The Multicargas Terminal at Port of Açu Received More Than 1,900 Trucks with Over 70,000 Tons of Spodumene for Shipment. However, It Reached a Record Cargo Movement in Just One Operation.

Initially, the client’s mineral left Port Açu and went directly to China. Therefore, due to confidentiality, Port of Açu cannot disclose the name of the ship and the company that is the client and is involved in this operation.

In this case, the company issued a statement on the matter: “This milestone reinforces the competitive advantage of our terminal, which has a complete structure to accommodate large vessels, with a seamless operation, customized service, and efficient solutions.”

In 2022, T-MULT handled about 1.7 million tons, which is a record annual amount since its activities began in 2016. The terminal also recorded 5.9 million tons with 48 clients in its portfolio, and the average annual growth was 45%. Thus, it is preparing demand to increase expansion.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

For the economist José Kobori, the USA gained a trump card to “blackmail” Brazil and undermine China’s influence by classifying the PCC and Comando Vermelho as terrorists, increasing the power to pressure companies, banks, and even Pix.

BYD Atto 2 DM-i flex prepares to debut in Brazil with a plug-in hybrid engine, national assembly in Camaçari, competitive pricing, and targets Creta and T-Cross in a battle that promises to heat up the compact SUV market.

Processors can become 1,000 times faster with a new device that uses light pulses, operates in 40 picoseconds, and reduces the heat that stalls data centers.

Noise in the sky frightened residents: NASA confirms that a meteor exploded over New England with a force equivalent to 230 tons of TNT
