The global fight against climate change will boost demand for copper, a key metal used in the production of electric vehicles, Antofagasta chairperson Jean-Paul Luksic said on Wednesday.
Luksic, speaking to reporters at Antofagasta’s Los Pelambres mine in north-central Chile, said the global "green economy" would put Chile, the world´s top producer of the red metal, at a strategic advantage over the competition.
