GUTIERREZ-VINUALES, Alejo. Chuquicamata: Copper Mining Industrial Heritage in Chile. Apuntes [online]. 2008, vol.21, n.1, pp.74-91. ISSN 1657-9763.

Facing Chuquicamata's recent abandonment as residential area due to the mining process, it becomes necessary to value its qualities as industrial heritage. Therefore, it is important to study not only the relevant built structures, but also the geographical and historical space that has been transformed by this mining project during almost a century.

Palabras clave : Chuquicamata; Mining Villages; Copper Mining Towns; Industrial Heritage.
