Chilean miner Codelco says copper price fall puts projects ‘at risk’

Chilean copper miner Codelco said on Monday that the drop in copper prices has put some of its projects "at risk." The miner, the world’s largest of the red metal, said in a letter sent to all its workers that the significant decline "casts doubt on our ability to generate resources and also questions the viability of some of the projects that we have been vigorously promoting until now."
