SANTIAGO, Sept 30 (Reuters) - The world's biggest copper

miner, Chile's Codelco, has named Gonzalo Lara Skiba

as vice president of integrating operations at Andina, a role in

which he will spearhead a shared mine plan between Codelco's

Andina and Anglo American's Los Bronces.

"This vice presidency faces the challenge of transforming

the strategic agreement into concrete and sustainable

operations," Codelco said in a statement.

Cesar Jimenez Soto will take over Lara Skiba's current role,

becoming interim General Manager of the Ministro Hales mine in

November.
