Chile orders definitive closure of Lundin’s Alcaparrosa mine
Lundin must permanently close its Alcaparrosa copper mine and faces a $3.41 million fine, which it can either pay or appeal.
Peru’s Buenaventura, one of the country’s largest miners of precious metals, on Wednesday said it added two executives from Chile’s Antofagasta to its board of directors following a partnership that began late last year.
The new members are Ivan Arriagada, Antofagasta’s chief executive, and Andronico Luksic, Antofagasta’s vice president of development, Buenaventura said in a statement.
They will join another seven members on Buenaventura’s board of directors.
Antofagasta acquired a 19% stake of Buenaventura in December.
