SANTIAGO (Reuters) - One of the unions on strike at Chile’s Candelaria copper mine accepted a 30-month collective agreement from Lundin Mining Corp on Friday, the company and the union said.
The Candelaria AOS Union, representing about 550 workers at Lundin’s Candelaria operations in Chile, accepted the last formal offer, presented by Candelaria on Nov. 12, the company said.
It said it was assessing a resumption of partial operations at the mine, while the other union, Candelaria Mine Workers Union, representing about 350 workers, continues its strike.
