Generate standardized scores through reproducible metrics. 3. GIS Risk Visualization Produce heatmaps, quadrant matrices, and territorial rankings. 4. Threshold Classification Classify territories into: ● Critical Risk ● Elevated Risk ● Moderate Risk ● Low Risk 5. Governance Response Alignment Link scores to policy action: ● community engagement strategies ● financial monitoring ● transport corridor protection ● formalization redesign ● targeted institutional reinforcement 5.7 Practical Use Case For mining investors, regulators, and public agencies, the TLRI can function as an early warning system to identify territories where governance stress is likely to intensify before conflict or operational paralysis becomes visible. 6. Results (Empirical Application of the TLRI Framework) The empirical application of the Territorial Legitimacy Risk Index (TLRI) confirms that governance competition linked to illegal and informal mining is territorially concentrated rather than nationally homogeneous. Using the integrated regional dataset, the TLRI combines five dimensions: ● Territorial Informality Pressure ● State Fragility ● Illicit Financial Capacity ● Human Disruption Capacity ● Gold Formal Exposure The results identify differentiated territorial profiles across Peru. 35
