Ongoing Production ChallengesMVC did not receive any fresh tailings for ~10 days, and throughput has yet to return to pre-incident levels.
Operational DisruptionsQ3 copper production came in at 14.6Mlbs, below our 16.6Mlbs estimate, due to a 10-day suspension of fresh tailing following the El Teniente accident, which lowered fresh tailing throughput.
Production ShortfallCopper produced came in lower than expectations due to reduced fresh tailings throughput.
