Southern Copper workers to continue Peru strike after talks fail

Union representatives and executives from miner Southern Copper, in Peru, failed to reach an agreement to end an indefinite strike after a long meeting on Monday night, the union said on Tuesday.

The company did not agree to the union’s main demand for a greater share of profits, Raul Urere, a leader of a union representing 2 200 workers, told Reuters. He said another meeting was scheduled for Wednesday.
