The instance takes place in Peru in the wake of the worst mercury spill in history by a transport contractor for Newmont Mining Corporation. BHP Billiton, which has no connection to Newmont, but is influenced by increased hostility toward mining companies, enters into an arrangement with Oxfam to conduct training on sustainability and "the impacts of large-scale infrastructure projects on communities." Executives from the various international business units of the company's were chosen to participate in the plan, to be held annually in Orissa, India.
One of the first managers chosen to attend the application is the general manager for BHP Billiton's Tintaya Copper Mine. The case discusses the procedure, objectives, and outcome of the ensuing dialogue between BHP Billiton and local inidigenous residents.
