Yukon Metals identifies priority drill targets at Birch copper-gold project
The 7,000-hectare Birch project is one of the company’s 17 properties across 42,500 hectares in Canada's Yukon Territory.
The mine supervisor union for Chile’s Centinela mine, operated by mining company Antofagasta, decided to extend negotiations to avoid a strike, the union said on Monday.
The union said in a statement that the company had made a new, much better offer, causing union leaders to hold off on threats of a strike to discuss the offer with union members.
The union said talks would be extended through Tuesday and Wednesday.
Union members had rejected a previous proposal from the mining company in mid-May, and began a mediation period with the government last week.
In 2022, Centinela produced 247,600 tonnes of copper, according to data from the state agency Cochilco.
