Opportunity in infrastructure

Brazil is one of the countries with the highest mineral potential in the world. Opportunities in infrastructure Abundant geological potential to be explored in an 8,514, km2 continental extension Infrastructure undergoing an expansion process Skilled labor creates an environment conducive to the growth of mining and metallurgy in the country. A country with ample tradition in mining An enormous territory with the potential for great mineral reserves

NEW CHALLENGES IN MINING

Mining Process Indigenous Areas Indigenous Areas: 13% of National Territory 25% of the Amazon Region New Challenges Mining in Indian Lands

New Challenges Brazilian Continental Platform Aggregates Gold Diamond Coal Phosphate Cobalt Others Territory emerged Exclusive economic zone Extension of the continental platform referred to the UN Total area of continental and marine

New Challenges Modification of Monopoly - exploration and mining of Nuclear Ores Inasmuch as Brazil has only 30% of the territory prospected for Uranium, the country ranks as the 7th richest nation in the world in this mineral. Currently Brazil has a reserve of 310 thousand tons, but there are estimates that it has more than 800 thousand tons, which will bring the country to rank the second or third largest reserves in the world.

Investment opportunities in the BRAZIL Conclusion BRAZIL TODAY Macroeconomic stability Sustainable growth Need to expand and improve its infrastructure Needs to increase the area of geological and geophysical mapping Great opportunities for investments in mining companies
