Chile is the most dynamic economy in South America and the largest producer of copper globally. Growth in copper production is set to drive the mining industry with significant investments made to establish new copper and gold mines, and expand existing mines.

By the end of 2011, world copper consumption is estimated to have grown by 5.9%, primarily driven by increased demand from China which will, by this time, consume an estimated 38% of global output. Chile offers an exceptionally favorable environment for foreign investors keen to enter the market, as the Decree Law 600 (DL 600) permits foreign investors to enter the market under conditions equal to those of domestic firms, with access to the same credits and privileges.
