The projects are McEwen Copper’s Los Azules in Argentina, Glencore’s El Pachón and Vicuña, a cross-border copper project between Lundin Mining LUN.TO and BHP BHP.AX.\n\nArgentina’s Los Azules copper project nears investment decision\n\nVicuña has said it plans to use desalinated water from the Pacific Ocean, though did not specify whether it would rely on Chilean infrastructure, and declined to comment on the government-level talks.\nLos Azules does not plan to use desalinated water or export through Chilean ports, but a company spokesperson said it was interested in the discussions given the project’s proximity to the border. BHP has not clarified whether the company will make use of the infrastructure already in place.\nArgentina, long reliant on agricultural exports, has not produced copper since the closure of the Alumbrera mine in 2018. But a pipeline of projects under development could place it among the world’s top 10 copper producers by 2030, analysts say. Alongside Chile, it could become part of a key supply hub for a metal critical to the energy transition.\n(Reporting by Fabian Cambero in Santiago and Lucila Sigal in Buenos Aires.
