Consejo Minero

Consejo Minero (lit. Mining Council) is a guild grouping large mining companies active in Chile.[1] According to Consejo Minero in 2025 its companies produce 94% of Chile's copper, 96% of its iron, 90% of its silver and 63% of its gold and lithium.[2] Its members are Anglo American, BHP, CMP, Minera Centinela, Codelco, Compañía Minera Doña Inés de Collahuasi, El Abra (owned by Freeport-McMoRan and Codelco[3]), Minera Escondida, Freeport-McMoRan, Glencore, Gold Fields, KGHM, Kinross, Lundin Mining, Pampa Norte, Minera Los Pelambres, Rio Tinto, South32, Sociedad Química y Minera and Teck Resources.[2] Prior to the joining of Compañía de Acero del Pacífico (CAP) in 2017 the guild lacked any company engaged in the production of iron.[4]

The organization was established in 1997.[5]

Its former presidents include Francisco Costabal (2005–2010),[6][7][8] Miguel Ángel Durán (2010–2011),[9] Jean-Paul Luksić (2011–2017), Jorge Gómez (2017–2022)[10] and Iván Arriagada (2022–).[11]
