were removed in a forced eviction in the middle of the night on September 30, 2015. Since development of the mine, human rights groups have denounced the project for forcibly evicting more than 30 Shuar families from their homes. A study of documents related to the displacement of local people concluded that ECSA did not follow its own program approved by the government for buying land in the project area, and incurred no fine or penalty for this fault. The study also found that ECSA was not transparent about prices paid for land purchased in the area: some residents accepted offers from the company below market value without receiving any information or support from the government; and people who rejected these offers were forcibly evicted or criminalised.

found that some local residents expressed faith in responsible mining and had hopes for jobs and economic development. The study found that perceptions of the mining project were not homogenous among Shuar communities: some Shuar representatives and organisations supported the mine while others were opposed. Locals who expressed scepticism about responsible mining had concerns about medium and long term environmental degradation. They also cited concerns about increased crime and violence caused by an influx of mine workers and capital. An inter-ethnic coalition representing Shuar communities, local farmers, and ranchers opposed the mine as a threat to their traditional lifestyles.

controls mining interests on 62,000 hectares (150,000 acres). Ecuador has been reliant on oil exports for international financing, and has sought foreign investment to develop copper reserves in the Amazon as a source of funding for national infrastructure projects. Government estimates indicate that expansion of Ecuador's mining industry could generate at least $ 40 billion in export revenue between 2020 and 2030. China has invested approximately $ 1.4 billion into the Mirador project as of 2019, including $ 85 million in royalties to the Ecuadorian government. By 2020, Canadian and Chinese corporations had invested $ 7 billion in five major projects in the Corriente Copper Belt.

A 2008 report with a 30,000 TPD milling rate predicted annual production of 11 MT of concentrate, containing 137 million lbs of copper, 34,000 oz gold, and 394,000 oz silver for the first 10 years of the mine life and a total productive mine life of 17 years.
474:, the displaced people receive some financial compensation, but have no choice to remain on their land. Many Indigenous and mestizo families were vulnerable because they did not have official title to their land. Indigenous laws in which title is held in community (rather than individually) made it difficult for some people to participate in company buy-outs. 421:
The 2008 feasibility study estimated the initial capital cost of the project at $ 418 million and a life of mine operating cost of $ 474 million. Total operating costs were estimated at $ 1.2 billion. Net smelter return was estimated at $ 3.2 billion, with significant potential for expansion, both at

Several feasibility studies were completed for the mine with different mill rates and mine life. A 2005 study proposed a plan based on 111 million tonnes of in-pit resources grading 0.67% Cu and 0.22 grams per tonne of gold, and a 12-year mine life. Another study in 2006 increased the pit size to 347
