SANTIAGO, Aug 1 (Reuters) - Workers at BHP's Escondida, the world's largest copper mine, rejected an offer for a new collective bargaining agreement, setting the stage for a potential strike, the union said on Thursday.
A total of 2,371 workers, or about 99.75% of union members, voted in favor of the strike.
