Foreign media reports on February 4th, the CCM-Eleva Alliance released a study this week showing that by 2032, Chile's mining industry will need more than 34,000 new workers, an increase of 36% from previous estimates, indicating strong growth in the mining industry. The main drivers of this talent demand are the retirement of workers and the development of new projects. According to the report, the main projects driving the demand for new talent are Teck's QB2, which began copper production for the first time last year and is currently ramping up operations; Gold Fields' Salares Norte, expected to start in April; Antofagasta's Centinela mine and Anglo American's expansion plan for Los Bronces, scheduled for early 2026.
