The Role of Generators in Mining
        Chilean Copper




    www.wpowerproducts.com Call us: +1-713-434-2300
» Approximately one-third of the Chilean government’s revenue
 comes from the country’s copper mines, according to
 National Geographic.

 The country holds nearly one-quarter of the world’s copper
 reserves. While other minerals like gold, silver, and aluminum
 are also mined in Chile, copper is the main attraction.




                                                 www.wpowerproducts.com
» In 2010, Chile produced 5390 metric tons of copper, a slight
 increase from 2009 production. Much of Chile’s copper is mined
 by the national copper mining company, Codelco; international
 firms account for some copper production. In 2011, Chile earned
 over $40 billion from the mining industry as a whole and
 employed approximately 610,000 people directly and indirectly.




                                                  www.wpowerproducts.com
» Because mines are often in remote sites, they often access to
 natural gas pipelines or electric grids. Generators provide most of
 the mines’ operating power. In fact, diesel generators provide
 approximately 72 percent of power at mining sites, helping power
 drills, excavators, and shovels. Diesel is a favored fuel in the
 mining industry because it’s less volatile than natural gas.

 Without generator power, miners
 would have to perform more of
 the difficult labor by hand. Not
 only would mining take longer,
 the supply and demand of these
 resources would become much
 more challenging.
                                                  www.wpowerproducts.com
» At Worldwide Power Products, we supply generators to mining
 companies in Chile and throughout South America. We offer a
 large inventory of both new and used generators, and are even
 able to help set up financing on the global market.




                                               www.wpowerproducts.com
» Relatively recent discoveries of copper deposits at Sur, near the
 Chilean capital of Santiago, could hold approximately
  2.1 billion tons of copper ore, according to British mining
 conglomerate Anglo American. Through a 1978 deal, national
 firm Codelco gets the opportunity to exercise buy-in rights to
 Anglo American’s Chilean mining sites every three years.




                                                  www.wpowerproducts.com
» In October 2011, Codelco decided to buy in; however, executives
 low balled their offer, discounting the large Sur deposits. Not
 willing to let profit slip away, Anglo American turned around and
 made a better deal with Mitsubishi.

 The Sur conflict will be taken up by Chile’s legal system; the
 findings in this case could have implications for other
 international companies hoping to get in on the Chilean copper
 reserves.




                                                  www.wpowerproducts.com
» The vastness of Chile’s resources guarantee copper mining for
 another century, and ensure the country a stable economy and
 good job prospects. With this wealth comes responsibility to
 operate mines safely.

 The second anniversary of the Chilean mine collapse occurred
 last week. Perhaps officials were lax in the past because copper
 plays such an important role for the country’s finances. Do you
 think Chile has learned the lessons from the mine collapse and is
 applying them correctly? Or do the legal woes spell a different
 headache for the South American powerhouse?
