Peruvian protesters have temporarily lifted blockades of a key mining highway in the country's south, sources told Reuters on Wednesday, a boost for activity at major copper mines that saw activity hit in recent weeks as supplies were choked off.
The "mining corridor" highway, an important transport route for mines including Glencore Plc's Antapaccay and Las Bambas, owned by China's MMG Ltd, has in recent days been unblocked after weeks of protests, the sources said.
