07:35 AM EDT, 10/14/2026 (MT Newswires) -- BHP Group (BHP.L) and the supervisors' union at its Escondida copper mine in Chile entered a tentative deal to avert a strike, Reuters reported Wednesday, citing two sources familiar with the talks. The London-listed mining giant began negotiations Wednesday after the union threatened to strike if both sides failed to reach a new collective labor deal. The agreement awaits approval from union members in the coming hours. BHP did not immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
