Port Strike in Northern Chile Delays Copper Shipments, Threatens Other Ports

Bloomberg reported that a port strike in Northern Chile is resulting in shipment delays.

As quoted in the market report:

Codelco managed to deliver copper to be stored at the port today after attempts were blocked March 19, said the official, who declined to be named because of internal policy. The strike threatens to spread to other ports in Chile after talks with the government and port operator last night failed to end the conflict, a union representative said.
