The gold mining market is increasingly flourishing in the international mineral sector, and now, the Gold Fields group seeks new assets for its portfolio and will acquire Yamana Gold for a total of R$ 6.7 billion. The announcement was made last Tuesday, and the South African mining company is now turning its attention to gold production in Yamana Gold’s assets, particularly exploration in Brazilian territory, due to the high mineral reserves.

Additionally, it was announced that the buying and selling procedures will be finalized in the second semester of 2022, aiming to preserve all commitments with stakeholders until then. Furthermore, Yamana Gold also confirmed that the Gold Fields group will uphold the company’s ideals in pursuing ESG practices in gold production and will focus on investing in the expansion of mineral exploration in the company’s assets in the national territory and other countries.

South African Miner Aims to Become the Third Largest Gold Production Company by 2024, Following the Acquisition of Yamana Gold’s Assets

With the acquisition of Yamana Gold and control of the company’s assets after the completion of the billion-dollar transaction, the Gold Fields group will become the fourth largest gold production company in the world. According to the group itself, expectations are to reach third place in the ranking by the end of 2024. Thus, the company’s main investment over the next two years will be in expanding mineral exploration.

Jacobina Mineração Yamana Gold issued a statement regarding the sale of the company, commenting on the future of mining in the Jacobina region, with the company’s sale to Gold Fields: “Regarding the operation in Jacobina, Gold Fields demonstrates that the municipality is part of its investment and growth plan and that the excellent results in safety, ESG, production, and operational cost of Jacobina were some of the points that attracted investors for the realization of the investment.”

Finally, the companies highlighted that the deal will create a mining company with annual gold production around 3.4 million troy ounces, surpassing the South African rival AngloGold Ashanti, ensuring Gold Fields an even greater presence in the mining sector within the international market.

A giant half-ton ring fell in Kenya from space, and more than a year later, scientists still do not know where it came from.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

For the first time, scientists have mapped the Etna magma system in almost real time and discovered where the volcano was storing large volumes of molten material before years of eruptions, revealing an underground reservoir that fills and reorganizes like a living organism beneath the mountain.

More than 1,500 Chinese workers transformed an entire railway station in just one night and reduced a 7-hour journey to 90 minutes with a high-speed line of 200 km/h.

Brazilian city becomes a global destination after attracting tourists who travel up to 10,000 km to visit a sanctuary with 11 giant saints up to 10 meters tall, open 24 hours and located along a highway in SP.

JBL Flip Essential 3 SE is launched with 30W of power (20W + 10W), Bluetooth 5.4, Auracast for multiple connections, IP67 water and dust resistance, up to 12 hours of battery life, and a price of approximately R$ 660 in China.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

Pernambuco paradise with 59% of preserved area advances with R$ 2 billion in e-methanol, aims for 900 tons/day, grows 38.6% and builds electrified terminal of 400 thousand TEUs.

Brazil may have railways back on the map, but it will need the government: a study reveals 7,412 km ready for reactivation, a cost of R$ 75 billion, 61 sections analyzed, and none viable without public funding.

The USA and Australia reach a billion-dollar agreement of $3.5 billion, focusing on the refining of strategic rare earth metals, nickel, gallium, graphite, magnesium, and tungsten to challenge China’s dominance in critical minerals.

Brazil exported tons of rare earth mining to Canada last week and is targeting the United States and China to sell critical minerals used in permanent magnets, electronics, electric vehicles, wind turbines, nuclear energy, and defense.

The government may create a state-owned company rival to Vale in Brazil to explore rare earths, which are highly sought after by the USA and China due to their significance in today’s global technology landscape.

The exploration of rare earths, lithium, copper, tin, and other critical minerals has surged in the last five years, encroaching on 278 indigenous lands, and the mining boom raises alarms in Brazil.

Under layers of ice that feed entire rivers, Argentina paves the way to explore copper, lithium, and gold in regions of extreme altitude and could unlock up to $165 billion in exports, placing one of the largest freshwater reserves in South America at the center of a new global mineral rush.
