Chile, the world’s largest copper producer with a 23% global share in 2024, is continuing its production recovery in 2025, although challenges remain at some major operations. Production is forecast to grow a further 2% in 2025. However, growth will be partially offset by declines at some of Chile’s major copper mines, including Collahuasi and Los Bronces. Conversely, Capstone Copper’s Mantoverde mine is expected to be a key contributor in 2025, alongside Codelco’s Salvador and Radomiro Tomic mines.
Looking ahead, Chile’s copper production is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 1.9% from 2025 to 2030, reaching 6.2Mt by 2030. This growth will be primarily driven by strong production from the Collahuasi mine, as well as the scheduled commencement of the Centinela Mine Expansion, El Espino, and Marimaca projects, among others.
