Chile’s Codelco resuming normal operations at Andina copper mine

Chile’s state-owned mining company, Codelco, said on Monday that it has started to normalise operations at its massive Andina mine following a pipeline burst last week that forced it to stop a production line.

Codelco, the world’s top copper producer, reported on Thursday that it was suspending the production line after an underground pipe carrying material from a concentrator to a filtration plant burst.
