Chilean state-owned copper miner Codelco said on Monday it had renewed a contract with Canada’s Innergex Renewable Energy Inc (TSE:INE) to continue using solar heat to recover copper at its Gabriela Mistral Division mine in northern Chile. Innergex owns a 55% stake in the 34-MW Pampa Elvira solar thermal plant, which has been supplying heat to Gabriela Mistral Division since 2013. Codelco uses solar thermal energy in the process known as copper electrowinning to replace diesel consumption in water heating boilers, the miner said.
