What caused the mine San Jose to colapse in Chile?
It was caused by rock explosions, several hundreds of metres underground.

The safety measures in the mine were, at least, mediocre. More than 80 accidents had happen before 2010. It was the main reason which it was closed in 2007, but it was re-opened in 2008.

How does the country of Chile make money?
English teachers or native speakers of English are in demand and can make money teaching if you are starting without resources.
You don't make money in Chile unless you already have some. Depending on your area, investing in cabañas or opening your own business. If you have a quality service or product at affordable prices you could do well in anything. A construction company that uses USA standards and materials is needed. Also, any franchise that does not exist here yet, like Victoria Secrets. Importing popular items such as clothing, perfumes or anything name brand from USA, or from Santiago if available, and selling them on your own. Second hand clothing stores are popular and seem to do good.
Is fishing the backbone of Chile's economy?
No, fishing is not the backbone of Chile's economy. Mining is, in most people's opinions, the backbone of Chile even though they do rely on more than that. Although I'm pretty sure it's mining because of Chile's large amount of both coal and gold.
