Using an activist-orientated dataset (the EJAtlas) of place-based mining resistances, we conduct a statistical analysis of 346 mining conflicts around the world to better understand patterns and conditions associated with activist perceptions of environmental justice (EJ) in mining conflicts. Our study uses a large set of variables, including location, project and conflict characteristics, impacts and resistance attributes. The results show that controlling for other factors, conflict intensity, timing of mobilisation, the centrality of the company in the network, conflict events, project status and the presence of international financial organisations are significant correlates of perceived EJ success. We find that mobilising during the prevention stage, and high-intensity reactions, as well as the ability to halt a project, are positively associated with perceived EJ success. In turn, the intensity of the mobilisation relates to immediate potential socio-economic and environmental impacts, and the presence of excluded and marginalised groups, whereas stopping a project relates to the timing of mobilisation and institutional contexts. We discuss these findings in the light of the literature on political ecology and social movements. We hope that our analysis will help those who seek evidence-based support for EJ activism and prompt further enquiry on mining politics in the world.

使用基于活动家的基于位置的采矿抵抗力数据集（EJAtlas），我们对全球346个采矿冲突进行了统计分析，以更好地理解与活动家对采矿冲突中的环境正义（EJ）的理解有关的模式和条件。我们的研究使用了大量变量，包括位置，项目和冲突特征，影响和抵抗力属性。结果表明，控制其他因素，冲突强度，动员时间，公司在网络中的中心地位，冲突事件，项目状态以及国际金融组织的存在与感知到的EJ成功密切相关。我们发现，在预防阶段需要动员起来，进行高强度反应，并且可以中止项目，与感知到的EJ成功成正比。反过来，动员的强度与直接的潜在社会经济和环境影响以及被排斥和边缘化群体的存在有关，而停止项目则与动员的时间和机构环境有关。我们根据有关政治生态学和社会运动的文献讨论这些发现。我们希望我们的分析将帮助那些寻求证据支持EJ行动主义的人，并促使人们对世界矿业政治进行进一步的调查。我们根据有关政治生态学和社会运动的文献讨论这些发现。我们希望我们的分析将帮助那些寻求证据支持EJ行动主义的人，并促使人们对世界矿业政治进行进一步的调查。我们根据有关政治生态学和社会运动的文献讨论这些发现。我们希望我们的分析将帮助那些寻求证据支持EJ行动主义的人，并促使人们对世界矿业政治进行进一步的调查。
