The present work analyzed through interdisciplinarity the effects caused by environmental and social crime resulting from the rupture of dam 1, the Córrego do Feijão mine, in the municipality of Brumadinho/MG, belonging to the company Vale S/A. Addressed along four important theseaxes, such as: risk society, economic degrowth, ecosystem services and environmental value. Due to the greater impact of the disruption being related to human lives, going in the opposite direction to what occurred in Mariana/MG, the central objective was to value the affected area, which reached the amount of R$ 189,712,676.15/year. This value should be understood as a minimum value for the loss of ecosystems, so that it can assist in public policies based on the future, seeking sustainable development, so that the mineral sector can represent itself as a gift to society. In this sense, the theories of risk society and economic degrowth offer us a critical reflection of the current explorer model in Brazil, since by the inductive qualitative method it is perceived that these riches constitute a curse to the territories, these objects being to a subject company.
