Capstone Copper’s Mantoverde copper and gold mine in northern Chile said on Wednesday it is presenting a new contract offer to workers in a bid to end a strike that began on Saturday, after talks over new labor contracts broke down.

The offer includes paying out the equivalent of $17,400 per worker, the company said.
