Historical Places, Historic, Interesting Places, Historic Settlements

La Oficina salitrera Pedro de Valdivia es un poblado cercano a Tocopilla que data de 1930. Junto a ella se encuentran las oficinas salitreras José Francisco Vergara, Coya Sur y María Elena (antigua Coya Norte).

En el año 1911, Guggenheim Brothers compró Chuquicamata y desarrolló esa gigantesca mina de cobre, bajo la conducción del ingeniero Elías Antón Cappelen Smith. Durante más de una década, Cappelen estudió la tecnología de la industria salitrera y diseñó un nuevo método para extraer y purificar el caliche patentado como Sistema Guggenheim, aplicado por primera vez en 1926 en la Oficina Salitrera María Elena.
