Bitget2026/10/20 06:21- Anglo American's third-quarter 2026 copper production fell 5% to 174,900 tonnes, primarily reflecting extreme weather in Chile and lower-grade processing at Collahuasi.
- Record snowfall disrupted Los Bronces operations; throughput and mining rates fell more than 10% from the previous quarter.
- Severe weather at Collahuasi continued into the fourth quarter, with quarterly attributable production down 11% to 42,000 tonnes.
- Full-year copper production guidance remained unchanged at 700,000-760,000 tonnes, supported by expected fourth-quarter ore-grade improvements.
