On Friday (Sept. 13th), Samarco received a visit from the CEO of the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM), Tom Butler, who came to Brazil to participate in Exposibram and to learn a little more about the company. Butler was received at the Germano Complex in Mariana (MG) by the Germano Operations general manager, Juarez Lopes de Morais, and the geotechnical manager, Cesar Alves.
Tom Butler visited the Monitoring and Inspection Center (MIC), which operates 24/7 and is part of the company’s Monitoring System. The system currently has about 840 pieces of state-of-the-art equipment to monitor Samarco’s geotechnical structures in Minas Gerais and Espirito Santo.
Created to support and promote safer mining, ICMM is an international organization that brings together 25 mining companies and 33 regional associations.
ICMM associate members are committed to complying with its 10 sustainable development principles and its eight position statements.
