2021-3-1 In a recent study for the Chile copper mining sector, Lagos et al. (2018) estimate that copper grade should decrease at a slower rate in the forthcoming years, so that electric energy consumption per ton of copper should grow at a significantly lower rate than that observed in the period of 2001–2015. Lagos et al. also anticipate that copper mining production in Chile will be essentially based on the
