More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
The folks at Southern Peru Copper Corporation (SPCC) get high on mining copper -- an easy thing to do when your mines are high in the Andes Mountains. The largest mining company in Peru, SPCC mines, smelts, and refines copper at its Toquepala and Cuajone mines, about 400 miles from Lima. The company produces blister copper (an intermediate) and copper cathodes at the smelter and refinery in Ilo, Peru. SPCC produces some 650 million pounds of refined copper a year, which it sells to customers in Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the US. Its copper is used mainly for building, construction, and electronics. US copper producer ASARCO, now owned by Nueva Grupo Mexico, controls about 60% of SPCC.
