Vale's Water Usage Reduction: Mining company Vale plans to eliminate water use in iron ore processing at its Carajas mines by 2027, transitioning to dry processing methods which will reduce waste and the need for new tailings dams.
Increased Pellet Feed Production: The Gelado Project aims to double production of high-quality pellet feed from reused tailings by 2026, contributing to Vale's goal of achieving 10% of total annual production from "circular mining" by 2030.
