  • The combined copper production of Anglo American and Teck reached just under one million tonnes last year, with strong production expected to continue.
  • Synergies at Collahuasi and Quebrada Blanca could add an additional 175 kilotonnes of copper per year from 2028, highlighting the operational benefits of this merger.
  • Teck’s pipeline of copper projects, including Zafranal in Peru and San Nicolás in Mexico, offers future growth potential, though permitting timelines may shift during the transition.
  • Highland Valley Copper in Canada is set to contribute additional production by 2027, complementing the larger Chilean mines.
