Lundin Mining's Caserones could follow
Some 2400 workers represented by Union #1 have begun strike action at the BHP-operated Escondida copper mine in northern Chile after failing to reach terms for a new three-year collective agreement. The strike began at 8am local time at the mine that produced 1.1Mt of copper in 2023.
Union officials were upset that BHP communicated its final offer directly to workers before it informed the union's negotiation committee.Lundin MiningBHP is not the only copper producer in Chile facing labour strife. Lundin Mining said that one of its three labour unions at its Caserones mine, representing ~5% of the workforce, voted to strike. The company said it is ramping down some aspects of the operation to prepare for this.
