Magotteaux and Codelco collaborate to advance sustainable mining practices

Tuesday 4th February | 2025

Magotteaux is pleased to announce a strategic five-year partnership with Codelco, Chile’s state-owned mining company, to supply grinding balls made entirely from recycled materials for the El Teniente mine. This initiative aligns with Codelco’s commitment to reducing the carbon intensity of its strategic supplies by 25% by 2030 and reflects our shared dedication to sustainable mining practices.

This breakthrough partnership will allow Codelco’s El Teniente Division to reduce its carbon footprint by 40,000 tons of CO₂ annually!

This collaboration not only underscores our dedication to environmental stewardship but also sets a new standard for circular economy models in the mining industry. By reprocessing worn grinding balls and metal waste from El Teniente, we are contributing to a more sustainable future for mining operations.

We look forward to expanding this circular supply model to Codelco’s Andina division in 2025, further solidifying our commitment to innovative solutions that benefit both our partners and the environment.
