Exploration forum cancelled in Chile as copper price fall bites

An exploration forum slated to take place next month in Chile as part of one of the copper industry’s biggest annual events has been cancelled, as a fall in the copper price has hurt demand, organisers said on Wednesday.
The Exploration Forum, which would have been in its ninth year, was due to take place in Santiago on April 4. It has become the traditional opener to the CESCO/CRU week, a copper-focused event that draws attendees from across the global industry.
