To show the robustness of these results, we have tried three alternative strategies for each of the outcomes. In row 2, we drop the sample that lives 20 to 40 km away, since they might be affected by the mine; in row 3, we drop the sample that was surveyed two years prior to mine opening; in row 4, we add closest mine ...
