The Mica scandal began in 2011 in Ireland when defective concrete blocks used in the construction of homes and other buildings showed signs of cracking and decay. The blocks were found to contain more than the maximum permitted amount of the mineral mica. The majority of affected buildings were in County Donegal but other counties were also impacted. A similar issue with the presence of pyrite was identified in 2007, originating with a quarry in the east of Ireland.

As a result of these minerals built into these houses, people's homes are literally falling apart. The Irish government have been slow to act against these property developers who cut these corners leading to thousands of families losing their homes.
