The engineers of UUSC, who concluded the Marlin mine is the most probable cause for the damaged houses near the open pit, elaborated a satellite map with Google Earth. The map shows the open pit, the exact locations of the damaged houses and control villages, and a lot more.

In case you don't have Google Earth on your computer, we invite you to install the free software. To see the area around the mine you will have to open the document 'Goldcorp Marlin Mine and Cracked Houses' (.kml, 112 kb). You can check and uncheck the different layers who show detailed images of:

• The Marlin mine
• Inspected houses
• Villages
• Water Monitoring done by COPAE
• Cities in Guatemala
• Earthquake on june 13th, 2007.
