Chile, lub ntiaj teb' tus xa khoom loj tshaj plaws tooj liab, xav tias yuav tsim tau 25% ntawm lub ntiaj teb' tag nrho cov tooj liab thiab kub ntau lawm hauv 2021 thiab 2022, nce 3.7% mus rau 4.397 lab tons hauv 2021 thiab 6.6% rau 4.686 lab tons hauv 2022.
From 2021 to 2025, the average annual growth rate of Copper and gold mines in Chile will be 3.2%, reaching 4.968 million tons in 2025. In 2026-2040, the annual average growth rate is expected to be lower at 1.3 per cent, reaching 6.043 million tons in 2040.
Raws li ntau ntawm Chile' lub hnub nyoog mines thiab qib ntawm tooj liab ore poob qis, cov tuam txhab mining khawb tob hauv av, nce nqi ntau lawm. Hauv 15 xyoo dhau los, qib tooj liab ore tau poob ntawm 1% mus rau 0.6% -0.7%.
Nyob rau hauv cov ntaub ntawv ntawm Escondida, qib ntawm tooj liab ore txo los ntawm 35.7%, los ntawm 1.29% nyob rau hauv 2010 mus rau 0.83% nyob rau hauv 2020. Qhov poob ntawm tooj liab ore qib ua rau ib tug nce nyob rau hauv unit ntau lawm nqi, yuav tsum tau ntau tooj liab ore yuav tsum tau mined rau. tsim cov tooj liab tib yam. Cov nqi peev kuj tseem nce ntxiv vim lub sijhawm mining ntev thiab ntau dua tooj liab ore fragmentation.
Chile' lub xeev tus tswv Codelco, lub ntiaj teb' tus tsim tooj liab loj tshaj plaws, yog nyob rau hauv nruab nrab ntawm 10-xyoo, $ 40bn kev pab cuam los kho thiab kho ntau yam ntawm nws cov mines laus.
Codelco pib ua lag luam hauv xyoo 2020 ntawm thawj theem ntawm nws txoj haujlwm EL Teniente nthuav dav, ntxiv 50 xyoo rau nws lub neej mining. Thaum xyoo 2023, thaum qhov kev nthuav dav tiav lawm, lub mine yuav tsim tau 500,000 tonnes hauv ib xyoos, ua rau nws yog ib qhov loj tshaj plaws tooj liab mines hauv ntiaj teb.
In August 2021, Codelco began work on the RajoInca mine, a $1.38 billion expansion project that will extend the mine's mining life by 47 years, or 50% to 90,000 tons per year of copper concentrate capacity by 2070.
The RjoInca project will convert Salvador copper mined underground since 1959 to above-ground production, with a 40% improvement in ore grade. The expanded mine is expected to start production in 2022.
Chile' s SXEW (cov kuab tshuaj extraction electrodeposition) tooj liab ntau lawm nyiaj rau ntau tshaj ib feem peb ntawm lub ntiaj teb no' cov kuab tshuaj extraction electrodeposition tooj liab ntau lawm, tab sis cov refined tooj liab ntau lawm feem yog ho txo vim Chile yog tsim nyog rau leaching thiab KEV TXAUS SIAB ntawm SXEW tooj liab cov peev txheej, Chile' cov khoom siv tooj liab refined tau cia siab tias yuav poob 8.8% hauv 2021, 7.4% hauv 2025, thiab 5.9% hauv 2040. Copper cathode ntau lawm yuav tsum tso tseg los ntawm 2040.
Peru, lub ntiaj teb' tus thib ob loj tshaj plaws tsim ntawm tooj liab concentrate, suav txog li 13% ntawm lub ntiaj teb tooj liab concentrate ntau lawm thiab xav tias yuav loj hlob 6.4% mus rau 2.207 lab tons hauv 2021 thiab 10.4% rau 2.43 lab tons hauv 2022 Nyob rau hauv cov nqe lus ntawm RECOVERY los ntawm COVID-19 thiab commissioning ntawm tej yaam num tshiab, Peru's tooj liab concentrate ntau lawm yog npaj kom loj hlob ntawm ib tug nruab nrab txhua xyoo tus nqi ntawm 6.0% mus rau 777,000 tons nyob rau hauv lub sij hawm nruab nrab (2021-2025). ) thiab 1.3% rau 3.347 lab tons hauv lub sijhawm ntev (2026-2040).
Southern Copper has announced plans to invest $8 billion in major developments in Peru, including the Tiara Maria Copper project, which is expected to produce 120,000 tonnes of cathode Copper per year over 20 years. The mine contains 2.6 million tonnes of Copper, with an initial investment of $1.4 billion. Southern Copper announced development of Tia Maria in 2010 and, after several setbacks, plans to start production in 2024. In addition, Southern Copper is moving forward with the $2.5 billion Michquieley project and the $2.6 billion Los Chancas project expansion.
