Antofagasta cuts copper guidance

Chilean copper miner Antofagasta on Monday provided a new production guidance for 2019, following the recent unrest and riots, which disrupted supplies to its Los Pelambres mine and resulted in damage to equipment.

All its mines are now back in operation, but the London-listed mining company said that the disruptions were estimated to have an impact of about 10 000 t of copper for the full year.
