Difficulty of Access to Lands for Mineral Exploration in Brazilian Mining Are One of the Main Factors That Hinder Investments

The mining and metals sectors are currently facing a period of significant challenges, particularly regarding the development and adoption of new technologies and investments to reduce the environmental and social impacts caused by mining, metallurgy, and mineral exploration.

Mineral Exploration Indicates Positive Performance

The Brazilian mineral exploration industry had the best performance among economic sectors during the pandemic, with growth across all states, beyond iron ore producers. During this period, exports increased by 11% and reached R$ 37 billion, with 371 million tons shipped. The trade balance grew by 28% with a surplus of US$ 32 million.

Beyond the economic weight of the activity, the federal government also established the Mining and Development Plan (PMD) in 2020, which aims to enhance activity in the country through 10 plans and 110 goals covering various aspects of the mineral agenda, effective between 2020 and 2023.

“Just like my company, many others suffer from one of the biggest obstacles that hinder mass investments in mining: the licensing process,” stated the CEO of Oz Minerals Brazil, Carlos Gonzales.

Most of the time, it is much easier and less bureaucratic to operate in the mining sector in Australia and Canada than in Brazil; the burdensome licensing process is very slow and discouraging,” highlighted the CEO of Appian Capital Brazil, a UK private investment firm focused on mining projects, Paulo Castellari.

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.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

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.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

At over 8 meters tall and resembling a trunk, this creature dominated the Earth 400 million years before the dinosaurs — and science still doesn’t know what it was.

China inaugurates a 24 km monster that is a bridge, tunnel, and museum at the same time — and 90,000 cars pass through it every day.
