LIMA, April 10 (Reuters) - Peru expects to produce 2.8
million tonnes of copper in 2023, Minister of Energy and Mines
Oscar Vera said in a news conference Monday.
Peru, the world's no. 2 producer of the red metal, saw
production affected late last year and at the beginning of this
year after protests and road blockades spurred by the ouster and
arrest of former President Pedro Castillo.
