Samarco – 43 years pursuing different ways of mining

24/08/2020


Samarco was born 43 years ago. With a trajectory marked by challenges, lessons learned and innovation. From the processing and transformation of low-grade iron ore to being a leader in slurry transportation through pipelines, the company believes that it is indeed possible to do mining differently.

On this date, Samarco reinforces its commitment to evolution, valuing its history, without ever forgetting the impacts of the Fundão dam failure, looking for new approaches to the resumption of its operations.

With the implementation of the new Tailings Disposal System, employing filtration and dry stacking technologies, the company seeks greater safety in its processes and will be able to once again generate value for society.
