Codelco copper output up in 2024
Copper production from Chile's Codelco, the world's largest producer of the red metal, reached 1.328-million metric tons last year, according to an internal document seen by Reuters on Wednesday.
The closely watched final number had not previously been reported but chairperson Maximo Pacheco said earlier this week that 2024 output was "slightly higher" than the 1.325-million tons produced in 2023.
