Vale creates company to sell sand from iron ore tailings

Fabiano Carvalho Filho, Vale’s Chief Business Officer , Fábio Cerqueira, CEO of Agera, and Rafael Bittar, Vale’s Technical Executive Vice President.

The mining giant in recent years was involved in two tailings dam collapses in Brazil that left hundreds dead and caused serious environmental damage, leading it to search for ways to reduce its reliance on such structures. The volume is still small compared to the about 47 million tons of tailings that came from Vale’s operations in 2022, but the firms hope Agera will help sand output grow in coming years.

“The goal is to boost circular mining and reduce our dependence on structures for the disposal of tailings.”
