WAGE NEGOTIATIONS
Supervisers at Chile's Escondida mine and mine operator BHP decided on Tuesday to extend negotiations over a labour contract for another day in a last-ditch attempt to stave off a strike at the world's largest copper deposit, the union told Reuters.

The union said the two groups had not yet completed talks and would continue into Wednesday.
