Antofagasta’s Los Pelambres mine in Chile hit by blockade

Quebreda Blanca Phase 2 project in Chile, currently under construction, will double Teck's consolidated copper production when it starts in 2022.

The company is among the few remaining South African gold producers squeezing profits from mines that are among the deepest in the world and are becoming more costly to run.

A strong price environment had seen miners look at the economics of reopening mothballed operations, one consultancy says.

The company would build a unit that processes iron ore using green hydrogen at its plant in Gijon, Spain.

The court said the initial environmental approvals had failed to "correctly evaluate" the risk of air pollution generated by the project.

AngloGold believes the combination the companies' Nevada assets further consolidates one of the largest new gold districts in the world.

Work is part of a program to decomission dams that used similar structures to the one in Brumadinho, a dam that burst in 2019 and killed over 200.

The lead prosecutor had declined to say how much more they were looking for, but referenced a benchmark of 155 billion reais.

Total production reached 379,195 oz, a 15% increase from Q2 2020 and a 25% improvement over the prior quarter.
