摘要：Mexico is identified in the world as a nation that produces a large amount of minerals thatcontribute to economic mobility. However, as a consequence of the mining activity, negativeassumptions have been generated regarding the impact caused to the environment, since by nature,this industry tends to be aggressive in its processes. Therefore, it is considered a research study thatoffers a proposal for a sustainable model that is based on elements such as: literary foundations,sustainable universal principles and legislative parameters; and that, in addition, is supported bythe best environmental practices, which lead to minimization or eradication of impacts or risks ofenvironmental impact. The objective of this document is to describe the validation of the sustainablemodel for the mining-metallurgical industry in Mexico, through the design of qualitative researchthat is based on the integrated multiple case study method. Its scope is limited to the presentationof validation and other preliminary results, considering in future publications to provide specificresults of the case studies and the implementation of the model.
