Chile's National Copper Corporation will weigh the sale of assets in investment review.

Chairman of Chile's state-owned mining giant and one of the world's largest copper producers, Bernardo Fontaine, stated at a meeting of the lower house committee in Congress that as part of a broader priority investment review, the company will evaluate the potential for selling assets or establishing partnerships. Fontaine said that this expected three to four month evaluation aims to help Codelco determine whether it is "reasonable to continue holding onto these assets, sell them, or explore some other option."
