SANTIAGO - Cities across Chile were without power on Sunday and output at some mines disrupted after a main power grid failed a fortnight after a massive earthquake killed hundreds and ravaged infrastructure.
State mining giant Codelco, the world's top copper producer, said the disruption shut its mines in central Chile. But its Codelco Norte division in the northern part of the country was unaffected.
Global miner BHP Billiton's Escondida deposit, the world's largest copper mine, was operating normally and was not affected, a union leader said.
dudes this is going crazy :zombie:
