In 2018, Chile consolidated its positions as the world’s leading copper mine producer, with a 28% share in global output; its second-biggest molybdenum miner, with 22.2%; and its fifth-largest producer of silver, with 5.5%. The country also ranked first in the production of iodine, with a 62% global share, second in lithium compounds (18.8%), and eighth in potassium compounds (2.4%). During the year, mining was Chile’s fourth-largest economic sector, accounting for 9.8% of GDP, 2.7% of formal employment and 55.6% of national exports. Since late 2016, an upward trend in the prices of iron ore, molybdenum, coal, copper and lithium has driven a recovery of domestic mining production and exports, and led to resumption of several investment projects. Mining exports rose by a strong 9.4% y/y in 2018, while the sector’s trade surplus widened to USD 40.3bn.
