Now the municipality of Goianorte, located 256 km from the capital of Tocantins, is preparing to receive the manganese extraction project, which has a production prospect of up to 500 thousand tons of manganese per year.

The Project Belongs To Continental Manganese Ore Exportation

The project, which belongs to the company Continental Manganese Ore Exportation, is still in the final approval phase by ANM – National Mining Agency.

The area, which totals 12 thousand hectares of underground resources, has the capacity to generate over 600 direct jobs when production reaches its limit. Currently, the project has only 20 direct workers.

Ameto Monitors And Promotes The Segment In Tocantins

In Tocantins, the State Mining Agency (Ameto) is responsible for monitoring and promoting the segment. According to the agency’s president, geologist Aparecido Giacometto, activities have been further developed in recent years.

 “Over the years, we have noticed significant growth in the mining sector in Tocantins. More companies are coming to the state, seeking more information about the region’s abundant mineral resource potential. We have all the conditions to stand out on the national scene, which adds opportunities and new technologies, thus generating more jobs and income for both the State and the municipalities involved,” highlights President Giacometto.
