SANTIAGO, July 15 (Reuters) - Chile's state-run copper miner Codelco expects production to be "stationary" in the coming years, with output at a level similar to its current one, chairman Bernardo Fontaine said on Wednesday.
He added that an expansion at the El Abra copper mine, where Codelco is a partner alongside majority-owner Freeport McMoran, could be a good option to focus investment.
