Daniel schweimler reports. Reporter chile, traditionally one of the most stable economies was built largely on mining. Particularly copper, a soft metal used. Economists recognised that chilly was over dependent on red gold. This week in china, it might prove them right.

What happened to copper is global prices slump by 20 , and chinas biggest market wants less of this than expected. The fear here is that if the chinese economy is heading to crisis, it will want less. With less income from copper, less dollars, the price of everything has gone up from electrical its to bread. And the government facing the demands to reform, especially the education system, has less money to implement most changes. When china sneezes chile catches a cold, exacerbated by its reliance on copper, one way for another all stages of society will be affected. How and how much is not clear. What is clear is the Current Crisis is forcing the chilean copper industry to take a look at the way it operates. Chile cant reduce reliance on copper. Its hoped we extract something point of view.
