New Government Policy of Brazil Accelerates Investments in Strategic Minerals and Strengthens the Climate Agenda Toward COP30.

Government of Brazil Creates Unprecedented Bonds to Attract Investments in Strategic Minerals and Accelerate the Energy Transition by 2050

The Government of Brazil announced this Friday (11/14) a new policy that changes the course of mining, by authorizing the issuance of debentures with tax benefits for projects related to strategic minerals.

The measure, signed by the Minister of Mines and Energy, Alexandre Silveira, in the Official Gazette, comes into effect nationwide and intends to attract billions in private investments to strengthen the national industry.

The initiative arises during COP30 in Belém (PA), marking Brazil’s commitment to climate neutrality by 2050.

Strategic Mining Takes Center Stage in the Country’s Climate Agenda

According to Alexandre Silveira, the new policy represents a turning point.
“Today we mark the beginning of a new era for the Brazilian mineral sector. We are laying the foundations for Brazil to become, in the coming decades, an essential player in the global economy, driving the energy transition”, the minister stated.

He emphasizes that the country wants to stop being merely an exporter of raw materials. Thus, the goal is to consolidate a complete production chain, with greater added value and a direct impact on Brazilian technological development.

Investments May Reach R$ 5.2 Billion Per Year

The new model foresees that up to 49% of the raised funds can be applied to mining and development, as long as they are associated with mineral transformation.
In total, the estimated investments reach R$ 5.2 billion per year, as follows:

R$ 3.7 billion for mineral transformation
R$ 1.5 billion for mining and processing

This division, therefore, prioritizes projects that strengthen national production of strategic minerals, reducing dependence on imported inputs.

Priority Projects Include Nickel, Cobalt, and Lithium

The policy paves the way for key ventures in the new green economy. Among those that may be included are:

Projects for nickel sulfate and cobalt in São Paulo (SP) and Pará (PA)
Units for lithium carbonate in Minas Gerais (MG)

These materials are essential for battery manufacturing, storage systems, and electric motors — pillars of decarbonization.

Therefore, the measure directly strengthens Brazil’s competitiveness in sectors related to the energy transition.

Policy Relies on Recent Legal Framework

The portaria is based on the Decree No. 11.964/2024, which regulates incentivized debentures linked to the mining sector.
The final text underwent public consultation and received technical adjustments before official publication.

Thus, the Government of Brazil reinforces legal security and creates concrete conditions to increase investments in the sector.

Brazil Seeks Global Leadership in Strategic Minerals Before COP30

The new policy integrates a broader strategy, led by the Federal Government, to position the country at the top of the strategic minerals chain.
Among complementary actions is the National Policy for Critical and Strategic Minerals, which strengthens mineral and energy security.

By reinforcing this alignment, Minister Silveira stated:
“We are positioning Brazil at the global forefront of the energy transition. We don’t want to be mere suppliers of raw materials, but protagonists in the value chain of essential minerals for the sustainable future of the planet.”

This statement summarizes the focus of the initiative: to transform mineral potential into sustainable development, innovation, and competitiveness — elements that Brazil wants to showcase at COP30, which will be held in Belém in 2026.

New Green Economy Accelerates With Support from Mining

The choice for debentures focused on strategic minerals shows that the Government of Brazil bets on mining as a driver of the energy transition.

Furthermore, the policy stimulates industrialization, creates new opportunities for skilled jobs, and strengthens high value-added production chains.

With this, the country takes a decisive step to establish itself as a protagonist in the new green economy while attracting global investments in a sector deemed essential for the future.

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.
