Abstract
An extended input‐output approach is proposed to investigate the possible subregional impact of a capital investment in mining activity. The approach is different from previous attempts in a sense that households are regarded as endogenous variables and they are broken down into three categories. This will in principle allow for an evaluation of changes in income distribution in the subregion. The results show that no significant progressive redistribution of earned income may be expected from such a capital investment.
