And just to throw a REALLY wild one out there, what would you do if you were BHP and you were hell bent of dominating the copper market but had so far failed to make any substantial headway? (which is inconveniently true)
Imagine the chaos BHP would create by doubling the wages at Escondida. Every other copper miner in Chile and Peru (40% of global Copper output) would go on strike. Escondida being one of the lowest cost large producers would be the last man / mine standing to mop up the others who are all mothballed due to strike action.....
Sounds like a long shot, which is is. (kinda reminds me of the Pelican Brief) BUT it is actually possible and someone at BHP will be considering it, but....too hard / Machiavellian? Or are Lord Black Adder and Baldrick on site atm with their cunning plan?
And just to throw a REALLY wild one out there, what would you do...
