lacks the necessary mechanisms to benefit local social development.
