Chile: The Copper Kingdom

Chile stands as a global leader in copper production and exports, often referred to as the "Kingdom of Copper." The Antofagasta region, where Exponor takes place, is at the heart of this copper-rich landscape. This region accounts for 54% of Chile’s copper output and 16% of the world’s total production. It’s not only rich in copper but also hosts various other mineral deposits, making it a vital hub for the mining industry.
