PrintChilean industrial output declined the most in at least a decade in March, falling to a six-year low following the devastating Feb. 27 earthquake that shuttered factories and closed ports.
Copper production expanded 5 percent in March from a year earlier, the statistics institute said, while production of molybdenum fell 23 percent.
