According to data released by the Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas Chile, the country's copper output in April decreased by 1.1% year-on-year to 417,279 mt.
It was still the lowest in the same period in recent years, and also dropped significantly on the month.
In April, the disruptions to mines weakened, but the commissioning of new production capacity was also very limited. Meanwhile, the country's manufacturing output fell 6.4% over the period, the ONS said, below economists' expectations for a 3.0% fall.
