    .

    The Chilean government has ruled out privatizing the Chilean National Copper Company (Codelco
    ).
    Mines Minister Baldo Prokurica said: "In response to the statements made by some representatives who proposed the privatization of Codelco, I would like to emphasize that this is not part of the plan of the
    presidential government.
    Even under the special circumstances caused by the epidemic, I completely ruled out any possibility
    of taking the initiative in this matter.

    Fundamental changes: 1) the refined copper bank rose to 255,000 tons for four consecutive weeks, and LME stocks continued to fall to 129,200 tons; 2) the weekly TC of copper concentrate remained around $49, and the two striker mines in Antofagasta accepted new wage agreements to avoid strikes, and the hype on the mine side waned
