    BHP Billiton’s Escondida mine in Chile produced 539,824 tons of copper in the first half of the year, down 22% year-on-year due to the decline in ore taste
    .
    The decline in production combined with a 21% drop in copper prices resulted in a 35% drop in sales at the Escondida mine in the first half of the year to US$2.
    74 billion
    .
    In the first half of the year, the mine made a total profit of US$527 million, a 52% year-on-year decrease; but the good news is that the mine’s cost has dropped by 30%.
