According to the CEO of Long Steel LATAM and Mining Brazil and president of ArcelorMittal Brazil, Jefferson De Paula, the company is optimistic about the future need from industries that require steel.

ArcelorMittal’s investment underscores the company’s commitment to the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, and its communities that are part of its operations. The state, which is one of the largest producers of iron ore and steel in the country, will see its production increase by about one million tons per year for use in high-value-added products.

The production of iron ore will see an increase of 4.9 million tons per year. These expansions will also lead to an equivalent increase in tax contributions to municipalities, the Union, and the State.
